Hamza Hamid

Full-Stack Software Engineer

Islamabad, Pakistan

Full-stack software engineer, three years in. I build the whole product — ASP.NET Core and PostgreSQL underneath, Next.js and React Native on top — and I'd rather own a feature from the requirements conversation through to the store release than hand it across a boundary. Most recently that meant a clean-architecture .NET API with Stripe Connect driver payouts, Hangfire background jobs and SignalR real-time, plus the Expo client that consumes it. Three of the products I've shipped are live today. I've also put OpenAI and Gemini into real product flows, not demos.

Experience

Software Engineer — Devpulse Labs

Nov 2025 — Present · Abbottabad

  • Build three products end to end, Pakelp, SawariPool and MyPikups, across the API, the database, the web app and the mobile client.
  • Wrote the MyPikups backend: an ASP.NET Core 10 / PostgreSQL API on a clean-architecture split, ~41 endpoints covering booking, driver matching, flight tracking, payouts and messaging, with JWT access/refresh rotation and EF Core.
  • Integrated Stripe Checkout and Stripe Connect so drivers are paid out per period with commission split automatically; scheduled booking cleanup and ride reminders on Hangfire, and pushed live ride updates over SignalR.
  • Built the matching Expo / React Native client on top of that API, rider and driver flows, push notifications, location search and in-app messaging.
  • Mentor a two-person team and run the day-to-day loop with design and QA, scoping, review, release.
