01 / The signal
AI can build a website in five minutes. That is exactly the problem.
A generator makes a website, not your website. It looks finished on the surface and carries debt underneath that costs more to unwind than building it properly would have.
I use AI the way I use any power tool: research, repetitive work, catching issues early. Every architectural decision still comes from human judgment, because that is the part a shortcut cannot fake.
I want to be the developer teams call before their website becomes a liability, not after.

02 / Method
I study your business model, users, competitors and constraints before touching code. Clarity reduces rework, and rework is where budgets die.
Clear sprints, defined scope, measurable progress, fast feedback. You always know what shipped this week and what ships next.
Readable, maintainable, well tested code that a future developer, including me a year from now, can actually work with.
Bottlenecks removed across the whole stack, from database queries to bundle size to rendering. Measurable Core Web Vitals gains.
Structured data, semantic HTML, technical SEO and GEO. Visibility is engineering, not luck.
Multi-layer authentication, rate limiting, server hardening. Added at the start, where it is cheap, instead of after an incident.
Not a compliance checkbox. It widens your audience and reflects what you think of the people using your product.
03 / Selected work
2023 — present · Shine Software · Laravel, Vue 3, GSAP
Launched in beta in 2023, now a global tango community platform where dancers find milongas, buy tickets and meet their city’s scene. I built the backend API behind the website and mobile app, the public website, and a modern, powerful dashboard to run it all. I also led SEO and performance, so pages load fast and get found in search.
2022 — 2023 · Shine Software · Vue, Nuxt
A large booking platform with slow first loads. I profiled it in DevTools, deferred non-critical images and components behind Intersection Observer, split the bundle, loaded JavaScript only when a feature was touched, and added low-quality image placeholders so something useful paints immediately. Auth and server config were hardened, and schema.org markup made listings legible to search engines.
Result: page load times dropped 25%.
2026 · Tauri · Windows, macOS, Linux
A free health companion for people who work at a screen all day. Eyes every twenty minutes, posture every thirty, movement every forty-five, water every hour. Every default comes from published research, and where the evidence is thin the app says so. Nothing leaves the machine: no account, no cloud, no telemetry.
Result: the Windows installer is 2.1 MB and the macOS one 2.7 MB.
2019 · Freelance · Bootstrap 4 · No longer online
A landing page for an Italian architecture, design and planning firm. A dark, restrained look that lets the buildings carry the page, with a responsive layout built on Bootstrap.
2019 · Node.js · npm
A command-line tool that sets up a new website project in seconds. It asks a few questions, then creates the folders, the starter files and an index.html with the CSS framework, icon libraries and jQuery version you picked, each with a security check that blocks tampered CDN files.
Result: still downloaded from npm 155 times in 2026, seven years after its first release.

04 / Testimonials
In a span of a few weeks, Masih was able to lead the development of a web application from scratch and solve all MVP use cases.
“Masih was an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable on Front-End development but he had extensive knowledge on accessibility as well. He was very hands-on with the design process and was open to collaboration and feedback along the entire way. Whenever we ran into bugs he was always committed to learning how to get through them. He’s a valuable and reliable team member that would be an asset to any project.”“I recommend Masih if you need to get the job done! He’s very eager to help anywhere he can.”“Masih did a great job creating examples of VueJS features and answering questions from other Chingus as part of our ongoing series of Roundtable discussions on popular Javascript frameworks. His depth of knowledge and skill at presenting complex subject matter in a simple & straightforward way was invaluable!”“Having Masih on our team as a front-end developer was a pleasure. Masih is a very knowledgeable person and he was able to assist and guide our team to be able to complete our team project on time.”“Masih provided quick and thorough server management, improving my site’s security, and providing options for further site development.”“Occasionally you come across that really standout student that goes above and beyond on each project they complete […] always pushing the boundaries of their knowledge, adding enhancements to each project that went beyond the scope of the curriculum, and also so dedicated to helping his peers that he created a front end scaffold to help them get started with their projects.”Client feedback and public recommendations onLinkedIn.

10 / How I work
Ways to work together
A new website or web app, built end to end, with an agreed scope and timeline before any code is written.
A performance, SEO and security review of the site you already have, with a prioritised list of fixes. I can implement them too, or hand them to your team.
Regular hours for improvements, updates and monitoring, so the site keeps getting better after launch instead of slowly rotting.
What happens after you write
A few lines about your business, your site and what isn't working. That's enough to start.
A short call to understand your goals, your users and your constraints. No commitment.
A written proposal with scope, timeline and price, so you know exactly what you're getting before we begin.
Weekly progress you can click through, then launch, documentation and a handover your team can work with.
These companies back my work: Fashion Mery with financial support, and BitNinja, JetBrains and Bitdefender with their own products and services.
