Ahsan Ali Rehmani
Senior Full-Stack Engineer
Lahore, Punjab
I'm a full-stack software engineer with hands-on experience in building and deploying web applications. I collaborate effectively with teams and stay up to date with evolving technologies through regular practice and exploration.
Skills
I'm experienced with modern front-end frameworks like Vue and React, and backend development using Laravel. I also work comfortably with module bundlers like Vite and Webpack. My foundation includes core technologies such as MySQL, HTML, and CSS—along with related preprocessors and postprocessors. I also work with PostgreSQL, Redis, and Kafka for data handling and communication layers.
My programming experience spans PHP, Python, JavaScript, and SQL. I apply key software design principles such as SOLID, DRY, KISS, YAGNI, and GRASP to write clean, maintainable code. I'm familiar with containerization using Docker, and have experience with DevOps tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and Bash scripting, along with deploying projects on platforms like Hetzner and using S3 for storage. I manage deployments through Linux servers and web servers such as Nginx.
Beyond tools and frameworks, I focus on maintaining consistent coding standards and sharing best practices to improve team workflows. I value strong communication, collaborative problem-solving, and take initiative in leading and mentoring when needed.
