Full Stack Developer
Zap Electric FZCO – Dubai, UAE
Sep 2023 – Present
- I chose the architecture and tech stack from scratch — selecting Laravel + Blade for the admin dashboard and designing the entire platform to support 6+ role-based access levels across orders, subscriptions, routes, deliveries, and inventory.
- Built the backend infrastructure and admin dashboard entirely solo, along with 60+ RESTful API endpoints consumed by the customer website and mobile app — with the platform live on Hostinger and handling 2,000+ concurrent users in testing.
- Managed the full integration lifecycle for Stripe subscription billing and Google Maps API for real-time driver route tracking — taking both from sandbox all the way through to the live environment.

- Independently built and maintained 4–5 large-scale SaaS ERP systems including a marriage hall booking platform and car carrier management system — working solo on most projects within an Agile environment with full ownership from requirements to deployment.
- Inherited a large, partially-built housing society platform — refactored the entire codebase, led the Laravel 6 to Laravel 9 migration, and brought all 9+ modules to a stable production state.
- Maintained a two-environment deployment workflow throughout the project — all changes validated on a dedicated testing server before being released to the live production server, followed consistently across every update.
- Proactively identified and resolved performance bottlenecks through query analysis and profiling — reduced page load time by 30% across the housing platform.
- Integrated CCTV image capture into the gate pass workflow for real-time visual verification and operational security.
- Delivered a platform handling 100k–150k gate pass transactions/month through the gate pass module alone, with all 9+ modules stable in production.

- Contributed to Exam 360 — an India-based examination & staff management platform — refactoring existing modules and developing new ones within an existing codebase.
- Independently built Exam 360 E-Learn from scratch — a companion LMS supporting course delivery, exam workflows, and student management.
- Developed an online order booking system for Al Haaj Bundoo Khan — a well-known restaurant brand — delivering a responsive customer-facing ordering experience against a real client brief.

- Converted an Adobe XD design into a fully responsive front-end using HTML, Bootstrap, and JavaScript — pixel-perfect handoff from design to code.
