Building the web, one fast app at a time

I'm Eissa — a full stack developer with over 6 years of experience turning ideas into production-ready web applications. I work with startups, agencies, and established companies to build things people actually enjoy using.

My story

I started freelancing in 2018, building websites for small businesses while learning the craft. What began as simple landing pages quickly evolved — I fell in love with the architecture side of the web: how systems fit together, how data flows, how milliseconds of latency affect whether someone stays or leaves.

After three years at Vijua building client-facing applications with React, I moved to Upwork to work directly with international clients across e-commerce, SaaS, and real estate. That exposure — working across different industries, codebases, and team cultures — shaped how I think about software.

Today I specialise in full-stack work with React, Next.js, Node.js, and TypeScript. I care deeply about performance, clean architecture, and writing code that's easy for the next developer to understand.

How I work

Performance first

Every millisecond matters. I optimise for Core Web Vitals from the first commit — not as an afterthought.

Clean architecture

Code you can hand to another developer in 6 months and have them understand immediately. No clever tricks.

Honest communication

I flag problems early, give realistic timelines, and never overpromise. Surprises are bad for everyone.

Outcome focused

You're not hiring me for lines of code — you're hiring me for business results. I keep the end goal in mind.
