Shovon

I'm Shovon, a product engineer.

I'd rather watch a problem than hear it described. At Zagle, the startup I co-founded, that meant spending days in shops watching staff retype one order into four places, then building the system that ends it. 10+ businesses now pay for it.

Available full-time from January 2027 · No notice period

Zagle is the product I co-founded and build. It keeps orders, stock, couriers and books in sync in one place, and does the typing for you.

Results so far

Builds I'm proud of

Zagle

Orders from a business's website, Facebook, WhatsApp and shop land on one page. A sale anywhere updates stock everywhere. Each order is checked for fraud and booked with Pathao, Steadfast or RedX in one click, and the books keep themselves. Over $1M in sales has gone through Zagle so far.

GangUp

When muggings rose in Dhaka, students felt unsafe travelling alone. On GangUp, verified students going the same way shared one vehicle and split the fare. My two co-founders had the idea, and I was its product engineer. More than 5,000 students verified with their university email.

Experience

    Zagle

    Co-founder, product engineer · Full-time

    I co-founded Zagle with two teammates, and I'm its product engineer. Together we automated the routine operations of businesses that sell in several places. Their staff no longer retype orders, stock counts and courier bookings. My co-founders run sales and the business, and I turn what we hear from customers into the product.

    Purple Dice

    Software engineer · Part-time

    I built a leading Bangladeshi bank's new-card launch site, where people could check whether they qualified and apply. I also built a B2B store where aviation maintenance teams find parts by part number and request quotes, two or three more online shops, and two news portals whose editors publish all day.

  3. May 2023 – Jun 2024

    AppCube

    Software engineer · Part-time

    My first agency job, part-time alongside university. I built a multilingual team chat like Slack, a restaurant booking system for diners and restaurants, and the mobile app for a multi-vendor B2B restaurant platform. I also helped build an AI notes and task planner.

    Independent (US and Upwork clients)

    Freelance full-stack developer · Freelance

    Since 2021 I've built products for clients on my own that earn them money: a platform for finding and managing sales leads and online browser games. It was close to full-time in 2021 and 2022, and occasional since.

    1099 [dot] ai

    A CPA firm now files its clients' 1099s with half the team it needed before. Filing them meant its staff going through each client's year of bank statements by hand to find who had been paid what. I built a service that reads the statements, works out which forms are due and files them with the IRS; anything it isn't sure of becomes a one-tap question for the client.

    Stockbloq

    Traders wanted to screen stocks and test strategies, but the market data came from a provider that limits how often you can ask for it, so screens would slow down as more people used them. For a client, I built Stockbloq's web app and the server behind it, which keeps its own copy of the data, so many people can use it at once and it stays quick. Its mobile app, built by another developer, runs on the same server.

    Background remover

    Small sellers need clean product photos, but most background removers mean uploading the picture to someone else's server. As a personal project, I built a free tool that removes the background on the seller's own device, so the photo never leaves it and there's no server to pay for. The page stays responsive while it works.

    VSB

    More than 1,760 students paid for VSB and studied with it. They needed worked solutions to their textbook exercises and couldn't find them quickly, so I built a site where they find the one they need by chapter and exercise in seconds. I built all of it, and my partner ran sales and marketing.
