Aleem A.

Your Laravel app should be growing your business, not slowing your team down. I build, rescue and extend SaaS platforms, CRMs and internal tools in Laravel + Vue, and add AI features (Claude, OpenAI, RAG) that work in production, not just in demos. "Aleem is an outstanding coder. He works quickly without losing attention to detail... I would recommend Aleem without hesitation." (Upwork client) WHAT I DO BUILD: SaaS platforms, CRMs, client portals and admin dashboards, from database design to deployment. RESCUE: legacy Laravel and PHP apps that are slow, buggy or stuck on old versions. I audit first and fix what matters, without unnecessary rewrites. EXTEND: AI features like assistants, chatbots and smart forms using the Claude and OpenAI APIs, plus Stripe billing and third-party integrations inside your existing app. RECENT WORK • AI portfolio check tool and a Claude-powered website assistant for a wealth management firm, both live on the client's site • Multi-tenant booking and operations SaaS that runs a commercial sports venue every day (Laravel, Vue, Inertia) • CRM product built with an agency team: features, automation and CI/CD (Laravel, Vue) • Classifieds marketplace for working musicians (Laravel, MySQL) • Subscription billing architecture with Stripe and Laravel Cashier HOW I WORK • One person accountable for the whole stack, from database to UI • Clean, documented code your next developer can pick up • AI-assisted workflow (Claude Code, Cursor), with every line reviewed and tested by me • Written scope before code, regular updates, and an honest answer if I'm not the right fit • I prefer long engagements: I learn your product once and keep improving it • Working hours overlap with UK/EU mornings and US early mornings, with daily written updates TECH STACK Backend: Laravel, PHP 8, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, REST APIs Frontend: Vue 3, React, Inertia.js, Livewire, Tailwind CSS, JavaScript AI: Claude API, OpenAI API, chatbots and assistants inside web apps Cloud and DevOps: AWS, Docker, Laravel Forge, DigitalOcean, GitHub Actions CI/CD Integrations: Stripe, Twilio, webhooks, third-party APIs Not a fit: WordPress or Shopify sites, one-page websites, or lowest-price projects. Send me what you're building and where it's stuck. I'll reply with how I'd approach it, plus a rough timeline and estimate.
