Hire a TypeScript Developer — Full-Stack, Remote Worldwide
Remote worldwide · UTC+5 · strict types · shared DTOs · Zod
I'm Adnan Ali, a senior full-stack developer who has used TypeScript on every layer of every project for the last four years — React and Next.js frontends, NestJS and Node backends, shared types across the boundary, and CI scripts. Hire a TypeScript developer who uses the type system to catch whole classes of bugs before they ship, not just to satisfy a linter. Strict null checks, discriminated unions, and shared DTOs are how I keep large codebases refactorable with confidence.
I work remotely worldwide from Lahore (UTC+5), overlapping European mornings and US East Coast afternoons. On a typed codebase, onboarding is faster and refactors are safe — I set up the types, the runtime validation with Zod, and the tooling so your team moves faster six months from now, not just today.

End-to-end type safety
Shared types and DTOs across frontend and backend so the API contract can't silently drift.
Runtime validation
Zod schemas that validate at the edges and infer types, so runtime and compile-time agree.
Migrating JS to TS
Incrementally typing a JavaScript codebase without stopping feature work.
Advanced typing
Generics, discriminated unions, and mapped or conditional types where they remove real bugs.
Type-safe data access
Prisma or TypeORM for queries the compiler checks, plus migrations you can trust.
Tooling & CI
Strict tsconfig, ESLint, and type-checking in CI so bad types never reach main.
Three steps, no mystery
Intro call
A 30-minute call to understand the goal, scope, and constraints. No charge, no obligation.
Written proposal
A scope with milestones, a timeline, and a fixed or weekly rate — whichever fits the work better.
Weekly delivery
Work ships in weekly increments you can review, with a shared board and a demo link that's always current.
Common questions
- How much does it cost to hire a TypeScript developer?
- For freelance work I typically bill between $30 and $60 per hour depending on scope and commitment, or a fixed price for well-defined projects. Longer retainers cost less per hour. I always quote before we start, so there are no surprise invoices.
- Can you migrate our JavaScript codebase to TypeScript?
- Yes, incrementally. I turn on strict mode gradually, type the highest-risk modules first, and keep shipping features throughout — no big freeze while everything gets annotated.
- Do you work with US and EU timezones?
- Yes. I'm in Lahore (UTC+5), which overlaps EU mornings and US East Coast afternoons. I keep a few hours of daily live overlap for standups, pairing, and reviews, and I'm flexible on exact hours for the right project.
- Do you type the backend and frontend both?
- Yes — that's the main payoff. I share types across the boundary, so a change to an API response surfaces as a compile error in the frontend instead of a bug in production.
- Do you use Zod or plain TypeScript types?
- Both, for different jobs. TypeScript checks at compile time; Zod validates untrusted data at runtime and infers the matching type. Together they cover the whole gap.
