Full Stack Software Engineer · Islamabad, PK

Building the systems that
get travel from booking
to boarding.

I'm Rizwan — a Laravel & Vue engineer who spends most days wiring airline, hotel, visa and payment APIs into products people actually check in with. Five years, four teams, one obsession: integrations that don't fail at the gate.

Who's on board

I'm a Full Stack Software Engineer based in Islamabad, currently leading web development at Jazz Mosafir, one of the region's larger travel and visa platforms. My day-to-day lives at the intersection of Laravel, Vue.js and third-party APIs — airline inventory, hotel beds, visa workflows, and the payment rails that tie them together.

Before Mosafir, I built an AI-powered water leakage detection platform at Revolve, shipped a bilingual freelance-management system and a full HRM suite at AKITS, and cut my teeth managing a 30-person internship program at Eziline while still writing Laravel myself.

What I care about: systems that stay calm under real traffic, integrations that degrade gracefully when a supplier API doesn't, and code a teammate can read at 2am during an incident.
