Hira Hasan

Dhaka,

I take software from idea to production.

I’m an indie hacker first. I experiment with code to make art (no vibe coding, I promise), and I build products of my own: PocketSnip, WhatsMonk CRM, BhaloHotels, and WeDokan, a hyperlocal Shopify-style platform.

My professional career spans twelve years, from engineer at IQVIA (then IMS Health) to fractional CTO, cloud expert, tech lead, and sometimes solution architect for AI and cloud systems. I’ve worked with local startups like Priyo.com and venture-backed teams such as Shohoz (backed by Golden Gate Ventures and Partech) and Raena (backed by Alpha Wave Global), and I designed and architected the platform behind Sportinerd, a sports startup.

These days I’m moving from writing syntax to AI-native engineering and cloud systems, in my own work and with the teams I lead. I explain what I learn to 35,000 people on YouTube, and what I post across social platforms gets 4 million views a year, from tech to edtech to travel. I hold opinions about building companies, and travel whenever the work allows.

Now

Updated Nov 2026

Leading AI and cloud-native solutions for Innospace and Lecture Publications, served through Brritto, the largest vetted MCQ and CQ platform. I work with a team of 30+ engineers, and what we build serves 2,000+ internal users and over a million external ones, from students to business operations.
