About Souhail
I build the kind of software that quietly makes companies look good.
Seven years in, I have shipped large-scale SaaS platforms for enterprise clients, migrated legacy monoliths to clean microservices, and taken AI from a buzzword to a production RAG chatbot serving real users and saving 120 support hours a month.
My stack is deep: Next.js, React, Node.js, TypeScript, Laravel, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, AWS. But what clients actually hire me for is judgment. Knowing when to add complexity and when to delete it. Writing code that the next engineer will not curse at. Spotting the performance issue that has been hiding in plain sight.
I work remotely from Tunisia, speak English at native level, and operate like a senior engineer on your team — not a vendor who disappears after delivery.
If you need someone who can own a problem end to end and bring it home, let's talk.
