Syed Mahi
Backend & Systems Engineer · Dhaka, Bangladesh

Backend-focused builder working across Rust, Go, TypeScript, security-conscious systems, education platforms, and AI-assisted automation.

Summary

I turn ambiguous workflows into explicit backend systems. My strongest evidence is in tenant-aware education products, security research instrumentation, operational automation, and AI pipelines that add validation and repair around probabilistic output.

Experience

syed-systems.txt
AI Engineer · Syed Systems2024 -- Present

Build AI-assisted operational software that turns ERP, inventory, procurement, market-research, and order data into actionable workflows for operators.

  • ->Designed AI-driven ERP workflows spanning order management, inventory visibility, procurement planning, and operational decision support
  • ->Built a self-suggesting procurement system that uses inventory and order signals to surface replenishment needs and purchasing recommendations
  • ->Developed market-research tooling that structures product, competitor, and demand information into usable inputs for planning and purchasing decisions
knit-plus-limited.txt
Industrial Engineering & Process Optimization Intern · Knit Plus Limited2026

Observed and mapped factory production, cutting, merchandising, and IE/planning handoffs; developed process-improvement proposals.

  • ->Mapped production and cutting handoffs and proposed traceable departmental updates
  • ->Identified manual follow-up and information bottlenecks; no verified improvement percentage
  • ->Documented end-to-end production and cutting workflows to support standardization and continuous improvement
ipe-24-classroom.txt
Founder & Builder · IPE-24 ClassroomJune 2025 -- Present

Started by solving a real coordination problem for my university batch, then kept expanding the system as users and workflows exposed deeper constraints.

  • ->Built and deployed the first usable slice instead of waiting to finish learning
  • ->Learned product, architecture, deployment, and support through real usage
  • ->Established the habit of validating technical decisions against an actual workflow
self-employed.txt
Independent Software & Automation Freelancer · Self-Employed2023 -- 2024

Started working independently on software, workflow automation, and digital products before moving into a formal AI engineering role.

  • ->Worked directly with clients to turn ambiguous business needs into scoped software and automation deliverables
  • ->Built practical workflow and web-based tools for operational and business use cases
  • ->Developed early experience in requirements discovery, delivery ownership, and iterative improvement

Selected projects

projects/vendryx-commerce.txt
Vendryx Commerce

A Rust/PostgreSQL multi-tenant commerce platform with merchant administration, storefronts, and a partially completed operator control plane.

Rust · PostgreSQL · RLS · TypeScript · Docker · private repository

Source migrations implement fail-closed tenant policies; integration and release gates exist, but the latest available CI runs failed.

projects/hall-security.txt
Hall Security

A Rust-based research instrument for hall-entry identity verification and security monitoring, deliberately constrained to observe-only behavior.

Rust · TypeScript · PostgreSQL · mTLS · Hash Chain · Docker · private repository

Rust event-delivery code, observe-only invariants, and security gates exist. Latest CI and GPU release qualification remain unresolved.

projects/logbook-institution.txt
LogBook Institution

A Go and Next.js academic LMS/ERP foundation exploring Moodle-scale institutional workflows with explicit tenant boundaries and a modular backend.

Go · chi · pgx · Next.js · PostgreSQL · JWT · private repository

JWT rejection tests, modular Go APIs, and SQL migrations exist; the latest visible CI run failed and the teaching core remains incomplete.

projects/ipe24-classroom.txt
IPE-24 Classroom

A class operating system that centralizes announcements, schedules, resources, and AI-supported student workflows for an active academic community.

Next.js · PostgreSQL · Prisma · Redis · Telegram Bot · FastAPI · private repository

Built for a university cohort; the reported 60+ student users are not independently verified analytics.

Technical focus

backend-data.txt
Backend & Data
Rust — Typed edge/control services, event delivery, and domain APIs
Go — JWT authorization middleware, modular API handlers, and explicit SQL via pgx
PostgreSQL / SQL — Migrations and FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY tenant policies
TypeScript / Next.js — Full-stack interfaces and integration-heavy workflows
security-reliability.txt
Security & Reliability
Authentication & tenancy — JWT rejection tests, per-tenant context, and authorization boundaries
mTLS & audit — Authenticated edge communication and tamper-evident event records in a research prototype
Delivery recovery — Disk-backed event outboxes, retry/backoff, and dead-letter handling
Testing — Unit, invariant, integration, and negative-path tests; some current CI checks still fail
infrastructure-integration.txt
Infrastructure & Integration
Docker / Linux — Containerized service workflows and deployment scripts
GitHub Actions — Build, verification, security, and release workflow definitions
OpenAPI / typed contracts — Service contract boundaries and generated dashboard types
Gmail API / OAuth — Delegated send workflow in a public app; import endpoint needs remediation
applied-automation.txt
Applied Automation
Workflow design — Deterministic transforms, human review, and failure recovery
LLM integrations — AI-assisted education and operational tools; business outcomes not independently audited
Computer vision — Rust detection/tracking and identity event association in Hall Security research
