Who is Saiful Khan?

Full stack developer — frontend, backend, database and deployment, owned end to end.

Saiful Khan is a full stack developer with eight years of experience building production web applications end to end. He takes a product from an empty repository to a live, monitored system: interface, API layer, database schema, authentication, payments, deployment pipeline and handover documentation.

His day-to-day stack is TypeScript across the whole system — React 19 and Next.js on the client, Node.js and typed APIs on the server, PostgreSQL and Supabase for data, Redis for caching, Docker and CI/CD for delivery, deployed to Cloudflare, Vercel or AWS. One language, one type contract, from the form field to the database column.

He works the same way on every project: understand the business constraint first, design the data model and the API before any screen, then build the interface against real data. Performance budgets and error budgets are set at the start and enforced in CI, so releases stay boring and predictable. Recent builds include a commerce platform that lifted revenue 31%, an operations system that removed 1,900 manual hours a month, and a content platform serving 200k pages at sub-second response times.

Saiful works remotely with founders and product teams worldwide, either as the sole developer on a new build or embedded with an existing engineering team. Every engagement ends with a documented system your team owns and can operate without him. Available for new full stack projects — email hello@saifulkhan.com.

Data model before screens

Saiful Khan designs the schema and API contract first, so the interface is built against real data instead of guesses.

Performance is a feature

Sub-second interaction budgets, enforced in CI and measured on real devices, on every single release.

You own the codebase

Typed, tested and documented. Every build is handed over so your team can extend it without the original developer.

Process

How your project is built and run

Every engagement runs on the same delivery system: releases deployed automatically with zero downtime, requests served in under 100ms worldwide, every change reviewed in Git, and traffic monitored around the clock so issues are caught before your customers see them.

  • Automated deploys — new features go live in minutes, never breaking the site
  • Fast worldwide — sub-100ms responses from 34 edge locations
  • Clean, reviewed code — everything versioned and handed over to you
  • Monitored 24/7 — uptime, speed and errors tracked on every release

Frequent questions

Who is Saiful Khan?
Saiful Khan is a full stack developer with eight years of experience building complete web applications — frontend, backend, database and deployment. He works remotely with founders and product teams worldwide and hands over every build documented and owned internally.
What does a full stack developer like Saiful Khan actually do?
Everything between an idea and a live product: data model and API design, backend services, React interfaces, authentication, payments, testing, CI/CD, deployment and monitoring. One developer accountable for the whole system instead of three handoffs.
What technologies does Saiful Khan use?
TypeScript everywhere — React 19, Next.js and TanStack on the frontend; Node.js, typed REST and tRPC APIs on the backend; PostgreSQL, Supabase and Redis for data; Docker, GitHub Actions, Cloudflare, Vercel and AWS for delivery.
How much does a full stack project cost and how long does it take?
Most projects run between $10k and $75k depending on scope. Discovery and data modelling take one to two weeks, a working MVP typically ships in four to six weeks, and larger platforms run in two-week release cycles after that.
How can I hire Saiful Khan?
Email hello@saifulkhan.com or use the contact form on this site with your timeline, budget range and what you're building. You'll get a reply within one business day with a scope suggestion and next steps.
Does Saiful Khan work with existing engineering teams?
Yes — either as the sole developer on a new build or embedded with your team on frontend, backend or database work. Every decision is documented so the system stays owned internally after handover.
Does Saiful Khan handle deployment, performance and maintenance?
Yes. Deployment pipelines, monitoring, performance budgets enforced in CI and ongoing retained development are all part of the work, not separate add-ons.
