Zetmel Safraz Razik
About

Senior engineering,

I'm Safraz Razik — a senior software engineer with 15+ years across startups, independent products and Fortune 500 environtments. Through Zetmel, I design, build, review and recover software using structured AI-assisted workflows and hands-on engineering ownership.

Background

Engineering with AI acceleration

I'm Safraz Razik — founder of Zetmel, an AI-accelerated software engineering studio. I'm a software professional with 15+ years in full-stack development, project leadership, and startup co-founding.

My expertise spans modern JavaScript frameworks (React, Vue, TypeScript, Next.js), backend systems (Node.js, PHP, Python), and enterprise platforms like Oracle Commerce Cloud and Oracle Storefront Framework.

What sets my work apart today is the integration of AI into the engineering process. I run local LLM environments (Ollama, OpenCode, Claude Code), evaluate coding models (Qwen, Llama, DeepSeek) for code quality and task fit, and use structured prompting and context-management workflows.

Approach

How I work

Three principles guide every project I take on.

Deep Experience

15+ years shipping production software across the stack — web, mobile, desktop, and enterprise. Seasoned engineering judgment to guide every project.

AI-Accelerated

Local LLM environments (Ollama, OpenCode, Claude Code) with structured prompting and context-management workflows. Model evaluation for code quality and task fit.

Production-Ready

Technical audits, structured milestones, and recovery sprints ensure every deliverable meets production standards. No shortcuts on quality.

Beyond Software

Engineering curiosity
beyond the screen

My engineering interests extend into electronics, IoT and smart devices. I enjoy connecting software with physical controls, sensors and automation—from custom Arduino systems to smart-home experiments.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about working with me.

Working together

What types of projects do you take on?
I build web applications, mobile apps, developer tools, and enterprise solutions. Recent work includes B2B commerce platforms, open-source libraries, and AI-accelerated development workflows.
How does AI fit into your workflow?
I use local LLM environments (Ollama, OpenCode) for research, architecture, implementation, debugging, code review, and technical auditing. Every AI-generated change goes through a structured review before reaching production.
What's your experience with enterprise platforms?
I spent 4+ years at Motorola Solutions as a Senior Frontend Engineer, leading the transition from legacy Oracle Commerce Cloud to a React-based Oracle Storefront Framework.

Open source

What open-source tools have you built?
I created Vue File Agent (a Vue.js file upload component) and Rockplate (a JavaScript template engine). Both are available on GitHub.
Do you contribute to open source?
Yes. Beyond my own projects, I contribute to libraries and tools I use in production. Open source is a core part of how I learn and give back to the community.
