01 About me
Hi there, it's me.
I'm Saiful, Amir to friends back home: a technical founder from Dinajpur who is equally at home in a server rack, a codebase and an email template.
I founded Amir Technologies, a local IT firm in Chirirbandar that keeps schools, colleges and institutes running on technology, and Hostamir, a web hosting company. At Projukti Team Digital Agency I work as a DevOps / IT systems engineer: Linux servers, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, MikroTik networking and Cloudflare, plus custom Zoho CRM setups for our EdTech work.
My freelance career started on Elance in 2012 and continues on Upwork, where I'm Top Rated with 250+ projects, many of them responsive email templates and Mailchimp or Klaviyo automations. I've been listed in Mailchimp's Experts Directory as a template design specialist since 2016.
I studied Multimedia & Creative Technology at Daffodil International University, where I was part of Creative Park and the DIU Photographic Society, and did an MBA at HSTU. Off the clock: photography, making reels, movies and playing with CSS.

Live demo of the template styles I build. Switch the width and theme: the layout stacks for mobile and the colours adapt for dark mode, the same way my client templates do.
Saiful knows what he's doing, and works to solve problems if they occur. I'd happily work with him again for Mailchimp templates.
