I’m Anas Ali — full-stack engineer for AI-first products
3+ years building Next.js & NestJS products with AI baked in. I work with founders and small teams who need a single engineer they can trust with the load-bearing pieces — APIs, AI integration, SaaS foundations, and the cloud they run on.

I’m a Full Stack Engineer specializing in scalable web applications and AI-powered systems. The last three years I’ve been building production-grade products in Next.js, NestJS, and TypeScript — and integrating LLMs (OpenAI, Gemini, Vertex AI) into the workflows that real businesses actually run on.
My favorite engagements are with founders who care about craft — people building things that need to be fast, observable, and honest — not just functional. Recent work has cut delivery time by 60% on a France-based AdTech platform and removed 75% of manual content work across automated video pipelines.
I’m based in Chiniot, Pakistan, finishing my BSc Software Engineering at FAST National University in June 2026, and working with teams across Europe, North America, and the Middle East. I take on a small number of engagements at a time so I can stay close to the work.
How I think about the work
Boring infrastructure, bold products
I default to NestJS, Next.js, and well-understood data stores for the load-bearing parts — so we can take real risk where it actually matters: the product and the AI.
Honesty is faster
If an idea won't work, you'll hear about it on day one. If a deadline is at risk, you'll hear about it before it slips.
Show, then tell
I'd rather ship a working prototype than draft a 30-page spec. Most decisions get easier with a thing to point at.
Own the whole stack
From schema design to onboarding flow. The leverage is usually in the seams between layers — so I own them.
