Work Experience

THEKEY

Senior Full Stack Engineer

Jul 2026 — Present

  • Operate as the full-stack owner across the platform — designing PostgreSQL schemas, building backend services and self-scoped APIs, and implementing the corresponding React/Next.js UI with TanStack Query end-to-end for every feature shipped.
  • Architected and shipped a self-scoped learning-analytics dashboard giving 15,000+ active students real-time visibility into their academic progress — new database queries and a self-scoped API behind four visualizations (skill-level mastery, difficulty, question-bank coverage, per-chapter progress) previously available only to instructors.
  • Engineered a dynamic ranking engine that processes multi-variable metrics — browsing activity, academic grades, and practiced problem volume — to generate real-time, gamified leaderboards.
  • Built an efficient, real-time online/offline presence system that tracks peer studying status and drives daily platform engagement without degrading backend database performance.
  • Rebuilt the student-facing product from the ground up — home dashboard, six-step onboarding with phone verification and single sign-on, profile editor, and course catalogue — shipped bilingual (Arabic/English) with full right-to-left support.
  • Ship production features using AI coding agents as the primary development workflow, directing automated codebase investigation, code review, and root-cause analysis to deliver 56 completed tickets across the platform.

About Me

Hi, I'm Jayed Akhtar, a Senior Full Stack Engineer specializing in AI-powered SaaS applications and scalable backend systems. With 4 years of experience, I've independently architected and shipped production-grade platforms across EdTech, Healthcare, and B2B industries.

I thrive at the intersection of clean system design and intelligent automation — building applications that are robust, fast, and genuinely useful. My work spans TypeScript full-stack development, LLM integration pipelines, real-time systems, and multi-tenant SaaS architecture.

I hold a B.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering from Graphic Era University, Dehradun.
