I build systems that ship code, orchestrate workflows, and put AI agents to work.

Full-stack engineer with 3+ years shipping Node.js and React/Next.js platforms on AWS and GCP — from a DNS security SaaS serving 5,000+ users to Temporal-orchestrated pipelines that let LLM agents source and submit job applications on their own.

Where I've worked

Three roles, one thread: taking systems from fragile to reliable, and from manual to automated.

Software Engineer

— CoBlack Sep 2025 – Present
  • ▸Architecting an AI-powered job-application platform that sources listings and submits applications through agent-driven automation.
  • ▸Building Temporal workflows that give long-running job-processing pipelines durable state, automatic retries, and safe recovery from failure.
  • ▸Shipping RESTful and real-time APIs with Feathers.js and Node.js, wired end-to-end into React/Next.js clients.
  • ▸Instrumenting services with OpenObserve logging, tracing, and alerting to cut incident detection time.
  • ▸Integrating LLMs and AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor AI) into the team's delivery workflow.

Software Engineer

— Secure Domains · Remote, Dubai Dec 2023 – Sep 2025
  • ▸Developed and maintained secure-domains.org, an enterprise-grade DNS security SaaS serving 5,000+ users globally.
  • ▸Improved platform performance by 25% through targeted refactoring, lazy loading, and state-management optimisation.
  • ▸Built responsive, WCAG-compliant React.js interfaces with verified cross-browser compatibility.
  • ▸Deployed and operated production infrastructure on AWS (EC2, S3, Security Groups, Elastic IPs) behind Nginx and PM2, containerised with Docker and Kubernetes.
  • ▸Partnered with product and security teams to deliver threat-protection modules and customer-facing reporting tools, and set code-review standards that shortened onboarding.

Software Engineer Intern

— PureLogics, Lahore Aug 2023 – Nov 2023
  • ▸Built interactive, responsive frontends in React.js and Tailwind CSS to design specification.
  • ▸Integrated Express.js backend services with the client layer for reliable data flow.
  • ▸Optimised MongoDB data operations through indexing and query tuning.
  • ▸Improved system stability through systematic debugging, refactoring, and documentation.

Things I've built

AI Document Intelligence Platform

A full-stack document-processing platform with a Next.js frontend and a JWT-hardened Node.js/Express backend. Google Cloud Vision OCR and Cohere's LLM automate PDF analysis and structured content extraction.

Next.js Express.js Cloud Vision Cohere LLM

Driver Drowsiness Detection System

A real-time driver-safety app pairing a Node.js/Express layer with a Python FastAPI microservice for ML inference — facial and eye-state detection via OpenCV Haar Cascades, with the vision service scaling independently.

FastAPI OpenCV Python Node.js

Full-Stack E-Commerce Platform

An end-to-end commerce system covering cart, checkout, and order management, with Stripe and PayPal payment gateways, Auth0 authentication, and live cart/order-status updates over Socket.io.
