Boxing

The ring taught me what production teaches: stay calm when you get hit, keep your guard up, and outlast the problem.

Always reading

Philosophy

I read philosophy to think more clearly. It's why I ask "why are we building this?" before "how".

08 — FAQ

Questions people ask me

Straight answers to what clients usually want to know before we start.

Who is Rafay Khan?

Rafay Khan (also known as Rafay Yousafzai) is a full-stack product engineer based in Lahore, Pakistan. He builds web platforms, iOS and Android apps, and AI automations, and is currently a Full-Stack Engineer at Callture. He has 4+ years of experience and 50+ delivered projects for clients in Australia, the United States and Pakistan.

What does Rafay Khan build?

Full-stack web applications (Next.js, React, Node.js), cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android (React Native, Expo), AI agents, chatbots and voice agents, CRM and business automations (n8n, HubSpot, GoHighLevel, Odoo), and the cloud infrastructure to run them.

Can Rafay build both the website and the mobile app?

Yes. Most of his projects ship as one system: a web app or admin portal, iOS and Android apps from a single React Native codebase, and a shared backend. For Direct Transport Solutions he built the admin portal, customer portal and driver app as the sole engineer.

Is Rafay Khan available for freelance or contract work?

Yes — he takes on select contract and freelance projects alongside his role at Callture. The fastest way to start is a WhatsApp message or email with a short description of what you want to build.

Does Rafay work with clients outside Pakistan?

Yes. He works remotely with clients worldwide and has shipped production software for companies in Australia, the United States and Pakistan. He is on UTC+5 and usually replies within a few hours.

What tech stack does Rafay Khan use?

TypeScript, Next.js, React, React Native and Expo on the front end; Node.js, Fastify, Express and Python on the back end; PostgreSQL, Supabase, MongoDB and Firebase for data; OpenAI, Claude, LangChain and n8n for AI and automation; and Docker, AWS, GCP and Vercel for infrastructure.

Can Rafay take over or fix an existing codebase?

Yes. A large part of his freelance work has been taking over existing projects — fixing complex bugs, improving performance and SEO, and finishing MVPs that stalled.

How do I hire Rafay Khan?

Message him on WhatsApp (+92 328 9462807), email rafaykhan.mesh@gmail.com, or reach him through Upwork, Fiverr or LinkedIn. Share what you're building and he'll reply with questions and next steps.
