ABOUT & EXPERIENCE
ABOUT ME
A production-minded web developer growing toward broader software engineering.
I am Khandker Shahed, a full-stack web developer based in Bologna, Italy. I have more than five years of professional experience working on Laravel/PHP applications, e-commerce platforms, REST APIs, LMS and business-management systems. My background also includes project coordination, database optimization, deployment and maintenance. I am currently strengthening my JavaScript fundamentals and learning the MERN stack while preparing to begin an MSc in Communication Engineering at the University of Bologna in September 2026.
I value software that solves the actual problem, stays understandable for the team and remains maintainable after delivery.
My next step is to combine my production web-development experience with stronger JavaScript, MERN and software-engineering foundations.
APPROACH
Four principles behind my work
End-to-end ownership
I am comfortable following a project from planning and database design through implementation, deployment and maintenance.
Practical collaboration
I have coordinated developers and worked with design, QA and other teams using tools such as Jira and sprint planning.
Performance & reliability
I pay attention to MySQL queries, debugging, application speed, production stability and maintainable fixes.
Continuous learning
I keep my current strengths clear while deliberately expanding into JavaScript, React, Next.js and the MERN stack.
