Backend Development
The core of my work. I design scalable backend architecture, model and optimize databases, and keep enterprise systems fast and reliable under real load.
I build and maintain web applications end to end — designing the backend architecture, modeling the data, exposing clean APIs, and shipping the interfaces that sit on top.
The core of my work. I design scalable backend architecture, model and optimize databases, and keep enterprise systems fast and reliable under real load.
I design and build RESTful APIs that connect internal tools and external systems — with real-time communication over sockets where it counts.
I build the interfaces that sit on my APIs — responsive, accessible, and grounded in clean markup and reactive components.
I design and ship complete systems — content management, customer relationship, learning, and order management platforms built to scale.
I keep delivery smooth with containerized environments, version control, and a pragmatic, multi-language toolkit.
I'm a Full Stack Developer with 4 years of experience building for the web. My day-to-day is PHP and Laravel — but my real focus is shipping software people depend on.
I build websites and full software products: content management, CRM, and learning management systems — modernizing legacy applications, designing APIs, and tuning databases so platforms stay fast as they grow. I've shipped for an international NGO, a government intelligence branch, and a growing e-commerce operation.
Platforms shipped across NGO, government, and commercial teams. Add live links & screenshots anytime.
A safe digital platform that lets children access social content through age-appropriate filtering in a distraction-free environment — built with security and performance front of mind.
An Elasticsearch-based search layer over a large literature corpus, dramatically improving information retrieval across a high-traffic content platform.
A full LMS powering online courses and structured training programs — built to support digital learning initiatives at scale with stable, repeatable delivery.
Backend architecture for an Order Management System with real-time updates over sockets. I lead it as both backend developer and project supervisor.
The Special Branch Information System — a governance and intelligence management platform. I built new modules, upgraded existing ones, and tuned database performance across the system.

Let's talk ↗My impact over the years — leading backend work and modernizing platforms across NGO, government, and commercial teams.
"Ghulam took our aging Laravel app and made it fast and stable again. He understands the system end to end and just gets things done."
"Reliable backend engineer. Our APIs and database work were handled cleanly and on time, with clear communication throughout."
"He didn't just write code — he trained the team on Laravel and integration workflows. A genuine multiplier for the whole unit."
"The Elasticsearch search he built transformed how we retrieve content across a huge library. Exactly what we needed."
"Thoughtful, fast, and dependable. He scoped the order management backend well and supervised delivery without drama."
