About

Architect by instinct,
engineer by craft.

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with deep roots in enterprise backend development using Java, C#, .NET, and Spring Boot. My career has taken me through banking core systems, payment gateways, SaaS platforms, and cloud-native applications — giving me a rare breadth of domain experience.

At VoiceCradle LLC, I architect and lead development of AWS-hosted applications — handling everything from system design and CI/CD pipelines to team management and third-party API integrations. At DataSoft, I built the engineering fundamentals that continue to serve me: requirements analysis, clean architecture, and rigorous testing disciplines.

I'm currently deepening my expertise in Kubernetes, Terraform, and event-driven architecture — positioning myself at the intersection of senior engineering and cloud infrastructure. I hold a B.Eng in Computer Science from Noakhali Science & Technology University, where my thesis focused on SQL injection analysis and prevention.

Outside of code: I run programming workshops, led NSTU's Open Source Network as Secretary, and champion PCI-DSS compliance practices in payment systems.
