Who I Am

I'm a DevOps and Backend Engineer based in Chattogram, Bangladesh, with a strong foundation in Python-based systems, enterprise ERP development, and AI-powered automation. I specialize in bridging the gap between complex business workflows and modern software infrastructure.

At Rapid Lodgments, I architect and ship custom ERP applications built on the Frappe framework, containerize multi-service systems with Docker, manage CI/CD pipelines, and integrate large language models (LLMs) directly into production workflows — creating systems that are not just functional, but intelligently automated.

My engineering philosophy is rooted in scalability, reliability, and maintainability. I believe that great infrastructure is invisible — it just works. Whether I'm designing a REST API, debugging a Dockerized deployment, or wiring up an AI agent to automate document processing, I approach every problem with precision and care.

I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science & Engineering from Port City International University, and I'm actively expanding into cloud certifications and Kubernetes orchestration. I'm open to remote-first opportunities with global teams building serious products.

08 / Growth Roadmap

Profile Improvement Suggestions

Targeted recommendations to elevate your profile to the senior/global remote tier.

01
Earn a Cloud Certification

AWS Cloud Practitioner or GCP Associate is a fast win (~1 month) that unlocks cloud-native job listings globally. It signals credibility to recruiters immediately.

02
Learn Kubernetes (K8s)

You're strong with Docker — the next natural step is Kubernetes. Even basic K8s knowledge (Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps) dramatically widens your DevOps opportunities.

03
Add Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform)

Terraform is the industry standard for IaC. A public GitHub repo showing a simple AWS or GCP infrastructure in Terraform would be a powerful portfolio addition.

04
Publish GitHub Actions CI/CD Workflows

Create a public repo with a well-documented GitHub Actions pipeline for a Python or Frappe app. This directly demonstrates CI/CD skills that employers want to see.

05
Write Technical Blog Posts

Publishing on Dev.to or Hashnode about "Deploying Frappe with Docker" or "Integrating LLMs into ERP workflows" establishes you as a thought leader and drives recruiter discovery.

06
Add Quantified Achievements

Add metrics to your experience: "Reduced deployment time by X%", "Automated X manual processes", "Integrated LLM that handles X documents/day." Numbers make the impact real.

07
Build Your LinkedIn Profile

A complete LinkedIn profile (with the headline above, featured projects, and recommendations from colleagues) is critical for global remote job applications from recruiters.

08
Open-Source a Frappe Utility

Create and publish a small open-source Frappe app or Docker setup on your GitHub. It demonstrates expertise, generates stars/followers, and gives recruiters something concrete to evaluate.
