ABOUT ME
Google Certified Web Developer
Google Certified Web Developer

Hi,

I’m a software engineer with nearly a decade of experience, currently exploring new opportunities. Over the years, I’ve worked extensively with JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, and Python, and have built applications using frameworks like React, Next.js, Angular (1 & 2+), FastAPI, Flask, and Spring Boot. Beyond development, I have hands-on experience with DevOps—working with Linux distributed systems, scalable infrastructure, and deploying to AWS, Azure, and VPS environments. I’m also skilled in managing data using Redis, SQL, and NoSQL databases.

I’m passionate about mentoring and supporting other developers. I actively contribute on platforms like Stack Overflow and Codementor during my free time. Outside of work, I enjoy gaming, fitness, and meeting new people for constructive and engaging conversations. I’m genuinely excited about this role and appreciate the opportunity

Thank you!

React is one of my favourite JavaScript librarys. I have used React for small to large scale projects. Writing unit-tests is second nature. I have also worked with Redux, GraphQL and many other librarys that go well with React.

Ikhlak is the man! I personally used him for some MongoDB issues that I was having and all I've got to say is if you have a problem, Ikhlak's got a solution!

Incredible work performance. I was working with Ikhlak for AMP set up for my WordPress site. The theme I have been using was bloated and had a lot of things that were need to be taken care out for AMP to work. Then I changed my way of thinking and Ikhlak had to re-do some code. NOT even one he mentioned it's too much work, or we need to charge more, or it can't be possible. The communication was amazing too. This guy is getting a bonus and future work from me. Thank you!
