Client MissionFull-Stack Developer
Mar 2026 – Present
Hello, my name is Djamel Bougouffa
Full-stack engineer, remote-first and autonomous. I take products from idea to production, ship my own open-source tools, and bring that same craft to client teams worldwide.

Craft & Architecture
Hexagonal architecture, TDD, clean boundaries. I think in systems built to last, not just today's feature. Foundations that survive change.
Ownership & Autonomy
From idea to production, on my own. I own projects end to end, thrive in remote and async teams across time zones, and build the tools I'm missing.
Learning & Sharing
Always leveling up, out loud. I write, document, and open-source what I learn, because that is how craft compounds.
Selected Work
Take a look below at some of my featured work from the past few years, where I've successfully delivered 7 operational applications across various industries.
Products & Open Source
Beyond client missions, I build and ship my own products and open-source developer tools, from a full-stack carpooling marketplace to a suite of Rust tools.
