Where is your product right now?
Every build starts from one of these three places.
The Stalled Build
A previous developer fell through, or it's half-finished and brittle. I take it over and get it shipped.
- Code recovery
- Stabilize
- Finish & ship
The AI Prototype
You built it in Lovable, Replit, or Cursor. Great for a prototype — the gap is making it production-real. I harden it for real users.
- Security audit
- Data & money-math fixes
- Scalable rebuild
Why founders trust me with the hard parts
I'm a senior developer who works with you directly — no hand-offs, no juniors.
No hand-offs.
You work directly with me, start to finish. No middle layer, no junior developers learning on your project.
The numbers are exact.
Real-estate and fintech don't forgive wrong math. I build correct, auditable financial logic — the part most builds get wrong.
Built to hold up.
Secure data, clean architecture, and systems that don't fall over when real users arrive — not just a demo.
I lead the build.
You bring the industry knowledge; I bring the technical judgment, make the calls, and ship. You don't have to manage me.

What founders say
Real words from clients I've built for. Top Rated Plus with 100% Job Success — verified on Upwork.
As a non-technical founder building a technical platform, Sikandar played a critical role in bringing my vision to life. He helped design and implement the website from front to back and demonstrated strong full-stack capabilities throughout. The direction evolved several times as I refined requirements, and he remained flexible, professional, and accommodating. I'd recommend Sikandar to anyone looking for a reliable developer who can move quickly, communicate clearly, and execute.
Sikandar has delivered outstanding quality of work. He drove the project with autonomy and has a solution-focused mindset toward creating unique, cost-saving, and data-smart solutions. He took on a large scope with a wide breadth of expertise. I would highly recommend working with Sikandar, who handles his work with expertise and professionalism.
Sikandar took the time to understand the vision behind my project and asked thoughtful questions to make sure the final product aligned with my goals. He provided realistic timelines, stuck to them, and delivered earlier than expected without sacrificing quality. What really stood out was his willingness to go above and beyond — he proactively handled extra tasks and improvements. The end result is a fully functional MVP I'm confident launching. I would absolutely work with him again.
Sikandar was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is professional, experienced, and brought valuable insights to the development of [my platform]. He wasn't afraid to offer constructive feedback and push back when it would improve the project, including steering me away from spending more than necessary. After reviewing the data and pricing, it's clear he understood the challenges long before I did and genuinely cared about my budget. His expertise and collaborative approach made the process smooth and efficient. Highly recommended!
How we'd work together
Phase 1from $500
The Build Plan
A low-risk start. I map your idea (or audit your current build or prototype) into a clear architecture, what's solid and what needs work, scope, timeline, and a fixed quote. You keep the plan even if you walk away — and the fee credits in full toward the build if we proceed.
- Technical spec
- Data & security plan
- Fixed-price quote + timeline
Phase 2
The Build
A working product in focused milestones, a demo every week, and you working directly with me throughout. Most MVPs ship in about 4 weeks.
- Direct access to me
- Weekly demos
- Launch & scaling support
Questions founders ask
Straight answers before we even talk.
How much does a full build cost?
Every build is quoted after the Build Plan, once the scope is clear. The Build Plan itself starts at $500, and that fee credits in full toward the build. Engagements are fixed-price, so you know the number before we start — no open-ended hourly surprises.
How long does it take?
Most MVPs ship in about 4 weeks, in weekly milestones with a demo each week. Larger builds and rescue projects are scoped with a realistic timeline in the Build Plan.
I already have a developer or a half-built product. Can you take it over?
Yes — that's the most common way I start. I audit what exists, tell you honestly what's solid and what needs rework, then stabilize it and get it shipped. You're not stuck with a stalled build or a brittle AI prototype.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do. On final payment, all code, data, and intellectual property are yours, and I build in your accounts and repositories wherever possible so nothing is locked to me.
What technology do you use?
Typically Next.js / React + TypeScript on the front end and Python / FastAPI (or Node) + PostgreSQL on the back end, deployed to modern cloud hosting. I choose per project, not by habit — and I can run local, open-source AI models when cost or data privacy calls for it.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes. Launch and scaling support is part of the build, and we can arrange ongoing maintenance or a retainer afterward if you want one.
How soon will you reply?
Within one business day. The fastest way to get started is to book a 30-minute call.
Tell me what you're building.
A 30-minute technical call — no sales pitch, just a straight conversation about your product and how I'd build it.
