Yusuf Hakim
Software Engineer
Backend-leaning full-stack engineer who ships products that actually run in production. I designed, built, and deployed Orbit solo from a blank repo to a live SaaS with OAuth SSO, Stripe billing, AI-powered search, and a D3 relationship graph. I came up through business and data analysis before going deep on engineering, so I scope problems against real outcomes and build the system that solves them.
A background in offensive security (OWASP Top 10, Burp Suite, network testing) means I build with the attacker view in mind. I integrate AI and LLMs where they earn their place, and I write about backend, databases, and infrastructure on Medium. If you want an engineer who can take something from blank repo to live, secured, and paying, let's talk.

A professional relationship manager and network OS. Built solo from zero: OAuth SSO, Stripe subscription billing with usage enforcement, a D3.js relationship graph, Gemini-powered semantic search across contacts, AI voice-to-contact extraction, CSV import, bilingual Arabic/English UI, and full Supabase row-level security. Deployed on Vercel with production-grade webhooks and analytics.
