Engineering Scalable Full-Stack Systems

Rashid C — Full Stack Engineer in Dubai, building ERP, SaaS and e-commerce systems with Next.js, Node.js, Django and PostgreSQL.

Rashid C, Full Stack Engineer in Dubai, UAE

I build the software a business runs on every day.

I'm Rashid C, a full-stack engineer in Dubai, UAE. Over 4 years I've taken products from database schema to deployed release: Next.js and React on the front end, Django, NestJS and Node.js on the back end, PostgreSQL underneath.

Right now I'm the only engineer on NezeX One, a multi-tenant cloud ERP that a UAE business uses daily for sales, purchasing, inventory and VAT invoicing. I care most about the unglamorous parts — permissions, audit trails, safe migrations and fast queries — because they keep the numbers right.

Full Stack Engineer

AZC Electronics Trading LLC - Dubai, UAE · On-site

Jan 2026 - Present

Sole engineer of NezeX One (nezexone.com), a multi-tenant cloud ERP live in production in the UAE and used daily by its client - 11 Django apps with per-tenant data isolation and multiple branches per business, on Django REST Framework, PostgreSQL and Next.js/TypeScript.
Implemented UAE VAT tax invoices with TRN, locked issued invoices corrected through credit notes, and custom payment terms with due-date calculation.
Designed role-based access control with 29 granular permissions and 8 customisable default roles, enforced centrally on every API request.
Wrote 527 automated backend tests in a GitHub Actions CI pipeline, ran 127 schema and data migrations on the live PostgreSQL database, and built a deployment script that backs up the database, uploads Docker images and restarts services on AWS EC2 and S3.
Built Al Fath for an Abu Dhabi accounting and tax firm - a bilingual (English/Arabic) public website plus a staff practice-management system: NestJS REST API on PostgreSQL/Prisma with per-module permissions, optimistic locking, a transactional field-level audit log, login rate limiting, least-privilege database roles and 250+ Vitest tests.

Back End Developer (Contract)

Polosys Technologies LLP - Malappuram, India · Remote

Jun 2026 - Aug 2026

Built and maintained REST APIs across Sales Invoice, Sales Order, Delivery Challan, Estimates, Purchase, Inventory, and Customer modules in an organisation-scoped multi-tenant SaaS ERP serving the GCC and Saudi Arabia market.
Cut VendorCredit transaction processing ~99% (110s → 800ms) on AWS Lambda and RDS by rebuilding the service layer with bulk database operations and a custom incremental FIFO engine (FIFOEngineV2), unblocking real-time invoice workflows.
Reduced PurchaseInvoice processing from up to 60 seconds to 1-2 seconds using the same V2 architecture, removing a daily bottleneck in accounting operations.
Fixed 14 interconnected bugs across 5 files in the Delivery Challan module - inventory reversal, status-machine handling, and DC-to-invoice conversion edge cases including voided and bulk-deleted invoices.
Added multi-unit quantity conversion (carton to piece) across Delivery Challan, Sales Order, and Sales Invoice, letting items be sold in one unit while inventory tracks in another without breaking downstream documents.
Resolved production crashes in Sales By Item and Sales By Customer reports caused by soft-deleted records, replacing unsafe .get() calls with .filter().first() fallbacks.
Corrected Statement, Receipt Voucher, and Payment PDF templates from US Letter to A4 to meet GCC document standards.
Authored the platform's technical documentation site in Docusaurus - 13 business modules, API reference, backend architecture, and a frontend developer onboarding guide.
Audited 579 files across 27 Django apps, documented 21 architectural issues, and closed out hardcoded secrets and weak key configurations before they became incidents.
