The Fred Weasly of NSU ACM SC. Hack, make it, bring it together are among his specialties. Honestly speaking I’ve seen very few people write production-ready PHP and still maintain a sense of elegancy in their code. Nazmul is also big on his sense of clarity and righteousness. Usually, people active in the student communities excel in only one area, at best two. He’s good at handling both code and people, also has some great sense of humor to cheer you up at times. I can’t imagine the Operations team of NSU ACM SC without him.

Rest be assured, he’s an asset for any organization, especially if you’re looking for someone with massive multitasking capabilities.

Mostafa Didar

Co-Founder and CTO, Early Advantage

I’ve had the chance to work with Nazmul over a software project where he built a large scale web application for a fintech firm that I managed. Nazmul has been a very professional individual with a keen eye for detail and problem solving. He took challenges head on and always came up with different solutions and took the best one upon discussion. His professionalism and delivery time commitment is quite admirable. He is also a very good academic besides being a good programmer and problem solver.

I wish you the best and may all your aspirations come true!
