What You Actually Get

3 live SaaS platforms. 1 enterprise system serving 200+ users. Production-grade AI, backend, and automation — shipped, not demoed.

Founders and product teams hire me to ship AI-powered SaaS products, production backend systems, and automation workflows — end-to-end, not in pieces.

I work across the full stack — Next.js on the frontend, Node.js and Laravel on the backend, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and MySQL for data. Every project I ship has real auth, real structure, and real deployment behind it. Not a prototype handed off with a README.

AI Integration & Automation

I integrate LLMs via LangChain and OpenAI to build features that actually work in production — resume analyzers, ticket routing systems, semantic search via Qdrant, and AI agents with real conversation memory. You can see two of them live at resumind.talhabilal.dev and tickmate.talhabilal.dev.

On the automation side, I build event-driven pipelines with n8n and Inngest that eliminate manual steps, run reliably in the background, and never block the main request flow.

Open Source & Infrastructure Work

I built create-node-spark, an open-source CLI that scaffolds production-ready Node.js backends in under 30 seconds — TypeScript-ready, multi-database, multi-framework, zero configuration required.

If you need AI features added to an existing product, a backend built to handle real scale, or manual workflows automated — I bring the architecture thinking and the execution discipline to ship it properly.

    End-to-end SaaS products with auth, payments, roles, and dashboards — shipped to production as complete systems.

  • Database Architecture

    Schema design, indexing, and query optimization across PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and MySQL — built for the scale you need next.

  • Workflow Automation

    Automation pipelines with n8n and Inngest that eliminate manual bottlenecks and run reliably in the background.

  • DevOps & Deployment

    CI/CD pipelines, Docker containerization, and cloud deployment — so your product ships fast and stays up.

Common questions about my services & workflow.

Everything you need to know about how I build scalable backend systems, AI applications, and robust full-stack solutions.

TickMate is an AI-powered support ticket management platform that transforms how teams handle support requests. It automatically analyzes incoming tickets using AI to generate summaries, suggest priority levels, identify required skills, and find related resolved tickets through vector similarity search. This eliminates manual triage bottlenecks and helps agents resolve tickets faster with contextual information.

TickMate is built with a modern full-stack architecture: Next.js frontend with TypeScript, Express backend API, PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM, OpenAI for AI analysis, LangChain for structured outputs, Qdrant for vector similarity search, and Inngest for reliable background jobs. The system uses HttpOnly JWT cookies for security and includes comprehensive audit logging.

When a ticket is created, TickMate automatically sends it to OpenAI's GPT-4.1-mini model via LangChain. The AI generates a structured output including a concise summary, suggested priority level, required skills for resolution, and helpful notes for the assignee. This analysis happens asynchronously through Inngest, so the API remains fast regardless of AI processing time.

Three core service paths: AI-powered SaaS MVP development, workflow automation systems, and backend API architecture. If you need a product built end-to-end, an AI feature added to an existing system, or manual processes automated — those are the three things I ship. You can see the full service breakdown at talhabilal.dev/services.

On the frontend and full-stack side: Next.js and TypeScript. Backend: Node.js, Express, and Laravel. Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and MySQL. For AI: OpenAI, LangChain, and Qdrant for vector search. For automation: n8n and Inngest. Every technology listed here has a shipped, live project behind it.

Yes, I integrate advanced artificial intelligence into web applications to enhance functionality. Whether it's creating AI-driven ticket analysis systems like TickMate, intelligent document processors, or automating complex workflows with LLMs, I have the expertise to make it happen.

I am a full-stack developer adept at building both robust backend systems and modern frontend interfaces. While my focus is often on backend architecture and AI integration, I provide comprehensive solutions that ensure a seamless user experience from end to end, as demonstrated in TickMate's complete platform.

Absolutely. I have extensive experience with vector databases like Qdrant for semantic search applications. In TickMate, I implemented vector similarity search to find related resolved tickets, helping agents leverage institutional knowledge. I work with OpenAI embeddings and can build sophisticated search and recommendation systems.

I am available for both freelance projects and long-term remote collaborations. I thrive in distributed setups and have a proven track record of delivering high-quality web solutions independently or as part of a distributed team.
