# how I solve problems for founders & teams

01_tech_founders.yml

Tech Founders

HIGH PERFORMANCE

You have a vision, but need someone who can turn it into a robust, scalable system fast.

  • >Rapid prototyping and MVP development
  • >Building scalable architectures from day one
  • >Integrating AI and automation into core workflows
02_edtech.yml

EdTech Founders

DOMAIN EXPERT

You are building the future of education and need systems that handle complex academic constraints.

  • >Designing stateful academic workflows and policy-driven systems
  • >Building offline-first or low-connectivity resilient tools
  • >Automating student/teacher processes reliably
03_business_ops.yml

Business Owners

You want to optimize operations, reduce manual work, and scale without bloating headcount.

  • >Automating messy, manual operational workflows
  • >Building bespoke internal tools that fit your actual business
  • >Connecting disparate data sources into a single source of truth

# production systems, active builds, & architecture

In Production

Systems already solving real problems for active users and workflows.

4 projects
~/projects/production/ipe24-classroom

IPE-24 Classroom

[PRODUCTION]

A daily-used class operating system for IUT students that centralizes announcements, class routines, resources, and AI-supported student workflows.

role: Founder, Product Designer, Full-Stack Builder
Next.jsPostgreSQLPrismaRedisTelegram BotFastAPI
  • -> My first project and the place where my journey started in mid June 2025
  • -> Used daily by 60+ students as a shared academic source of truth
  • -> Combines web, automation, and AI support instead of being just a portal
  • -> Built around reliability, fast publishing, and guardrails for real student use
~/projects/production/email-automator

Email Automator

[PRODUCTION]

A Gmail-based bulk email tool for sending personalized announcements, grades, and reports with preview-first safety and structured data merging.

role: Product Builder
Next.jsNextAuthGoogle OAuthGmail APIHandlebars
  • -> Designed for high-stakes sending where one bad batch breaks trust
  • -> Merges messy CSV data into deterministic recipient workflows
  • -> Uses the sender's own Google identity instead of acting like a separate mail provider
  • -> Focused on safety, preview control, and low-friction operations
~/projects/production/slidecrafter-ai

SlideCrafter AI

[PRODUCTION]

A local-first AI presentation compiler that turns raw context into editable decks by generating structured slide instructions instead of vague slide text.

role: Product Builder
ReactTypeScriptVitePptxGenJSGemini
  • -> Treats deck generation as a compiler problem, not just prompt decoration
  • -> Validates layout structure before export to avoid broken slides
  • -> Supports research-heavy workflows with file ingestion and repair loops
  • -> Keeps final deck compilation close to the user for faster iteration
~/projects/production/logbook

LogBook

[PRODUCTION]

An enterprise LMS and educator workspace rebuilt from legacy PHP into a high-concurrency Go modular monolith backend on Microsoft Azure with a Next.js frontend.

role: Lead Systems Architect & Developer
Go (Golang)Next.jsTypeScriptPostgreSQLMicrosoft Azure
  • -> Evolved from 190+ feature PHP/Moodle monolith into a 17MB Go backend
  • -> Handles massive concurrency with minimal RAM/CPU on Microsoft Azure
  • -> Features BAETE/OBE outcome compliance, routine management, and Google Classroom sync
  • -> Supports both multi-tenant SaaS cloud and single-binary on-premise university deployment

Inventory

Shipped products and operational builds that are ready to be positioned, sold, or extended.

2 projects
~/projects/inventory/the-matrix-hours

The Matrix Hours

[INVENTORY]

A premium watch storefront shaped around trust, curated inventory, and a low-friction buying flow that fits the business better than overbuilt commerce complexity.

role: Product Builder
Next.jsReactGoogle SheetsWhatsApp Checkout
  • -> Built a product catalog around business reality instead of forcing heavyweight ecommerce
  • -> Uses Google Sheets as an owner-friendly inventory source with a normalization layer
  • -> Balances luxury presentation with operational simplicity
  • -> Designed for staged certainty rather than unnecessary infrastructure early
~/projects/inventory/tutors-hub

Tutors Hub

[INVENTORY]

A tutoring marketplace that behaves like an operations system, with workflow-heavy matching, verification, and human recovery paths built into the product.

role: Product Builder
Next.jsSpring BootPostgreSQLSupabaseFirebase
  • -> Designed as a workflow platform, not a simple tutor listing site
  • -> Models matching, routing, verification, and payout logic as business state transitions
  • -> Separates onboarding UX from security-sensitive backend workflows
  • -> Built around trust boundaries and operational recovery paths

Development

Projects I am actively sharpening, validating, or growing into stronger products.

1 project
~/projects/development/krishi-dristi

Krishi Dristi

[DEVELOPMENT]

An offline-first agricultural intelligence prototype that maps fragmented farm plots, detects crop issues, and works under real field constraints in Bangladesh.

role: Prototype Builder
PythonOpenCVTensorFlowMobileNetV2
  • -> Built around smallholder realities instead of imported precision-ag assumptions
  • -> Offline-first because the target environment cannot depend on stable internet
  • -> Combines classical vision and ML where each actually fits
  • -> One of my first deeper system-design plus ML experiments

Pre-Processing

Ideas in workflow discovery, system framing, and early product architecture.

3 projects
~/projects/pre-processing/ops

OPS

[PRE-PROCESS]

A pre-processing concept for an ad agency management system covering client intake, approvals, delivery flow, and internal visibility.

role: Problem Framing & System Design
Next.jsTypeScriptPostgreSQL
  • -> Currently in workflow discovery and system framing
  • -> Focused on making agency execution more structured and traceable
  • -> Exploring how sales, delivery, and reporting should connect cleanly
~/projects/pre-processing/blird

Blird

[PRE-PROCESS]

A hyper-local blood donation helper concept designed to reduce the time between a request, the right donor match, and actual life-saving coordination.

role: Problem Framing & System Design
Next.jsSupabaseMapsNotifications
  • -> Centered on urgent local coordination instead of a broad social feed
  • -> Exploring trust, donor availability, and geographic relevance as core constraints
  • -> Shaping the system around fast human response when time matters most
~/projects/pre-processing/iut-classroom-booking

Classroom Booking System for IUT

[PRE-PROCESS]

A pre-processing systems idea for making classroom availability, booking requests, and approval flows cleaner for IUT.

role: Problem Framing & System Design
Next.jsPostgreSQLCalendar WorkflowsRole-Based Access
  • -> Aims to reduce manual friction in institutional room scheduling
  • -> Exploring booking conflicts, approval paths, and operational visibility
  • -> Still in the system-mapping stage before implementation
