About

About Me

Dhaka, Bangladesh Open to new opportunities

I’m a Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience building practical software solutions for real-world business operations.

My experience spans software companies, enterprise systems, e-commerce, government ICT, and travel & property management. At NYBSYS Inc and ADN Telecom PLC, I worked on software products, enterprise applications, APIs, and ICT systems, building a strong foundation in professional software development and working with different technical and business requirements.

My 4+ years with PaiMart, previously known as Paikaree.com.bd and backed by JS Enterprise, were particularly valuable in understanding how a complete business platform works—not just the software, but the business behind it. I worked across e-commerce, sales, distribution, inventory, orders, payments, ERP/POS, reporting, APIs, and business workflows, gaining a strong understanding of how technology supports day-to-day business operations.

At Destinique Travel LLC, I work on business automation and digital solutions covering booking, property management, ad generation, promotions, visitor tracking, monitoring, APIs, dashboards, and operational workflows.

My strongest technical ground is PHP, Laravel, SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, and REST APIs, with experience across Angular, Vue, React, Node.js, Python, cloud/VPS infrastructure, Docker, and AI-assisted development.

I also have experience with data, BI dashboards, reporting, business automation, and digital transformation, giving me a broader understanding of how technology can improve business processes, operational efficiency, and decision-making.

What I enjoy most is working where technology and business come together—understanding the problem, finding a practical solution, building it, and seeing it work in the real world.

Capabilities

What I Do

The kinds of work I usually end up doing.

Backend & APIs

Most of my day-to-day work is PHP/Laravel, MySQL, and REST APIs — shipping features and keeping production healthy.

Full-stack when needed

I can work on the UI side too (Angular, Vue, React, plain JS) when a feature needs it.

Business software

A lot of my experience is e-commerce, ERP/POS, booking, inventory, and business automation — not just landing pages.

Automation & reporting

I like cutting down manual work: dashboards, reports, business automation, and digital transformation that save time.

Data & SQL

Comfortable with schema design, query tuning, and pulling useful reports out of messy operational data.

Production support

Debugging live issues, checking logs, fixing broken integrations, and helping with deploys on VPS/cloud setups.

Beyond the IDE

Beyond Coding

Writing features is only part of it — a lot of the job is process, data, and people.

Business understanding

I try to learn how the work actually gets done before writing code — otherwise you build the wrong thing.

Automation

If people are repeating the same clicks or spreadsheet steps, I look for a small tool, report, or workflow that cuts that down.

Data

A lot of “business questions” are really SQL and reporting problems. I’m comfortable digging into that.

Problem solving

Production bugs, broken integrations, slow queries — I’ve spent a lot of time chasing those down.

Working with people

Used to talking with developers, QA, managers, and ops folks (local and remote) to get something shipped.

Ownership

I take features from “we need this” through build, ship, and follow-up — not just handing off code and walking away.

Process

How I Work

I like understanding the problem before locking in a technical approach.

Understand Build Check Ship Fix

I aim for something the team can actually use and maintain — not just something that demos well once.

Fine taking a feature from “we need this” through development, testing help, deploy support, and later tweaks when real usage shows gaps.
