Vibe Coder
in Erbil, Iraq

AI-assisted web apps, websites, and internal tools, built fast

For businesses in Erbil, the Kurdistan Region, and across Iraq · and remote clients worldwide

I'm Ibrahim Al-Bander, a vibe coder and AI-assisted developer in Erbil, Iraq. I build real, working software — web apps, sites, internal tools, and AI features — fast, by pairing with AI models and then reviewing, testing, and hardening every line before it ships. The proof is live: a B2B e-commerce store and this website itself. I work in person across Erbil and the Kurdistan Region, and remotely worldwide.

The short version

What is vibe coding?

Vibe coding means building software with AI instead of typing every line by hand: you describe what you want, the model drafts it, and you steer, review, and correct until it is right. Done seriously it is not blind copy-paste — the engineering judgement, testing, and hardening are still the developer's job. It is simply a much faster way to get a real, working product built.

How it works

How I actually build with AI

Fast does not mean careless. Read how I taught myself toship real software without a CS degree.

  1. Scope it clearly

    We agree exactly what the thing does before a line is written. A clear spec is what lets AI move fast without wandering off and building the wrong product.

  2. Build fast with AI

    I pair with AI models to draft the app quickly, then read every change and rewrite by hand the parts that need real judgement. The speed is the AI; the decisions are mine.

  3. Review, test & harden

    Edge cases, error handling, and security get tested against real inputs, not the happy path. This is the step that separates a working product from a demo.

  4. Ship to production

    It goes live on real infrastructure, documented so you or your team can run and extend it — not left as a prototype nobody can maintain.

Pricing

How much does it cost?

Projects are quoted fixed-price after a short scoping conversation, not billed by the hour — so you know the number before anything starts. A small tool or MVP is a focused build; a full site or app depends on the features, integrations, and how polished it needs to be. Tell me what you want to build and I will give you a fixed quote.

Who I work with

Local in Erbil, remote worldwide

Founders, small businesses, and teams who need real software without a full agency budget or a six-month timeline: in person around Erbil and the Kurdistan Region, and remotely across Iraq and worldwide. AI-assisted development is how one person can ship what used to take a team — and ship it fast.

Proof

Real, shipped software

DAD LINK is a live B2B e-commerce store for network infrastructure equipment in Iraq that I designed and shipped — a real storefront, not a template. And this website itself is built on Astro and Cloudflare Workers with a custom admin CMS I wrote. Both are in production.See the Projects section for the automation work too.

Quick answers

Hiring a vibe coder: FAQ

What is vibe coding?
Vibe coding is building software by working with AI models instead of typing every line by hand — you describe what you want, the model drafts it, and you steer, review, and correct until it is right. Done seriously it is not blind copy-paste: I read every change, test it, and harden it before it ships. It is a faster way to build, not a way to skip understanding the code.
Is software built this way actually reliable?
It is as reliable as the person steering it. AI speeds up the typing; the engineering — reading the output, testing edge cases, handling errors, and thinking about security — is still on me. I ship production software this way, including a live B2B e-commerce store and this very website, both running in the real world, not a demo.
What can you build for me?
Web apps and websites, internal tools and dashboards, AI features and integrations, and quick MVPs to test an idea before you commit to it. If it runs in a browser or talks to an API, it is in scope. If it is closer to automating a repetitive process, I also work as an n8n and AI automation developer.
Do you build entirely with AI, or write code by hand too?
Both, wherever each is the right tool. AI handles the boilerplate and the first draft fast; I write and rewrite the parts that need real judgement by hand. The client cares about a working, maintainable result — not which lines a model suggested — and that is what I deliver.
Can you work with clients outside Erbil and Iraq?
Yes. The work is delivered remotely, so I build for clients anywhere in the world, alongside in-person work for businesses in Erbil and across the Kurdistan Region and Iraq.
