Saagar V.
Head Of Engineering | Dominating Agencies Solo
Why clients hire me: I build software that businesses actually run on. For 8+ years I've shipped full-stack products end to end, from the database to the dashboard, and one of my clients has worked with me for 8 years straight. Right now I'm Head of Engineering for a crypto media company, building their company operating system from scratch: a double-entry finance platform with live dashboards, invoicing, reconciliation, reporting and AI insights, running on Laravel, PostgreSQL and Notion. Every figure traces back to its source, because when money is involved, close enough isn't good enough. What I do best: • Full-stack web apps - Laravel, Vue 3, Inertia, React and Next.js, with clean architecture and proper testing • AI integrations - Claude and OpenAI APIs, automation tools, and AI assistants that cite their sources instead of guessing • Finance and data systems - ledgers, payments, reconciliation, reporting, and dashboards with numbers you can trust • SaaS and subscription platforms - I built FansyMe, a multi-creator content subscription platform, from the ground up • Shopify - custom themes (Liquid, Shopify 2.0), headless builds, app integrations, speed and conversion optimization. Stores I've built have generated millions in revenue, and I'm Conversion Optimization Certified • Automation and bots - Python, Telegram, X/Twitter and trading platform (MT5) integrations • Deployment - AWS, Linux servers, CI/CD, backups and monitoring My stack: PHP/Laravel, JavaScript/TypeScript, Vue, React, Next.js, Python, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Shopify (Liquid, Admin + Storefront APIs), Claude and OpenAI APIs, Notion API, AWS, Git. How I work: • A clear plan before code, honest timelines, and problems flagged early, not at the deadline • Progress you can see every day, no radio silence • I care about what keeps a product working after launch: tests, backups and monitoring If you need a senior developer who can own the build from idea to production, let's talk. Tell me what you're building and I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it.
