Sr. iOS Engineer | Glancer | Ex-Quikr
Worked with Aatif for 5 years at HealthDekho & he's genuinely one of the best full-stack developers I've had the chance to collaborate with. Super solid technically, whether it's frontend or backend, he just gets things done. But honestly, what I'll remember most is how easy and fun it was to work with him. Always positive, always helpful, and the kind of person who makes the team better just by being there. Great developer, even better human. Any team would be lucky to have him.
Director at AirFi
I have had the opportunity to work with Aatif for a few years and he has been one of the most dependable and technically strong engineers on the team. His depth in JavaScript, Node.js, TypeScript, React and cloud architecture is outstanding. He approaches the most complex problems with clarity and calmness. Aatif is an amazing team member, always ready to help others, share knowledge and support the team without hesitation. He is exceptionally likeable, easy to work with and brings a composed presence that makes a huge difference during high pressure situations. I strongly recommend Aatif for any senior engineering or architectural role. His combination of technical strength, ownership and supportive leadership makes him a valuable asset to any organisation.
Staff Engineer at AirFi
Aatif is one of the calmest minds I've worked with. His approach to solving even the toughest problems has always impressed me. He has literally been available day or night to provide support and guide the team when needed. His expertise in modern tech stacks such as NodeJS, NextJS, MongoDB, TypeScript, and the broader JavaScript ecosystem is excellent, and he can always be relied on for clear and accurate technical clarification. He is highly committed to his deliverables and is extremely dependable. In all our time working together, I've never seen a project under his ownership face unnecessary escalations. I would strongly recommend him to lead and contribute to any project involving modern technology and scalable solutions.
