Most AI features look brilliant in a demo and fall apart the day real users arrive. I build the ones that make money instead. I'm Shakeeb, a product engineer and founder. I co-founded RapidLoad AI, an AI performance tool for WordPress, and grew it past 1,000 paying users. I built Plugin0, which turns a plain-English prompt into a working, production-ready WordPress plugin. I wrote Vue-Toasted, a plugin developers install 44,000 times a week. And I took an ecommerce store from zero to more than a million search impressions by rebuilding its SEO from the ground up. The pattern is the same every time: build it, ship it, grow it. On Upwork that adds up to $100K+ across 41 jobs, with two clients who kept me on past 4,000 hours each. One of them called me "a rockstar, one of a kind." Here's where I'm worth the rate: AI and LLM products that survive production. Chatbots that answer from your own data instead of inventing answers. RAG and GraphRAG pipelines, agents that call your tools, vector search that returns the right result. Built with Claude, OpenAI, LangChain, Pinecone, and the Vercel AI SDK. SaaS, end to end. React and Next.js on the front, Node behind it, Postgres underneath, running on AWS. I've grown a product from zero to thousands of users, so I'll tell you what to build first and what to leave for later. Fast sites that rank. Custom WordPress plugins, headless builds, Core Web Vitals work (LCP, CLS, INP), and the kind of SEO that took a store past a million impressions. RapidLoad came out of this obsession with speed. New stack or old, I build with what you've got. Not everything is a greenfield Next.js app. Plenty of my work is a Laravel application that needs to grow, or an older system that still quietly runs the business. I've gone as far back as legacy C# Windows software. If you've been burned by a developer who wanted to rewrite everything from scratch, I'm the opposite hire: I keep what works and fix what doesn't. What clients tell me they value: I run the whole project, so you brief me once instead of managing every task. I'll tell you when an idea isn't worth your money. And I leave behind code clean enough that the next developer thanks you, not curses you. Stack: React, Next.js, Vue, TypeScript, Node, Express, PHP/Laravel, Postgres, MongoDB, AWS, Docker, C#. Building something with AI, scaling a SaaS, or watching a slow site cost you customers? Send me what you're working on. I'll tell you how I'd build it and whether I'm the right person for the job.
