What I'm looking for

I seek senior full-stack roles where I can build scalable, secure applications, mentor teams, and work on impactful fintech projects with strong engineering practices.

I am a results-driven Software Developer with over six years of hands-on experience across the full Software Development Life Cycle, focused on building robust applications, websites, and APIs.

I specialize in full-stack JavaScript (MERN) and TypeScript, designing scalable REST and SOAP APIs with Node.js and NestJS, and architecting micro-frontends using React, Redux, React Query, and Single-SPA.

My work emphasizes performance and security — I have implemented load testing with JMeter, containerized deployments with Docker, CI pipelines in Jenkins, and secure coding practices including SSL, encryption, and OWASP checks.

I collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, document technical specifications and APIs (Swagger), and mentor peers through internal Lightning Talks; notable projects include BILL invoicing (Finmark), RAAST (State Bank of Pakistan), and AML solutions using IBM MQ.
