Shahid Raza — Backend Engineer

Hi, I’m Shahid. I’m a software engineer who enjoys building systems, solving problems, and writing clean, maintainable code.

What I do

  • Design and implement scalable RESTful and GraphQL APIs
  • Build microservices and event-driven systems for real-time and background processing
  • Optimize data models, queries, and caching strategies for PostgreSQL, MongoDB and Redis
  • Containerize and deploy services with Docker and CI/CD pipelines
  • Ensure reliability with monitoring, logging, and automated testing

Core strengths

  • API design & documentation (OpenAPI / GraphQL)
  • Microservices & message-driven architectures
  • Database design, indexing, and query optimization
  • Observability: logging, metrics, and tracing
  • Test-driven development, integration tests, and contract testing
  • Clean code, SOLID principles, and pragmatic refactoring

Tech stack

  • Languages: Node.js (TypeScript), Java, Python, Go
  • Frameworks: NestJS, Express, Spring Boot, Flask
  • Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis
  • Infrastructure: Docker, Git, Linux, CI/CD (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.)

How I work

  • API-first mindset: design clear contracts and document them
  • Prioritize observability and error handling from day one
  • Keep services small and focused — minimize blast radius
  • Prefer incremental improvements and measurable outcomes
  • Collaborate closely with product and frontend teams to ship value faster

Open to

  • Backend systems, API design, and system architecture roles
  • Contract and freelance work on backend projects
  • Mentorship and code reviews for backend teams
