Dhaka, BangladeshSince 2002

Software engineer · founder

More than half a lifetime building apps and sites.

Somehow, tools for writing keep coming back.

Latest: a Flutter notes app with its own Markdown editor, alongside eight years on Divi, now Divi 5. Earlier, engineering for a social network for bloggers, and Bangla typing tools.

About

Started programming in 2002, when most computers could not type Bangla, so the first projects were tools to fix that. That work still shapes what matters most: typing, editing, and how quickly an app responds.

Along the way: co-founding a company, running a small WordPress studio, and, since 2017, working remotely with teams in Europe and the US.

Approach

End to end
Owns a product from the first sketch to the server it runs on: choosing the right stack and tools, design, app, API and deployment, keeping it fast and stable from day one.
Fast to the touch
Keeps track of the speed people actually feel. In the notes app, a keystroke takes 12.9 ms in a 3,800‑block note, and the app opens in 0.8 s with 5,000 notes.
AI-assisted engineering
Works with AI coding agents every day, and engineering is in the setup around them: a self‑designed workflow that evolves as the agents improve. Every token turns into code that is written test‑first, reviewed and security‑checked.

Selected work

2026 · Flutter

Private notes app

Offline‑first, with its own rich‑text Markdown editor, encrypted vaults, sync, and home-screen widgets written in Kotlin. The Android build is in internal testing, with iOS and macOS next.

2018 to now · React, TypeScript

Divi

Helped rebuild Divi from the ground up as Divi 5: fast, lean, and a new take on page builders. Worked on the WooCommerce modules, asset pipeline and API docs.

2006 to 2014 · AWS

Bloggers.com

Ran engineering at Moonrank for this social network for bloggers, which peaked at over 5 million unique visitors a month.

2002 to 2007 · Windows 98 and XP

Bangla software

Dictionaries, spell-checkers and input tools, built when few programs supported Bangla, so people could write in their own language.

Experience

  1. 2018 to now

    Elegant Themes · Developer

    Built Background Mask & Pattern and Layers View for Divi 4, among other features. Brought WordPress core’s PHPUnit setup to Divi’s tests and rebuilt the CI for Divi 5, where the work goes on: new features, test coverage and code review.

    Inpsyde · WordPress engineer

    Enterprise WordPress work at a German agency: a CRM project for Facebook, Stripe payments and a multisite relaunch, for high‑traffic sites on WordPress VIP and WP Engine.

    A small WordPress studio grown out of freelance work: the Snowbird theme, later free on WordPress.org, the SuperPack plugins, and custom builds for clients abroad.

    More than 50 social platforms for founders in over a dozen countries, in seven languages, plus the databases, load balancing and CDN that kept them fast.

    Bangaliana · Founder
