About me

Hi, I’m Sabid.

Software Engineer · Applied ML & Computer Vision

I build web applications and research tools, with experience in computer vision, model integration, and self-hosted infrastructure.

I’m a Computer Science graduate from BRAC University. Outside my projects, I support STEM education through Brahmanbaria Science Club.

My story

Building from problems I know firsthand.

My projects often grow out of needs I encounter firsthand. Living with other students meant keeping track of shared meals, groceries, and bills, so I built Messio to make those routines easier to manage. It continues to evolve through feedback from the people who use it.

During my undergraduate research on cervical cancer, I worked on a Pap-smear image dataset and developed a portal for specialist doctors to annotate images independently. I hosted the annotation workflow on my Kubernetes homelab, taking responsibility for both the application and the infrastructure behind it. That portal later evolved into VeraLabel. Our team’s deep learning research led to PapLens, an application I built so people can run inference with our cervical-cytology deep learning models and inspect the resulting attention maps.

Across these projects, I’ve built interfaces, APIs, data workflows, and the infrastructure that supports them. My computer-vision research adds experience with datasets, model evaluation, and integrating model outputs into usable software.

How I work

Practical tools. Clear responsibilities.

  • Start with the workflow

    The annotation portal began with a practical research need. I like understanding who will use a tool and what they need to accomplish before deciding how to build it.

  • Keep the code understandable

    I prefer small, reusable components and clear boundaries between data, application logic, and presentation. Shared behavior should have a clear home in the codebase.

  • Run what I build

    I work primarily in Linux and maintain a Kubernetes homelab for experimentation and self-hosting. Running the thesis annotation workflow there gave me practical experience maintaining the systems our research depended on.

Community and volunteering

Through Brahmanbaria Science Club, I help bring STEM activities to high-school students and coordinate the volunteers and local partnerships that make those activities possible.

  1. August 2023 – Present

    Brahmanbaria Science Club

    Vice President

    • Coordinate club activities promoting STEM education among high-school students across Brahmanbaria.
    • Organize workshops, science fairs, and community outreach programs that encourage interest in research and innovation.
    • Work with local institutions and guide volunteer teams through event planning, execution, and outreach.

What’s next

Open to software engineering roles.

I’m looking for early-career software engineering opportunities where I can build web applications, backend services, and research tools. I’m also interested in roles that draw on my experience with computer vision and model integration.

If that connects with what your team is building, I’d be happy to talk.
