About Candidate
I’m a Software Developer and Software Engineering Lead who enjoys building practical software that solves real business problems. I have experience working across the full development lifecycle, from understanding requirements and designing systems to writing code, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvement.
I work mainly with technologies such as React, Next.js, TypeScript, Python, Django, Golang, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, and REST APIs. I’ve worked on enterprise systems, revenue management platforms, e-commerce applications, and other business critical software.
What I enjoy most about software development is turning ideas and business requirements into simple, reliable, and scalable solutions. I also enjoy solving technical problems, improving existing systems, reviewing code, and working with other developers to build better products.
As a Software Engineering Lead, I combine hands on development with technical leadership, system design, and team collaboration, while always focusing on delivering software that is reliable, maintainable, and useful to the people who depend on it.

Work & Experience
At Brothers IT PLC, I work as a Lead Software Engineer, where I’m involved in both the technical side of projects and supporting the development team. I work with the team to understand requirements, design systems, make technical decisions, and turn business ideas into working software. I’m also involved in writing and reviewing code, solving technical problems, improving existing systems, and making sure our applications are reliable and easy to maintain. I help guide other developers when they face technical challenges, review their work, and make sure we follow good development practices. I also take part in system architecture, deployment, troubleshooting, and improving the overall performance and security of our applications. My role is not only about leading the team. I stay hands-on with development and work with technologies such as React, TypeScript, Django, Golang, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, and REST APIs.
During my internship period at Minab IT Solutions from June 2022 to September 2022, I was immersed in an enriching environment where I honed my skills in front-end application development using Vue.js and Nuxt.js, particularly focusing on creating server-side rendered (SSR) applications. Additionally, I gained proficiency in Vite and Tailwind CSS for efficient and responsive UI development. On the backend side, I delved into backend development using a combination of Golang and Express.js. I worked extensively with databases, including Hasura, PostgreSQL, and SQL, learning how to design efficient schema and execute complex queries to optimize data retrieval and manipulation. Moreover, I had the opportunity to delve into API development using GraphQL, gaining hands-on experience in building robust and flexible APIs to facilitate smooth communication between the frontend and backend components of applications
