about

I take products from an empty repository to production — as the only engineer in the room.

Anurag Poonia

I'm Anurag, a full-stack software engineer from IIT Madras. Since 2024 I've been building and shipping production SaaS for international clients across Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, and React — usually as the sole engineer, owning system design, REST APIs, database schema, testing, and CI/CD deployment end to end.

That means I don't hand off the hard parts. Scalable architecture, security hardening, and reliable zero-to-one delivery are the whole job, not an afterthought — and I've earned a Top Rated badge on Upwork with $7,000+ across 4+ international clients in my first six months doing exactly that.

I'm currently finishing a B.Sc. in Data Science & Programming at IIT Madras (CGPA 8.5/10), and I keep EST hours for US clients.

how i work

Own the whole lifecycle

System design, APIs, schema, tests, and deploy — one person accountable for all of it, so nothing falls between the seams.

Production, not demos

I build for reliability and security from day one. Zero-to-one delivery that survives real traffic, not a polished prototype.

Scalable by default

Normalized data, clean boundaries, and pipelines that keep working as scope grows — the boring decisions that pay off later.

Async & remote-ready

Clear written updates, EST overlap for US teams, and a Top Rated track record of shipping without hand-holding.
