AI/ML Engineer — Bengali Speech AI · Production Systems · GenAI
I build production ML systems that ship. Published first-author research on Bengali speaker diarization (BUET CSE Fest 2026), achieved 56% inference speedup via knowledge distillation. Kaggle Competitions Master — Global Rank #29, Top 1%.
Currently: Building AI-powered tools at Toolly.
Looking for: AI/ML Engineer roles at global AI startups.
How I Think
I don't optimize for accuracy. I optimize for production impact.
Every system I build starts with the constraint, not the model. What's the latency budget? What happens when data drifts? What does a wrong prediction cost the business?
60–70% of AI/ML engineering is software engineering. I build systems that don't break — and when they do, I've already built the monitoring to catch it.

About
I'm an AI/ML Engineer from Dhaka, Bangladesh. My journey started during Computer Science studies at BNIST, where courses in linear algebra, probability, and data structures sparked a deep curiosity about how machines learn from data. That curiosity turned into 2+ years of building production ML systems — from end-to-end pipelines with ZenML and MLflow to Dockerized inference services with FastAPI.
I earned a Kaggle Master rank across 22 competitions, published a first-author conference paper on Bengali speaker diarization (BUET CSE Fest 2026), and founded Toolly — a community-driven AI tool discovery platform. My recommender system work delivered a 10% sales lift for a client in 3 months.
When I'm not training models, I explore the frontier of Generative AI — LLMs, RAG pipelines, and LangChain/LangGraph agents. I believe the best ML work happens at the intersection of strong engineering and genuine curiosity.
