Dhaka (GMT+6)·Available for work

I build robust backend systems, resilient APIs, and production web applications. My primary focus is on data integrity, sub-80ms P95 latency, query optimization in PostgreSQL, and clean end-to-end architecture with Node.js and Next.js.


How I Engineer Systems

Data Integrity First

Pessimistic row-locking (SELECT FOR UPDATE) and idempotency keys to eliminate race conditions and double charges.

Low-Latency APIs

Sub-80ms P95 responses through connection pooling, compound index tuning, and Redis caching layers.

Production Resilience

Docker multi-stage builds, HTTP-only JWT token rotation, structured logging, and zero-downtime restarts.
