About

I’m Farooq Shahzad, a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 5+ years of experience building end-to-end web products using Node.js, React, and MongoDB. I’ve worked across interactive research and data visualization platforms, high-speed eCommerce/matchmaking systems, incident-management SaaS, and real-time IoT/telematics workflows—bridging frontend user experiences with backend services.

I’m focused on clean API design, reliable data modeling, and high-concurrency asynchronous processing. From containerized releases with Docker to cloud deployments on AWS (including Lambda and IoT Core), I enjoy tuning performance under load, automating CI/CD, and integrating observability and messaging systems to deliver dependable, responsive platforms.
