Record NS/2014–2026

The engineering record of

Najmus Sakib

Head of Engineering, Tharwa Funkash Technologies

I have built software for public institutions, development programmes and businesses since 2014, used in Asia, Africa, Europe and Australia. This record lists what I delivered. Every entry tells you how to check it.

Part 1 How to read this record

Each exhibit makes one claim. Beside it is the kind of evidence behind it and how you can check it yourself.

Most of this work was delivered through employers and agencies, so I don't offer client references. I offer something you can test directly: my knowledge of the systems themselves.

Part 2 Exhibits

I build systems for public institutions.

  • Mimba, a dairy management system for the Bangladesh Army: a Laravel web system and a Flutter app that identifies cattle by QR code. I managed the project from 2023 to 2025.
  • Two systems for the Department of Livestock Services: a web and Android application for its PARB project, and a system that manages staff training and import-export trade approvals (NOCs).
  • A training management system for Dhaka WASA, the city's water and sewerage authority.
  • A complete breeder, hatchery and beneficiary management system for PKSF's native-chicken programme.

I deliver across borders, and train the people who use it.

  • A fund management system for Heifer International, used in four countries: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Malawi and Rwanda. I trained its users in each country remotely.
  • A restaurant point-of-sale system for a Norwegian restaurant chain (Node.js, AngularJS, MongoDB, Kafka).

I integrate with government systems.

  • Gtax, a tax system for an Australian accounting firm, integrated with Australian government tax APIs (Laravel, Vue). I drove the project from 2021 to 2023.

I run production infrastructure, not only code.

  • At Tharwa Funkash I run all company infrastructure: the servers, Google Workspace, and a self-hosted GitLab with automated deploy pipelines.
  • Earlier I shipped the Norwegian point-of-sale system through GitLab CI/CD to Docker and Kubernetes on AWS, and self-hosted an ERP on CentOS and Nginx.

I take products from requirements to launch.

  • AegisMail, a platform that detects fraudulent email. I owned its architecture through to production.
  • Digital African Women and Trad, two e-commerce platforms, from requirements to launch.
  • Limpiar, a platform for commercial cleaning services sold to businesses.

My work has been recognised internationally.

  • I built the API behind the Public Toilet App, which lets people in Dhaka find the nearest public toilet. The app, made by Preneur Lab, won the World Summit Award (2016 winners, Smart Settlements & Urbanization).

I put AI to work in production systems.

  • An AI assistant that reads purchase orders sent as PDF files and files them as Sales Orders in the company's ERPNext.
  • Hands-on with LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini), MCP, multi-agent orchestration, retrieval (RAG), model evaluation, and local inference, so data can stay on your own hardware.
