About
┌─[fahim@BIDADARI:~]─[18:07]
└─$ cat about.md
10+ years of software engineering experience across backend systems, infra automation, and performance work, with a number behind every claim. Comfortable across multiple backend services, able to pick up full-stack work when a team needs it, and just as much at home on a small startup team as inside a large, established org.
