Questions people actually ask.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul is a Bangladeshi Muslim software engineer, author, researcher, educator, and entrepreneur. He earned his Bachelor of Science (Honors) in Fisheries from Bangladesh Maritime University and works as a Software Engineer at Ternary Solutions, Inc. He is the founder of S Technologies, Ulkaa, and Shikkha Web, and the author of Aspect Physics, Aspect ICT, and MaritimeKnowledge.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul is also known as Ashraful Alam Shemul, as Shemul, and online by the handle AAShemul, which he uses on GitHub, LinkedIn, X, and Facebook.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul is Bangladeshi and works from Dhaka, Bangladesh. He studied at Bangladesh Maritime University, runs his three ventures from Bangladesh, and works on a hybrid basis for Ternary Solutions, Inc., a US-based information technology company operating in Bangladesh. He speaks Bengali and English, and works with teams and clients internationally.

Two things that meet in the middle. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul ships production software — full-stack web applications in Next.js, React, Django, and Express.js — and he researches the sea, studying plankton ecology, oceanography, and the early-life ecology of aquatic organisms. Machine learning is the thread that runs through both: he builds deep-learning models for industry and applies them to satellite-derived marine data for research.

Yes. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul is a software engineer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He has been building and shipping software since founding S Technologies in August 2013, and has worked as a full-time Software Engineer at Ternary Solutions, Inc. since July 2025, where he builds deep-learning models and full-stack web applications.

Full-stack web development and applied machine learning. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul works across the whole stack rather than one half of it: Next.js, React, Motion, and TailwindCSS on the frontend; Express.js, Django, Flask, .NET, and Celery on the backend; PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis for data; PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Keras for models; and AWS, Azure, Vercel, and Docker to ship it.

Yes — Next.js is his primary frontend framework. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul has built production Next.js and React applications including Counterfoil, Do You Work, S Technologies, Shikkha Web, ArtPix, Farnex, Vayhaus, Ternary Solutions, and Ulkaa Campus, many paired with PayloadCMS, Redux, Motion, and TailwindCSS. He also authored WP-Next, an open-source Next.js frontend for WordPress.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul builds APIs and services in Django, Express.js, FastAPI, Flask, and .NET, schedules asynchronous work with Celery, tests with PyTest, and runs them on PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis. His backend work includes the Counterfoil API (a FastAPI, Celery, RabbitMQ, and PostgreSQL microservice architecture), the Do You Work API (FastAPI), and the Ulkaa API (Express.js, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis).

Yes. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul builds cross-platform mobile applications with React Native and Expo, including Turfly, which is published on Google Play.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul works primarily in TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python, with C# and SQL alongside. Frontend: Next.js, React, Motion, Socket.IO, and TailwindCSS. Backend: Express.js, Django, Flask, .NET, Celery, and PyTest. Mobile: React Native and Expo. Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis. Machine learning: PyTorch, TensorFlow, Keras, Pandas, and NumPy. DevOps: AWS, Azure, Vercel, Docker, cPanel, and WHM.

At Ternary Solutions, Inc., Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul built a deep-learning model that detects disease from X-ray images using pretrained networks, and develops deep-learning models for time-series forecasting and analysis. As a Research Assistant at the Hydro-Climate and Ocean Center he applies machine learning to satellite-derived Copernicus Marine datasets. He works in PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Keras across CNN, RNN, Transformer, and Mamba architectures.

Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul built a conversational deep-learning model trained on a fisheries dataset as his undergraduate research in natural language processing, a deep-learning disease-detection model for X-ray images, time-series forecasting models, and AI models that identify and forecast Potential Fishing Zones in the Bay of Bengal from oceanographic and ecological variables.

This is the unusual part of his profile: he is trained in both. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul holds a fisheries degree and engineers machine-learning systems professionally, so he runs spatial and environmental data analysis and modeling in Python, processes satellite-derived Copernicus Marine datasets and NetCDF data, and works with ArcGIS, remote sensing, GIS, and SPSS — applying deep learning to problems most marine scientists approach with classical statistics alone.

Yes, on both sides of it. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul spent more than two years at 10 Minute School writing SEO-friendly academic, non-academic, and product content and optimizing it for search, and he engineers technical SEO into the products he builds — structured data, semantic markup, canonical URLs, sitemaps, and Core Web Vitals. Most specialists have the content half or the technical half; he works in both.

Yes. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul was a Lecturer and Content Developer at Network Publications for five years, a Content Developer at 10 Minute School and at Shikho, and is the author of three published university admission guides: Aspect Physics, Aspect ICT, and MaritimeKnowledge.

Yes — he designs and then builds what he designs, rather than handing a mockup off. Md. Ashraful Alam Shemul crafts interfaces with TailwindCSS and Motion, treating interaction and animation as part of engineering. His interface work spans this site, Counterfoil, ArtPix, Vayhaus, and Farnex, from data-dense dashboards to fully interactive desktop and orrery experiences.
