About
From Dhaka to drone control — twelve years of shipping.
I didn’t start my career by joining a company — I started by building one. In 2012, fresh out of my CSE degree in Dhaka, I founded Power GP BD and led it for six years. We shipped more than 100 Android applications across enterprise, B2B and consumer verticals, and earned two awards from the Facebook Startup Program along the way. One of our apps, a multimedia product called Theatre, crossed 500,000 downloads on the Play Store. Running a company taught me the thing no job could: how to own an outcome completely.
Then I went deep on craft. At Kutumbita I designed and built Kinship.ai — a real-time communication platform for the garments industry — entirely on my own, from architecture through Play Store release. At Samsung R&D I worked at consumer scale as Lead Software Engineer II: health-tracking apps in the Samsung Health ecosystem, WearOS companions syncing losslessly over BLE to Tizen watches, and even feature work in the SmartThings iOS app.
In 2022 I joined Plentina, a US fintech bringing Buy-Now-Pay-Later to the Philippines and Vietnam. I led the Android side — payment gateway integrations, Kotlin Flow state management, and a full migration to Jetpack Compose while Compose was still in beta.
Today I’m in Singapore at Avetics, a drone-technology company, where I own the ground-up rewrite of the flagship DJI drone-control application — real-time video, TCP socket infrastructure, autonomous flight — and set the architecture standards for the Android team I mentor.
And because founding never really leaves you, I’ve gone back to it from the other side: as an equity CTO for early-stage startups, building complete products for founders who can’t yet afford a technical team — and as a trainer, selected by Google, to 100+ developers across Asia.
What’s next? Three doors are open: a senior/staff/lead Android role anywhere in the world, building your product as a client, or partnering as your startup’s CTO. Pick one — the CV is below either way.

A few survivors from the 100+ apps era. These shipped years ago and are no longer in the store — they’re here because they’re where the reps came from.
