Usama Akhtar is a Full Stack Developer with 4+ years of experience building web and mobile applications across Laravel, PHP, React, Next.js, and React Native. He specializes in backend architecture, REST API design, and payment systems, and has delivered 20+ production applications for startups and businesses across healthcare, B2B e-commerce, industrial trading, and wellness industries.

His work spans multi-vendor platforms with live wallets and commission logic, real-time chat systems, and custom WordPress and Shopify builds for businesses that outgrew off-the-shelf tools. He has integrated payment gateways including Stripe and PayPal into transactional systems, and built RESTful APIs and third-party integrations for cross-functional teams working across mixed stacks. He currently leads backend development for a US-based healthcare platform, handling API architecture and system integrations under production deadlines.

Beyond web development, Usama has taken 4 mobile applications from development through publication on both Google Play and the Apple App Store, managing the full release pipeline including store verification, TestFlight distribution, and production rollout. His toolkit includes Laravel, PHP, MySQL, Livewire, Tailwind CSS, WordPress, Shopify, and Git, with a focus on building systems that hold up under real-world load rather than just working in a demo.
