Hi, I'm

Haziq Nazeer

SoftwareEngineerbuilding things for the web

I help startups and businesses ship production-grade backends, real-time features and AI-powered products — NestJS, FastAPI, Next.js, PostgreSQL and AWS. I've taken systems from idea to launch and tuned them to scale past hundreds of thousands of users. Available for freelance projects, contract work and MVP builds.

Who I Am

About Me

I build secure, real-time and AI-powered backend and full-stack systems with NestJS, FastAPI, Next.js, PostgreSQL and AWS. Promoted from intern to Associate Software Engineer within a year, I care about shipping production systems that are reliable, scalable and well-engineered.

My focus is the backend — real-time pipelines, AI integrations, secure auth and clean data models — but I'm comfortable across the full stack. Whether it's a streaming inference pipeline or a rock-solid API, I care deeply about the craft. Currently open to relocating to Germany / the EU.

How I Can Help

What I Build For You

Productised services backed by real, shipped systems. Hire me for a focused build, an ongoing contract, or to rescue something that's outgrowing its codebase.

Production REST & real-time APIs

Backend & API Engineering

Robust, well-structured backends in NestJS, FastAPI or Express — authentication, role-based access, background jobs and a PostgreSQL schema indexed to scale from day one.

REST / WebSocket APIsAuth & RBACPostgres + Prisma/TypeORMRedis & queues

Ship AI features that actually hold up

AI & LLM Integration

Streaming AI chat, voice agents and document/vision analysis with Anthropic Claude and OpenAI — provider fallbacks, rate-limit handling and output validation so a flaky model never breaks your product.

Streaming chatVoice (Realtime / WebRTC)RAG & taggingVision & PDF analysis

Idea → deployed product

Full-Stack Web Apps & MVPs

End-to-end builds on Next.js + a typed backend — dashboards, auth, billing and admin tooling. Ideal for founders who need a credible MVP shipped fast without cutting corners.

Next.js / ReactEnd-to-end featuresAdmin dashboardsDeploy & CI/CD

Live features that stay up under load

Real-Time Systems

WebSocket and WebRTC features — live chat, voice, presence and notifications — with keep-alive, reconnection and backpressure handling so sessions don't drop mid-use.

WebSockets / Socket.IOLive chat & voicePush (FCM)Presence & reconnection

Make a slow product fast

Performance & Scaling

Query tuning, caching, keyset pagination, N+1 elimination and queue offloading — the work that keeps response times flat as your data grows past hundreds of thousands of rows.

DB indexing & query tuningRedis cache-asideKeyset paginationBullMQ/Celery jobs

Billing done right

Payments & Subscriptions

Stripe and RevenueCat integrations — one-off payments, subscriptions, multi-seat team plans and signature-verified, raw-body webhooks that won't silently drop revenue.

Real outcomes and honest collaboration — a few words from the people I've built for.

Verified
Haziq rebuilt the real-time layer of our telehealth platform and the difference was night and day — consultations stopped dropping and the streaming felt instant. He owned the problem end to end and kept us in the loop the whole way.
DR

Daniel Reyes

Founder & CEO

Verified
We needed AI features shipped fast but done properly. He handled the streaming, the provider fallbacks and the edge cases we hadn't even considered. Delivered ahead of schedule and the code was clean enough that our team could build on it.
SB

Sofia Bennett

Product Lead

Verified
Our API was buckling as we grew. After his work on indexing, caching and pagination, response times dropped dramatically and stayed flat as traffic climbed. He genuinely understands how to build for scale, not just to make it work.

Marcus Lindqvist

CTO

Verified
Stripe billing with team seats and webhooks is the kind of thing that silently breaks and costs you money. Haziq set it up so it just works — verified webhooks, multi-seat invites, the lot. Zero billing incidents since launch.

Aisha Karim

Co-founder

Verified
He took our idea and turned it into a deployed MVP we could put in front of investors. Full-stack, auth, dashboard, the works — and he was upfront about trade-offs instead of over-promising. Exactly what you want in a contractor.

Tom Hayes

Founder

Verified
Reliable, communicative and seriously good at the hard backend problems. Our live chat and notifications run through infrastructure he built and it has been rock solid under load. I'd hire him again without hesitation.
