About Me

I am a Full-Stack Software Engineer with extensive experience designing and developing scalable web applications, enterprise software, and mission-critical systems. Currently, I work as a Senior Software Engineer at Softzino Technologies, building modern full-stack solutions using Go, Gin, PHP, Laravel, React, Next.js, TanStack, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker, and cloud-native technologies. I also contribute as an Independent Contractor with Apple Inc., collaborating remotely on product development and high-quality software engineering initiatives.

Previously, I served as a Senior Software Programmer at the Bangladesh Army, where I developed advanced 2D and 3D GIS-based simulation systems for military training, disaster management, and UN peacekeeping operations. Before that, I worked as a Research Programmer at the Cyber Security Center of Daffodil International University, conducting research in cybersecurity, cryptography, and secure software development while delivering technical training and mentoring students.

Alongside my professional career, I am pursuing a PhD in Computer Engineering at Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), Malaysia. My research focuses on artificial intelligence, medical image processing, steganography, cybersecurity, and privacy-preserving systems. I have authored multiple IEEE and Scopus-indexed publications and actively contribute to both academic research and industrial software development. I am passionate about building secure, scalable, and innovative software solutions that create real-world impact.
