Hiring overview

Contract & milestone work

Freelance full-stack developer, remote

Freelance full-stack web developer for remote contracts—milestones, clear scope, Next.js, Node.js, Laravel, PostgreSQL, and integrations.

When “freelance” is the real intent

You might not be hiring a full-time employee—you want a freelance full-stack developer who can plug into an existing repo, respect your process, and document enough that your staff engineers aren’t mystified later.

I’m open to senior remote roles (see the main portfolio) and to well-scoped contract work when timelines and ownership are clear.

Before the first call

Send stack, repo access expectations, approximate budget band if you have one, and whether you need part-time hours or a focused sprint. That avoids a discovery call that only repeats the services page.

Internal links help you (and search engines) see how these intents connect—same engineer, different way of describing the need.

Frequently asked questions

Remote delivery, the kinds of projects I take on, and how to start a conversation—without the agency fluff.

Do you work remotely?
Yes. I work with teams worldwide from Lahore, Pakistan. Time zone overlap and async communication are normal for how I ship.
What kinds of projects do you take on?
Custom web applications, APIs and backends (Node.js, Laravel), Next.js and React front ends, e-commerce and marketplace work, Shopify Liquid and WordPress migrations, payments and third-party integrations, and AWS-style cloud delivery when the product needs it.
How do I start a conversation about a project?
Use the “Discuss a project” email link on this site. The subject line is pre-filled so inquiries are easy to triage. A short note with goals, stack, and timeline is enough to begin.
Can you work with our existing codebase?
Often, yes. I regularly join products that already have users—documentation, migrations, performance work, and feature delivery in brownfield codebases are a core part of my experience.
What is your typical engagement model?
Scoped milestones or ongoing product work, usually on a contract basis. Details depend on the brief; we align on scope, communication rhythm, and deliverables before writing code.
