Hey, I'm Shoaib 👋
I'm Shoaib Hasan, a Backend Engineer from Dhaka, Bangladesh 🇧🇩. I build Go-first distributed systems with a focus on authentication, billing, and observability — currently serving 30K+ concurrent users on AWS at Placepoint.
With 4+ years of experience, I design event-driven microservices, REST and gRPC APIs, and production infrastructure on AWS ECS, Lambda, Docker, and Kubernetes. I also work with TypeScript/Node.js and integrate AI-assisted development tools into my workflow.
