I build software that turns ideas into real results.
I'm a software engineer and the co-founder & CTO of Axtra Studios, my own software agency. For the past five years I've partnered with business owners around the world to build software that drives real growth.
Whether it's a custom SaaS platform or an AI-powered tool, I move fast, stay flexible, and focus only on what works. I'm an optimist by nature, so I treat every project as a chance to build something better.
Based in Lahore, working with clients all over the world. Bring me your idea and I'll turn it into results.

In their
words
He went far above and beyond, and took ownership of the project as if it were his own.
It's rare to find a developer who delivers high-quality work, communicates clearly, and genuinely cares about the end result. He did all three. He has earned our trust, and he will always be our first choice for development.
I've worked with many freelancers, but Shahzaib at Axtra Studios stands out. He helped bring one of our most unique mental performance projects to life, and nailed both the design and functionality. He genuinely cares about the vision behind the work, and that makes all the difference.
Working with Shakeel on our finance calculator was a game-changer for our roofing business. He understood our needs right away and delivered a tool that's fast and tailored for our team. He delivered beyond our expectations.
Excellent communication, truly cares about my project and used all his knowledge to bring my vision to life. I will hire again for my next project.
Shahzaib did an outstanding job bringing our vision for the Autotact website to life. He was highly skilled and efficient, and incredibly adaptable, handling last-minute changes with ease and professionalism. Highly recommended.
Shahzaib was wonderful to work with. He helped achieve a web project on a very tight timeline and was very quick to understand what we wanted, and brought it about with much precision and competence. Will be more than happy to use him again.
This developer did all the necessary work required for my page, which I use for multiple users to scale my business. Good work all over.
The path
No shortcuts.
I never took a salaried job. I taught myself to build, and started selling that skill one project at a time.
Earned, not claimed.
Five years on, most of my clients still hire me on Upwork, where I'm Top Rated Plus with a 100% job success score and over $100K earned.
From sites to systems.
The work grew with me, from small websites to full SaaS platforms and AI tools, for founders across the UAE, Malaysia, Europe and the US.
So I built an agency.
I co-founded Axtra Studios, my software agency, and took the CTO seat, so I could build with a small senior team instead of alone.
And I keep building.
When something bugs me, I ship a fix. Pixlift, Worth It?, and QuickGrid, my own product, all came out of that itch.
Still day one.
Open for work, and still chasing the next hard problem like it's my first.
