Hi, I'm Abdur Rauf
Full Stack Developer

Technical Operations Team Lead at AESYRIX

I build web applications, real estate lead systems and CRM automation with Laravel, React and WordPress — and I stay involved after launch, because shipping code is only half of what a business actually needs.

About me

A developer who learned the business side first

I started my working life as an office boy. In the evenings, after everyone had gone home, I taught myself HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP on the office computers. That habit turned into a junior developer role, then a developer role, and eventually into leading technical operations for a team.

Along the way I spent time as an ISA and real estate call agent on United States campaigns — qualifying leads, working CRMs, VoIP and SMS systems. That is an unusual background for a developer, and it is why I understand what a lead is worth before I design the form that captures it.

Key strengths

  • Clean, maintainable, well-commented code
  • Team player — I lead and interview developers
  • Written scope and fixed quote before any code
  • Ownership after launch, not just at handover
  • Business questions before feature lists

What I do best

Five things I'm genuinely good at

The areas where I do my strongest work — and where clients get the most out of hiring me.

Frontend

React and Angular interfaces, responsive layouts and dashboards people use every working day. HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, TypeScript, Tailwind, Bootstrap.

Backend

Laravel and PHP applications, REST APIs, authentication, admin panels and relational database design that stays fast as data grows.

WordPress

Custom themes and plugins, WooCommerce stores, migrations, speed and security work — and rescuing sites another developer left behind.

Technical operations

IT support, hosting, DNS and SSL, deployment, delivery workflows, hiring and technical interviews. My current day job, not a side interest.

SEO & performance

Technical audits, schema markup, Core Web Vitals, indexing fixes and page-speed work — the reason a good-looking site actually gets found.

Portfolio

Featured projects

Live client work and personal builds. Every link opens the real thing — nothing here is a mockup.

Career journey

Your starting point does not define your destination

Eight steps from office boy to Technical Operations Team Lead — each one earned by learning something the previous role did not require.

  1. Step 01

    Office Boy

    Office support · 2023

    Kept the office running while watching the developers work. Stayed after hours and started learning how websites are actually built.

  2. Step 02

    Self-taught developer

    Evenings & weekends

    HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP on borrowed time and free tutorials. No bootcamp, no CS degree — just consistency.

  3. Step 03

    Junior Web Developer

    SoftoSol · 2023–2024

    First role writing code for money. Bug fixes, small features, and learning to work inside someone else's codebase.

  4. Step 04

    Web Developer

    SoftoSol / AESYRIX · 2024

    Angular SPAs, Laravel and PHP back ends, MySQL schemas, REST APIs and WordPress builds, plus performance and SEO work.

  5. Step 05

    ISA / Real Estate Call Agent

    US real estate campaigns

    Outbound calling, lead qualification, CRM updates and SMS follow-up. Taught me what a business does with the data my software collects.

  6. Step 06

    Technical Operations

    AESYRIX

    IT support, WordPress projects, troubleshooting, hosting and deployment, and the workflows that keep client work moving.

  7. Step 07

    Technical Operations Team Lead

    AESYRIX · current

    Team coordination, technical workflow management, hiring and interviews, and process improvement — while still writing code.

  8. Step 08

    International freelancer

    Direct clients · remote

    Selected freelance projects alongside the day job: real estate platforms, CRM automation and custom web applications.

Services

Services I offer

Six core services, each with a dedicated page covering scope, process and what you get.

Domain experience

Real estate: I've worked both sides of the lead

I've made the calls and built the systems. Most developers have only done one.

On the operations side

  • Property listing management & MLS workflows
  • Writing and formatting property descriptions
  • Buyer, seller and investor lead workflows
  • Lead qualification, cold calling, follow-ups
  • CRM management across VoIP and SMS systems
  • Property marketing and social media support

On the build side

  • Real estate marketplaces and listing websites
  • Search and filter experiences for inventory
  • Off-market and investor opportunity flows
  • Lead capture wired into GoHighLevel and other CRMs
  • Routing, reminders and follow-up automation
  • Tenant and property management dashboards

Six of my projects are real estate builds — Domestic Real Estate, OmniReferral, iProply, TenantFlow, Open Referral and Axis Referral.

Current role

Technical operations at AESYRIX

Development is one input. Operations is what makes the output survive contact with a business.

Systems & support

IT support, system troubleshooting, hosting and deployment, and keeping live client sites and internal tools healthy.

Delivery & workflow

Technical workflow management across web and WordPress projects, so work moves predictably from brief to launch.

Team & hiring

Team coordination, conducting technical interviews, onboarding new members and setting the standards they work to.

Process improvement

Finding the repeated manual step and removing it — business operations work that shows up as saved hours, not new features.

Case studies

The reasoning behind the builds

Longer write-ups covering the business problem, my approach, what was built and the stack behind it.

Domestic Real Estate case study

Three audiences on one site, inventory that stays findable, and lead capture connected to follow-up rather than an inbox.

Why splitting the intake into four steps produces better leads than shortening the form.

iProply case study

Core PHP · Property search

iProply

Search in the hero, two clear paths out, and the honest trade-offs of building without a framework.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What services do you offer?

Custom web applications in Laravel, PHP, React and Angular; WordPress and WooCommerce builds; REST API development and integration; admin dashboards; real estate websites and lead systems; GoHighLevel and CRM automation; technical SEO and performance work; and ongoing website maintenance.

How do you work with clients?

A short discovery call, then a written scope with milestones and a fixed quote before any code is written.

Development runs with regular plain-English updates, followed by a review round against the agreed scope, deployment with hosting, DNS and SSL configured, and a support window after launch.

What is your availability?

I work as Technical Operations Team Lead at AESYRIX and take selected freelance projects alongside it. I'm open to contract work, monthly retainers and full-time remote roles. I work from Pakistan Standard Time with regular overlap into US and UK business hours.

How can we start a project?

Send the details through the contact form, by email to rauforakzai10@gmail.com, or on WhatsApp at +92 370 1913453. Describe the problem rather than the feature list and my first reply will be more useful.

Do you work with clients outside Pakistan?

Yes. I work remotely with international clients, including United States real estate businesses. Communication is in English by email, WhatsApp or scheduled calls.

Do you take over projects another developer started?

Yes, and it's a large part of what I do. I'll audit the existing codebase or site first and tell you honestly whether it's cheaper to repair or rebuild, before either of us commits to anything.

Who owns the code and accounts when we're done?

You do. Repositories, hosting, domains and third-party accounts are set up in your name or transferred to you at handover. I don't hold client work hostage.
