Abrar Abdullah Rafid · Software developer & hardware hobbyist

Software by profession. Hardware by curiosity.

I’m Abrar, a software developer and undergraduate student based in Dhaka. I currently work across web development and AI-focused roles while building independent software and hardware projects. I’m looking for new opportunities to learn, contribute, and grow with ambitious teams.

Selected work

Evidence before credentials.

Projects come first because they show how I frame problems, make decisions, and carry systems into real use.

Capabilities

One practical mindset, three working layers.

I organize skills by what they help me build. Technologies are evidence-backed where possible and separated from tools I am still exploring.

Software, infrastructure, and electronics are not isolated interests. They are layers of the same system.

Software systems

Evidence: AHLC · Client websites

Full-stack products, APIs, role-based platforms, and maintainable application architecture.

Academic foundation

Strong fundamentals, directed by curiosity.

My formal science education is the foundation; building complete systems is how I test and extend what I learn.

Continued learning

Credentials as supporting evidence.

Courses and simulations extend my range, but they support—not replace—the project work and academic record above.

How I think

Building with the whole system in mind.

I care about how a system behaves in the real world—not only how it runs locally.

Architecture before complexity

Understand the problem, boundaries, and trade-offs before adding moving parts.

Practical over fashionable

Choose technology because it improves the system, not because it is the newest option.

Own the full path

Design, implementation, deployment, and operation are parts of one technical problem.

Build to keep learning

Use every project to deepen both technical judgment and the ability to explain decisions.

Why both

The most interesting problems cross boundaries.

Two ways of buildingCode
+ CircuitsProfessional work · Personal curiosity

I build software professionally because I enjoy shaping complex requirements into clear, maintainable systems.

Hardware is where I experiment for the joy of it—using microcontrollers, circuits, and automation to see code leave the screen and create a physical response.
