Aftab Alam — CEO

Diligent and meticulous web platform architect/engineer. Highly radioactive to the word “Javascript” and aspire to use it everywhere. Since summer of 2010(6.5+ years) I'm following my passion and love for "all things web" and have engineered/architected web sites/apps of almost all types, size, and shapes using cutting-edge and best-of-breed languages, frameworks, tools and techniques. Always in awe of technical innovation, in my time and space, I try to follow-up, learn, master and bring beautiful patterns, practices, and syntactical dialects in my work and workflow, so that I am able to deliver performant and robust solutions which can stand the test of time and requirement. I strive for a clean, maintainable and easy-to-reason-about code. Besides, bringing digitally implementable ideas to life I find myself highly gravitated towards good design practices/UX(kind of fan) and of great use in ideation, product planning, wireframing, etc. Passionate, thoughtful, forward-thinking and disciplined software craftsmen and artisans inspire me. Driven people drive things fast! In bullet points, - I’m a Javascript Engineer/Architect/Lead - Can plan/engineer/devise beautiful UI, SPAs, Backend, APIs, etc. - Use frameworks/libraries likes AngularJS, Backbone, T3, jQuery, etc. on Front-end(if vanilla JS don’t cut it) and Express, Sails, etc in Backend - Huge markup(HTML/HTML5) fan and CSS(SASS/SCSS) lover - PHP/MySQL(with Drupal) were my go-to tools and CMS-oriented engineering and architecting was my primary job before one guy(Javascript) from the same stack evolved and dominated all of my curiosity, craft, and work. - My work overarches likes of e-commerce apps, education/enlightenment portal, promo/info sites, social network, event site, business intelligence reporting, admin panels, and more... *Next Goal is to architect/engineer a highly ambitious and impactful product - touching people's life in beautiful ways. Next Flipkart, Ola, Oyo or may be Netflix :)*
