I’m Abdul Wasay Ahmed, a Full Stack Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable web and mobile applications across the MERN and MEAN stacks. I specialize in designing backend microservices with Node.js and creating responsive frontends with React and Next.js, while also delivering real-time features using Socket.io and event streaming with Kafka. I enjoy turning complex business workflows into production-grade software—whether that’s building ERPs, e-commerce platforms, dashboards, or Shopify apps—and I take ownership from architecture and API design through deployment and monitoring. I’ve worked extensively with AWS (EC2, S3), Docker, and Kubernetes, and I’m a mentor and team collaborator who consistently focuses on reliability, performance, and maintainable systems.
