sanjarcode - Overview

👋 Welcome to the profile of your friendly neighborhood hitch-hiker!

Hi, I’m Sanjar Afaq, a Full-Stack Software Engineer who enjoys building things end-to-end — from backend logic to mobile UIs to the glue that ships it to production.

I care about execution, developer velocity, and measurable outcomes. If something is slow, noisy, or fragile, I usually end up fixing it.

💻 Expertise

With ~4 years of experience, my work spans:

  • Frontend Development Building responsive, production UIs with React, TypeScript, Next.js, and React Native.

  • Mobile Development Shipping real apps using React Native and Expo, including App Store and Play Store flows.

  • Backend Development Designing and building APIs and systems using Ruby on Rails, Node.js, GraphQL, Kafka, and Redis.

  • Developer Experience & Tooling Improving build times, automating releases, and reducing friction for teams.

🏆 Extracurriculars & Interests

When I’m not shipping code, I like to:

Travel: Exploring new places and collecting experiences along the way. Video Games: Enjoy diving into worlds with challenging gameplay and rich stories. Movies & Pop Culture: Keeping up with the latest, whether it’s an indie film or the newest blockbuster.

🌱 Ongoing Goals

  • Build fewer things — but make each one structurally better
  • Push toward category-level solutions, not one-off hacks
  • Use AI as leverage for decision reduction, not novelty
  • Keep improving at full-stack ownership and product thinking
