Backend developer in Pakistan, grounded in PHP and Laravel
PHP and Laravel are where I started and what I know best. I build APIs and backend systems that are secure, fast and easy to maintain, and I apply the same engineering principles in whichever framework your project runs on.
- 5+ years building backends in PHP and Laravel

Backend principles I bring to any framework
Laravel taught me these, and they hold in Node.js or any other backend. The framework changes; the engineering doesn't.
- API design
- Predictable resources, versioning and one error format, documented so other teams can build on it.
- Data modelling
- A schema that fits the business, with migrations, constraints and indexes planned for real data volumes.
- Security
- Authentication, authorization and input validation on every endpoint, and no secrets in the code.
- Performance
- Measured first, then fixed: query tuning, caching, and queues for anything slow.
- Testing
- Automated tests around the logic that would hurt most if it broke.
- Maintainability
- SOLID, separation of concerns and clear names, so the next developer can pick it up quickly.

An AI enthusiast who still reviews every line
I follow AI tooling closely and use coding agents like Claude Code and OpenAI Codex in my work. They help me deliver faster and work across stacks; I keep the architecture, the reviews and the responsibility.
