Hi, I am
Mohd Touseef Jamal
Full-stack Engineer
& Mobile Developer
I started my career as a freelancer, building complex ERP Systems that saved businesses over 1000$/month in operational costs.
Over 5+ years, I've built ERP Systems, LMS platforms, e-commerce solutions, and mobile apps.
Beyond writing codes, I take product ownership, contribute in business growth, do product management, act as a client-facing engineer and lead technical decisions!
Most recently, I helped scale InterviewReady — an EdTech platform — contributing across engineering, content strategy, marketing, product management, and UX/UI.
Currently, building at The Product Highway.
What you can hire me for.
Whether you need a product built from scratch or an existing one improved, here's where I add real value.
Website Design & Development
Full-stack web products, from wireframe to deployed.
Mobile App Development
iOS & Android apps built with React Native — one codebase, store-ready.
UX/UI Design & Improvement
Audits, redesigns, and new interfaces users actually enjoy.
Project Management
End-to-end ownership: timelines, sprints, stakeholder updates.
Team Leadership
Building and leading dev/design teams that execute with clarity.
Technical Consulting
Architecture review, tech stack decisions, or just a second opinion.
What I bring to the table.
Four reasons clients keep me on retainer instead of cycling through contractors.
I lead, not just execute.
Most engineers wait for a brief. I build the brief with you. I've led 5-person dev/design teams through architecture decisions, sprint plans, and uncomfortable trade-offs — so the work doesn't stall when the next blocker appears.
I speak both languages.
I can talk shop with your CTO and translate the same conversation into business terms for your investors in the next call. No more 'engineer-said-something-and-I-don't-know-what'. You'll always understand what's being built and why.
I care about the experience.
Code that ships ugly is debt. I bring a UX mindset to every build — auditing flows, fixing friction, and pushing back on decisions that look fine in Figma but hurt real users. Polish isn't a phase — it's a habit.
I own the outcome.
Hourly contractors give you hours. I give you outcomes. That means I sweat the launch, the post-launch bug, the metrics dashboard you forgot to ask for — and I'm the one client comms route through, not someone hiding behind a project manager.
How I charge.
Transparent, flexible, and tied to outcomes — not just hours.
Fixed-scope project
Defined deliverables with clear scope.
- Scoping call
- Written proposal
- Milestone-based payments
Monthly retainer
Ongoing product work, team augmentation.
- Agreed hours per week
- Weekly check-ins
- Rolling contract
Consulting / hourly
One-off audits, advice, second opinions.
- Book a call
- Pay per hour or session
- Async follow-up included
All engagements start with a free 30-min discovery call — no commitment, no pitch deck.

Video Transcoding Service using node.js
We will be learning how to convert video into different resolutions and break them into chunks and support adaptive streaming. A video transcoding service primarily converts video files from one format or encoding to another. It includes changing codecs, adjusting bitrate, changing resolutions, or modifying frame rates and so on.

Hosting node.js backend on a custom server using Nginx
Few days ago, I have to host a node.js backend written in TypeScript on a custom server of my client (no aws & no other hosting provider). I have to setup everything from by myself and it took me almost 2 days to host it properly. I have read many blogs and watched many YouTube videos about nginx, http caching, load balancing, api gateway, reverse proxies, ssl certificate, ssh, port forwarding, url redirection, etc but never have I ever implemented these concepts in a real project.
Let's build
something
together.
Open to project-based work, retainers, and consulting. Let's start with a conversation.
