ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Tabrez, I am a Software Engineer with over five years of experience. I’ve worked with early stage Startups and also with Fortune 500 companies, making me an ideal engineer, who can thrive in fast-paced settings and also push deliverables consistently while meeting deadlines.
What I Know:
Full-Stack Development: The two languages I work with are JavaScript and Python, and the frameworks I use are: for the backend, I use Node.js and FastAPI; for the frontend, I use Next.js, React, Vue, and TypeScript.
Cloud & DevOps: I’m comfortable with Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, and Azure.
AI & Machine Learning: I’m familiar with Langchain and agentic development using the OpenAI API. I have hands-on experience building machine learning models—including binary classifiers, regressions, and neural networks with activation functions like ReLU and tanh.
Why I’m the Right Guy: If you need to transform your app into an AI-driven solution or require a full-stack engineer who can quickly adapt and deliver real results, I can help. My blend of technical skills, practical experience, and passion for innovation makes me a strong fit for dynamic projects.
