Tareq M.
Full-Stack Dev & Architect | PHP, TypeScript, Serverless, AWS
I help businesses design, build, and scale high-performance web applications and complete system architectures. With 12+ years of experience, I focus on creating reliable, scalable, and cost-efficient platforms—not just features. I specialize in serverless and cloud-native architectures, building systems that scale automatically, reduce operational overhead, and optimize infrastructure costs. I take full ownership of the development lifecycle: from system design and infrastructure to deployment, scaling, and long-term maintenance. Core technologies: PHP / Laravel (Zend Certified) JavaScript / TypeScript / Node.js React.js / Next.js Vue.js / Nuxt.js (SSR) Architecture & system design: Serverless & distributed system architecture (AWS Lambda, event-driven systems, stateless design, caching strategies) AWS cloud architecture (Lambda, CloudFront, Lambda@Edge) REST API & GraphQL design (performance-focused, scalable APIs) Database design, optimization & migration (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, DynamoDB, MongoDB) Payment gateway integration (Stripe, PayPal, and custom solutions) Infrastructure & DevOps: Linux server administration CI/CD pipelines and automated deployments Performance optimization and cost control Debugging complex distributed systems in production I don’t just write code—I design systems that scale, perform, and last. I’m comfortable working across the full stack and making architectural decisions that directly impact business growth and stability. I’m highly adaptable and can quickly integrate new technologies into existing systems without compromising performance or reliability.
