Rafique Adam C.
AI-Native Full-Stack Developer | AI Automation, Next.js, Stripe
AI-native full-stack developer. I build web apps, AI features and automations end to end, and I'm the one you call when money or data must be right. Live work: EyesOnGround, Uretia. 🛠️ WHAT I BUILD 💻 Full-stack web apps: React and Next.js front ends on NestJS and Node.js APIs, written in TypeScript, with PostgreSQL and Prisma. 🤖 AI features: Claude and Gemini API integrations. For example, a members' chat product that remembers earlier conversations using PostgreSQL alone, with no separate vector database. ⚙️ Automations: HighLevel and Zapier workflows, connections between business tools through their APIs, and Python scripts that fetch and tidy data. 🩺 Rescue work: apps that were built fast with AI tools and now need someone to make them safe, tested and stable. 🌐 SEE IT LIVE (links in my portfolio) 🔍 EyesOnGround: a US marketplace for remote pre-bid inspections, which I built end to end. Buyers book an inspection and pay into Stripe escrow. Verified local agents claim the job, deliver photos, video and notes, and get paid only when the buyer approves the report. 🐄 Uretia: a Turkish-language livestock and farm marketplace, also built end to end: search by province, district and price, a map of listings, a verified-seller badge, price pages and calculators. 🚚 Choomiie: I am the sole backend engineer (NestJS, Prisma, PostgreSQL) on a Ghana transport platform for haulage, rides and parcels, with a mobile-money wallet, escrow released on delivery, and WhatsApp booking. These are young products, so judge them on how they are built, not on user numbers. I'm glad to walk you through any of them. 🧠 HOW I WORK WITH AI I use AI coding tools every day to move fast, then I review, test and own every line that ships. AI gives me the speed. The care is mine: 🧪 Tests that prove something. On one marketplace backend I checked the tests by deliberately breaking the code. One green test run had hidden four safety checks that could be deleted with every test still passing. 🔁 Every real bug gets a regression test, and I confirm it by undoing the fix and watching the test fail. 💬 I ask questions before writing code, give honest timelines, and document what I hand over. 🔒 WHY BUYERS TRUST ME WITH THE REST Payments is where mistakes cost real money, so I build everything that way. 💳 In production: Stripe and Stripe Connect (marketplace escrow and payouts), iyzico with 3-D Secure checks, Fygaro payment links, Paystack and PayFast, plus Sumsub identity checks. ✅ I fixed a live 3-D Secure callback that had stopped verifying. ✅ I locked each sale's platform fee at the moment of sale, so a later rate change cannot re-price it. ✅ I closed 4 cross-tenant data leaks before a SaaS product's second customer went live. ➕ Also: LLM and Claude API integration, workflow automation, SaaS builds. 📩 START HERE Send me three lines: what you want built or automated, who will use it, and your deadline. I will reply with questions and a rough plan. 🕒 30+ hrs a week, Accra (UTC): full working-day overlap with Europe, mornings with US East. Portfolio site : rafique.dev
