All notesরাফিকে শুরু থেকেই extraordinary হিসেবেই চিনেছি আমি। একটা ছেলে, যে কিনা সবকিছুকে অন্যভাবে দেখে, অন্যভাবে চিন্তা করে। আর যেটা আমার কাছে সবচেয়ে বেশি ভালো লাগে, তা হলো তার ব্যক্তিত্ব। সে সবাইকে সম্মান করতে জানে।
Rafe is a standout engineer who deeply cares about fundamentals and clean architecture. He is dependable, takes full ownership, and consistently raises the bar for the team. Simply a great engineer and a solid teammate.
Rafe is a brilliant and creative guy I've known since our diploma days. He's hardworking, reliable, and always gives his best. As a friend, he's very helpful and supportive, though a little "BITLA" sometimes 😄. Glad to have shared so many great memories with him!
