Nidal Siddique Oritro
Senior Engineering Manager · Scalable systems & team leadership
Software engineering leader with ~15 years building highly scalable, maintainable systems that serve millions of customers. Currently leading engineering at Cheq, A 365 Retail Market platform — taking small to medium-size teams from project inception to complete delivery. I thrive on challenges and projects that give me the opportunity to learn new things.
My current focus is AI engineering — LLM-powered products, RAG pipelines, MCP-driven internal tools, supervised model training, and fine-tuning detection and language models for domain-specific use. I have been building with neural networks since my fleet-optimization days, and I write and speak on practical, spec-driven AI workflows.
Outside the day job, I run a mentorship program for early-career engineers and founded the Rajshahi Professionals Network.
On a personal level, I love DIY projects — I have a 3D printer and I'm building out my own workshop.
