Experience

From computer vision to enterprise products to AI-assisted system recovery.

Founder
Porakoti Ventures Ltd.
Nov 2026 – Present
  • Founding a Bangladesh-born venture company that builds and owns businesses across industries.
  • Bootstrapping the Bangladesh Data Dividend Network. Data from Bangladesh is typically sold once, and contributors never see it again. We’re starting in the existing market to learn the field, with a vision where contributors keep earning whenever models trained on their data, or products built on those models, earn.
  • Packaging AI agent teams that run business workflows for companies as a managed service, with the vision of a portfolio of ready-made agent systems that businesses subscribe to instead of building their own.
  • Working towards launching a suite of SaaS products that create value for businesses, starting with hospitality, retail and inventory, and scaling to every core business operation.
  • Building a digital agency that designs, develops and grows our clients’ digital presence, initially serving businesses that need a strong online start, with the vision of being their long-term growth partner.
  • Thinking about fintech, mobility, e-commerce and cybersecurity.
Career Break
Jul 2026 – October 2026
  • After over 4 years of working with businesses, products and technology, I took three months off to spend time in Makkah and Madinah. It was something important to me personally, and I wanted to do it properly rather than rushing it. It gave me a lot of perspective, discipline, and patience, and I came back clear about what I want next. I’m now excited to get back into work and bring that focus with me.
Senior Business Analyst (Technical)
Apex DMIT
Sep 2025 – Jun 2026
  • PropSoft.ai: led business and technical analysis for a legacy property-preservation and maintenance platform; reverse-engineered existing modules and built the context of the undocumented As-Is state of the project using AI-DLC. This enabled the organization to think about future definition, design & development, releasing the project from roadmap paralysis & re-established the bi-directional logic traceability of the system.
  • Applied AWS AI-DLC and AI-assisted reverse engineering to recover undocumented business logic, workflows, design decisions and technical context for a critical initiative representing approximately BDT 80 million in investment, restoring a viable foundation for continued development.
  • Managed development coordination for mobile applications for Entrepreneurs’ Organization chapters and Apex Property.
  • Managed the inception phase of an AI-DLC-driven resort management system, Kazi Resort.
  • Prepared BRS, SRS, FRS and RTM; translated business needs into product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria and development backlogs.
  • Facilitated stakeholder workshops, sprint activities, backlog refinement, UAT, defect tracking, release coordination and end-user alignment.
Product Associate (Business Analysis Functions)
Tawoon
May 2022 – Aug 2025
  • Elicited requirements, documented functional specifications and ran operational gap analyses for enterprise retail POS/ERP applications.
  • Created user stories, workflow diagrams, wireframes and interactive prototypes to validate requirements before technical handoff.
  • Partnered with product managers, UI/UX and engineering to prioritise features and support delivery, change management and user adoption.
  • Supported Agile practices: backlog grooming, sprint planning, demos, UAT and release coordination.
