Nahid Bin Azhar

Hey, I’m Nahid Bin Azhar aka Mehedi Hasan Nahid–a software engineer turned entrepreneur with a love for solving real-world problems through tech. After spending over 12 years in the software industry, I decided to take everything I’d learned and put it into building something meaningful. That led me to co-found JoulesLabs, where I now work as CTO. We’re focused on building SaaS products people actually enjoy using—right now, that means working closely with Shopify APIs and integrating AI to create smarter, more helpful tools.
I’ve worked with all kinds of tech over the years—Laravel, TypeScript, AdonisJS, Go, Node.js, Docker, Nginx, Kubernetes, Redis, PostgreSQL, MySQL—you name it. These days, I’m especially excited about AI and how things like large language models and RAG systems can be used to build intelligent, context-aware apps.
Open-source is a big part of my journey too. I love learning from the community and giving back by building tools others can use. Fun fact: I’m one of the top PHP open-source contributors in Bangladesh, and that’s something I’m really proud of.
When I’m not deep in code or tech strategy, I enjoy learning new things, mentoring developers, and experimenting in the kitchen—yep, I love to cook! Cooking, much like coding, is all about creativity and a dash of curiosity.
