Hi, I'mFaizan Ashiq
I turn messy data into systems that just work: fast, reliable, and boring in the best way possible.
If your app slows down at scale, that's usually a me-problem to solve.

Backend engineering principles
Stable API boundaries
I keep transport, validation, serialization, and persistence concerns separate so APIs remain predictable as features and teams grow.
Performance starts at the data layer
I focus on query shape, migrations, indexes, transactions, and ORM boundaries early because most backend problems eventually become data problems.
Systems must be operable
I build with deployment, logs, storage, CI/CD, secrets, rollback paths, and resource access in mind, not just local correctness.
