Azraf Al Monzim is a backend & platform engineer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, with a focus on Go services and the Postgres/Redis infrastructure underneath them. He has been working professionally since August 2023, with stints at SoftNursery (SaaS back-end work in Go and Node.js) and now at Edusoft Consultants Ltd, where he owns the platform behind United International University's section-selection portal and exam-routine system — handling peak registration windows for the university's full student body.

His side work centres on Spendo AI, an AI-powered personal-finance platform that won the IC6 UIHP 2025 championship and is currently in beta, and on DumpStation, an open-source PostgreSQL backup manager with multi-cloud storage support.
