Available for remote contracts

I rebuild the systems businesses outgrow.

Technical Lead in Dhaka, building since 2016. I embed with startups, work out what is actually broken, and ship the fix myself.

What I get hired for.

In the product, not the ticket queue

I sit with the business, find where it actually breaks, design the fix, build it, and test it on the spot. Startups get an owner, not an order-taker.

ERP and back-office systems

ERPNext, Odoo, Dolibarr and Akaunting, shaped to how a business really operates instead of forcing it onto stock modules. Usually self-hosted, so the data stays theirs.

E-commerce and inventory

Headless WordPress and WooCommerce, multi-inventory systems, and checkout built around how people actually pay in the market you are selling to.

Legacy systems into SaaS

Breaking monoliths into something that can be sold per seat and deployed without a maintenance window. This is most of what I am hired to do.

AI that earns its place

Claude and OpenAI APIs, retrieval search, and n8n automation, including Bangla and Banglish. Shipped into products, not left in a notebook.

Leading the team that ships

Architecture calls, code review, and mentoring. I have run a team of twelve across Laravel, Symfony, Node.js, FastAPI and Vue without dropping delivery.
