2020
Started teaching myself to build for the web.
Picked up HTML, CSS, JavaScript — then fell into the TypeScript ecosystem and never really left.
Sazzad Ahmed.
I'm Sazzad — a self-taught full-stack engineer working on the web since 2020. I live in the end-to-end TypeScript world and treat staying current like a medical doctor treats CME: it's part of the job, not a side quest.
I use AI the way a senior engineer uses a junior pair — an assisting engineer I direct, review, and stay accountable for. Not vibe-coding, not autopilot.
I ship what I design. Most recently: the company website for a US-based team (Svelte + Convex), and AcadX — a school & college management suite I design and build with TanStack Start + Convex — plus 10+ smaller projects along the way.
