Hi, I'm Talal Akhtar
Junior full-stack developer focused on building scalable web applications and AI-powered automation solutions, combining clean backend architecture with practical, intelligent software.
Turning ideas into clean,
performant code.
Junior Full-Stack developer with hands-on experience building web applications and intelligent workflow automations using Python, the MERN stack, and n8n, alongside foundational academic exposure to C++. I focus on developing clean RESTful APIs, database modeling, and designing end-to-end automations—connecting web services, data pipelines, and LLMs using Python scripts and n8n to streamline backend operations.
I enjoy figuring out how systems fit together under the hood, writing maintainable code, and continuously expanding my technical toolkit to build practical software that ships.
