About
Background, experience, and how I approach building software.
I'm a full-stack developer based in Islamabad, Pakistan, specialising in React, Next.js, Node.js, and MongoDB. I build and ship production systems that businesses depend on — from the data model up to the interface.
At Alphinex Solutions I develop internal enterprise tooling across the stack: React and Redux on the frontend, Next.js API routes and MongoDB schemas on the backend. I care about clean architecture, maintainable code, and systems that scale predictably as teams grow.
Alongside that I design AI-driven automations — integrating language models and workflow tooling to remove repetitive manual work — and take on selected freelance engagements: SaaS MVPs, internal dashboards, marketing sites, and third-party API integrations.

Work
A few things I've designed, built, and shipped to production.
FeaturedOfficially launched · Oct 2026Enterprise SaaS · Workforce Management
Multi-tenant workforce SaaS built from scratch with the team: time tracking, timesheets, scoped role-based permissions, projects and task boards, payroll, invoicing and finance reports, Stripe billing, and the backend for the StaffVertex desktop tracker.
FeaturedOfficially launched · Oct 2026Desktop App · Windows & macOS Time Tracker
A cross-platform desktop tracker with a Rust core: records offline to an encrypted local database, syncs on reconnect, and detects clock tampering so tracked hours hold up in a payroll dispute.
FeaturedBuilt & DeployedHealthcare SaaS · Hospital & Pharmacy Platform
A multi-tenant healthcare platform connecting hospitals, pharmacies and patients: timezone-safe appointment booking, a public pharmacy storefront with oversell-proof checkout, an append-only stock ledger, and a SuperAdmin control plane.
FeaturedShipping · v1.5Desktop App · Licensed Retail POS + Vendor Panel
A licensed, offline-first point of sale for retail shops and the vendor panel that sells it: billing, stock, customer credit, shifts and reports on the shop's own PC, with RSA-signed, machine-bound licences.
In use · Android APKMobile App · Offline Farm Ledger for Android
A fully offline Android ledger for a cotton farm in South Punjab: daily picking per worker priced per mann, advances and payments, season finances with real net profit, and PDF ledgers — in English, Roman Urdu and Urdu.
Built & DeployedHealthcare SaaS Module · Pharmacy Inventory & Storefront
The pharmacy side of the Simple Green Solutions healthcare platform: an append-only stock ledger, inventory and order management for each pharmacy, the PharmaStock storefront with oversell-proof multi-pharmacy checkout, and operator approval of pharmacies and products.

Testimonials
Feedback from the people I've built for.
“Abdul took a vague brief and came back with a clear plan, then shipped it ahead of schedule. The code was clean enough that our own team picked it up without a handover call.”
Muhammad Ibrahim
Product Lead, Private Client
“Fast, communicative, and genuinely thoughtful about the details we hadn't considered. He pushed back where it mattered, which is exactly what you want.”
Muhammad Safdar
Developer, Private Client
Writing
Notes on building for the web — architecture, performance, and lessons learned.
I joined StaffVertex, a time tracking and workforce management SaaS, as a developer building it from scratch, and now lead the team that launched it. What changed: planning every flow, code reviews, sprint planning, stakeholder conversations and the mistakes I made.
How we handle timezones and offline time tracking in the StaffVertex desktop time tracker: UTC timestamps, organization vs device timezones, sessions that cross midnight, DST edge cases, a monotonic clock for sleep and crashes, and three real bugs.
FAQ
Everything you might want to know before we start.
Full-stack web applications, SaaS MVPs, admin dashboards, marketing sites, and API work — mostly on React, Next.js, Node.js, and MongoDB. If it's on the web and it needs to be built properly, it's probably a fit.
Three ways: hourly for open-ended work, a fixed price for a defined scope, or a monthly retainer for continuous product work. Fixed-scope projects are quoted after a short call, and the price doesn't move unless the scope does.
Usually within three days for hourly and retainer work. Fixed-scope projects start once we've agreed the scope in writing — typically within a week.
Yes. A good share of my work is joining a project already in flight: fixing what's broken, paying down debt, or adding a feature the original team didn't plan for. I'll always give you an honest read on whether it's worth repairing or rebuilding.
I'm based in Islamabad, Pakistan (UTC+5) and work with clients worldwide. I overlap with European mornings and US mornings, and I reply to messages within 12 hours.
You do, in full, from the moment the final invoice clears. You get the repository, the deployment configuration, and written handover documentation.
Whether it's an MVP, a dashboard, or a rescue mission on an existing codebase — let's talk about it.
