There is no introduction or tl;dr here as summarizing my life in a few sentences is beyond my ability. Apologies for the short story that follows.

I grew up in Bogra, a small city in northern Bangladesh. Life was simple and peaceful. However, Everything changed when I got my first PC. From gaming day & night to tweaking the PC with hack tools (apologies, Microsoft and others) and exploring tech articles, it became my passion.

My high school days were rather uneventful. I frequently went on bicycle rides with friends, discussing life and its beliefs.

I was fortunate to ace the admission test and secure a spot at the country's top engineering school, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, in my desired department, computer science. This reignited my passion and expanded my knowledge of programming. Over time, I realized the software industry was the path to follow, as I felt a special passion for building things.

I moved to Dhaka in 2015, the mega city, lived in my university's dorm. Besides studies, I taught programming to some aspiring coders and high school students, volunteered for Badhan, organized events, including a national tech fest, and traveled around Bangladesh and India. I ignored my embarrassing design skills and worked on some things.

In my second year, I interned at Durbin Labs, where I gained valuable experience and learned the fundamentals of software engineering.

I graduated in 2019. These were the best four years of my life!

My first job after graduation was at Field Buzz. This experience taught me how to learn effectively, understand project development processes, and navigate a professional work environment.

Always eager to explore and create, I developed the frontend for Itehk, a Singapore-based delivery startup and the website for DeVPro Partners, a leading solar energy consultancy in Bangladesh.

When COVID hit, I took on some voluntary duties. I worked with Shomonnoi Bangladesh, helping those in need during the challenging times. One of my collaborative projects, TraanChitro, was featured in a national newspaper.

I was invited to judge a couple of national hackathons, which was an invaluable experience. Additionally, I took system design sessions and began delving deeper into startups and system architectures.

I also worked part-time at NestGo, an US company for four months. It was a great experience working to build a no-code visual programming language, FloJoy.

From 2023 to March 2025, I was with Optimizely, a global leader in DXP. Working alongside a diverse team spread across the globe was a tremendous learning experience for me.

I joined my friend Piash as the co-founder of Monsha in 2024, an AI-powered SaaS tool designed for teachers worldwide. I also hold the role of CTO there.

Building Monsha has been an incredible journey. We've grown to serve over 40,000+ teachers globally. Our AI platform helps educators create courses, generate teaching resources, and plan curricula - essentially simplifying all the out-of-classroom tasks that consume teachers' valuable time.

In 2024, we were accepted into LAUNCH Accelerator, one of the leading startup accelerators in Silicon Valley, founded by Jason Calacanis.

I'm available as a mentor in CS and SE at Intellectify.io to guide aspiring developers, share industry insights, and help them achieve their career goals.

Additionally, I've collaborated with friends from the US on developing a social app, and a micro-SaaS tool.

I enjoy browsing the internet and diving into random topics – Reddit is my place. I'm a Manchester United fan as I like depressing weekends. :(

I'd love to travel more, but I'm not entirely sure why I haven't done so yet. Recently, I went to Kashmir and Nepal with my lovely wife, and I'm hoping we can keep the travel streak going!
