Hi, I'm Shad Aydid
I build secure, production-ready web applications with React, Next.js and Node.js — backed by an MSc in Cybersecurity.
About Me
Get to know me
Full Stack Developer & Cybersecurity MSc
I'm a web developer based in Slough, UK, with an MSc in Cybersecurity & Forensic Information Technology from the University of Portsmouth and a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering — where I graduated with top honours, earning 1st-place awards presented by the Vice Chancellor and the General Officer Commanding, Bangladesh Army.
As a Web Developer at CLS UK Services, I build the company's production web apps with Next.js — including an airport Meet & Assist booking platform with its own admin panel. Outside work, I build end-to-end applications with React and Next.js on the frontend and Node.js, Express and PostgreSQL on the backend. My cybersecurity background means I design systems with security built in from the ground up, not bolted on at the end. I'm now looking for a full stack role where I can ship real products and keep growing fast.
