Project details
Running an outdated Laravel app is a ticking clock — security vulnerabilities, incompatible packages, and technical debt that compounds every month you delay.
I've performed 10+ major Laravel version upgrades on production SaaS platforms, including complex multi-tenant systems with custom packages and third-party integrations. I know exactly where upgrades break and how to handle each one safely.
✅ Every audit covers:
• Breaking change analysis (per Laravel version)
• Package compatibility review (all composer.json dependencies)
• Deprecated code identification
• Security vulnerability flags
• Estimated effort and risk rating per task
The Audit + Execution tier includes zero-downtime deployment strategy and full test suite verification before handoff. No surprises.

About Muhammad Afaq

Job Success
Lahore, Pakistan - 9:47 pm local time
I'm a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 6+ years delivering production-grade web applications across HealthTech, FinTech, SaaS, and IoT. My work sits at the intersection of solid backend architecture and clean, functional frontends — Laravel APIs, payment integrations, async processing pipelines, and React/Angular interfaces that actually perform under real load.
Here's what I've shipped for clients:
→ Rebuilt a patient portal (Angular) for a healthcare platform with 90,000+ active users — while keeping $10M+/month in recurring payments running without a single hour of downtime.
→ Cut database response times from ~2 minutes to under 30ms on a live production system through query restructuring, indexing, and DB view optimization.
→ Discovered and fully neutralized a supply-chain backdoor embedded in a third-party package — base64-encoded payloads exposing terminal access and database controls — contained within 30 hours.
→ Led a zero-downtime Laravel 5.8 → Laravel 10 upgrade on a B2B music platform processing ~5,000 file uploads/day, with files up to 10GB.
→ Engineered multi-gateway payment infrastructure supporting Stripe, USAePay (Card + ACH), and Payroc — fully wired into patient billing dashboards and automated invoicing.
What I'm best at:
• Full platform builds from scratch — multi-role SaaS portals, patient/broker systems, CRMs, ERPs
• Legacy system fixes and upgrades — performance issues, framework migrations, technical debt cleanup
• Payment integrations — Stripe, PayPal, USAePay, Payroc, N-Genius
• Long-term engineering partnerships where I become your dedicated backend lead
I work best with clients who have a real problem to solve and want an engineer who takes ownership — not someone who waits to be told what to do next.
Tech: Laravel, PHP, CodeIgniter, React.js, Angular, Vue.js, MySQL, PostgreSQL, AWS (EC2, S3, SQS, Lambda), Redis, Docker, Go, Node.js, Python, GraphQL, WebSockets, Twilio, Zoom SDK.
