Mohammad Ashraful Islam
Founder & CEO, Devs Core
Ashraf is a full-stack engineer who still reads the pull requests. He founded Devs Core in Dhaka and now runs it as a US company, and he works across the same stack the team does — React and TypeScript, Django and Python, Flutter, Kotlin.
His academic background is in artificial intelligence, and he has spent five years building production software — the kind with real users, real uptime and real consequences when it breaks.
He led the builds most of this site points at: the member platform that took an institution off its office inbox, the factory accounting system that replaced a load-bearing spreadsheet, and both of the AI products Devs Core runs itself. He writes here about building and running AI agents that act inside ERP, CRM and helpdesk systems, under scoped permissions with a person approving every write.
