I started on legacy PHP and VB6 in healthcare software, where a bug is not a support ticket — it is a lab result. That shaped how I build: correctness first, then speed.
Since then I have worked end to end — modelling data, writing the API, building the interface, and owning the infrastructure it runs on. That last part matters more than it sounds. Knowing how the thing is deployed changes how you build it, and it means I can migrate an entire AWS estate across accounts, or size an auto-scaling group against a real load test, rather than handing the problem to someone else.
I am most useful on systems where something has to hold: peak traffic, financial approvals, clinical records, a migration that cannot take the product offline. If that is the shape of your problem, we will get along.
I am based in Lahore, Pakistan, and work with teams across time zones. Available for contract, freelance and full-time engagements.
