About Me
I’m Muhammad Shahadul Haider, a Senior Full Stack Engineer with a wealth of experience in creating scalable applications and data systems. My expertise lies in building cloud-native solutions, architecting distributed systems, and crafting high-performance data pipelines that drive business transformation.
My Journey
My journey in software engineering began at the University of Dhaka, where I learned to code as an undergraduate student of Computer Science and Engineering. Since then, I’ve worked with organizations ranging from yc startups to enterprises, helping them build robust, scalable solutions across various domains.
Throughout my career, I’ve cultivated expertise in:
- Data Systems Architecture: Designing and implementing systems that process millions of records daily with high reliability and performance
- Cloud-Native Development: Building applications optimized for deployment on AWS and GCP with Kubernetes orchestration
- Full Stack Engineering: Developing end-to-end solutions using modern technology stacks
- Performance Optimization: Analyzing and improving system performance, reducing latency, and optimizing resource utilization
Professional Philosophy
I believe in:
- Problem-First Approach: Understanding the core problem before jumping to technical solutions
- Simplicity Over Complexity: Building maintainable systems with the right level of abstraction
- Continuous Learning: Staying current with emerging technologies and best practices
- Knowledge Sharing: Contributing to the community through mentorship and open-source projects
Technical Philosophy & Approach
My approach to software engineering is guided by several core principles that have served me well throughout my career:
First Principles Thinking
I approach problems by breaking them down to their fundamental elements before building solutions. This allows me to avoid unnecessary complexity and create more elegant, maintainable systems.
Balance Pragmatism with Perfection
While I value clean code and architectural purity, I recognize that real-world engineering requires pragmatic trade-offs. I strive to find the sweet spot between theoretical ideals and practical constraints.
Systems Thinking
I view software as part of larger ecosystems. When designing solutions, I consider not just the immediate technical requirements, but also the broader context, including operations, maintenance, security, and business objectives.
Continuous Refinement
I believe the best systems evolve incrementally. I favor approaches that allow for constant improvement through feedback loops, measured outcomes, and iterative development.
Beyond Code
When I’m not coding, I enjoy:
- Family Time: Spending quality time with my son and my family
- Reading: Books on history, politics, and fiction
- Writing: Blogging about technology and personal development
- Travel: Exploring new places and cultures
- Open Source: Contributing to community projects
Learning & Growth
My professional development has been shaped by a commitment to continuous learning. Some approaches that have helped me grow:
- Deliberate Practice: Focusing on specific skills with targeted exercises and feedback
- Teaching Others: Explaining concepts helps solidify my own understanding
- Cross-Disciplinary Learning: Drawing inspiration from fields outside software engineering
- Building Side Projects: Creating personal projects to experiment with new technologies
- Technical Book Club: Participating in group discussions about technical literature
