Portfolio Building

Hook — Resume নয়, Proof

‘5 years experience in ML’ লিখলে কিছু হয় না। Portfolio = এমন evidence যা recruiter/client ২ মিনিটে check করে hire decision নিতে পারে।

Portfolio এর ৪ স্তম্ভ

GitHub — clean repo, README, demo, test।
Personal site — case study + about + contact।
Writing — blog/Twitter (public thinking)।
Live demo — Hugging Face Space, Vercel, Streamlit।

GitHub Profile

Pinned repo ৬টা — quality > quantity।
প্রতিটা repo: README with goal + result + GIF + run instruction।
License (MIT/Apache) — সবসময় add।
Profile README — short bio + top projects + contact।
Contribution graph green রাখো (consistent activity)।
‘ml-tutorial-99’ কোনো নাম দিবে না — descriptive slug।

Killer README Template

README.md

# Project Name
One-line tagline · [Live demo](url) · [Blog post](url)

![demo](demo.gif)

## Problem
What pain does this solve? (1-2 sentence)

## Result
- 87% F1 on benchmark X (prev SOTA 84%)
- 30ms p95 inference, runs on CPU

## How it works
Short diagram + 3-4 bullet pipeline

## Quickstart
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

## Tech
Python · PyTorch · FastAPI · Docker

Case Study (Site এ)

structure

1. Hero — name + outcome (numbers!)
2. Problem & context
3. Approach — alternatives considered
4. Implementation highlights (with diagram)
5. Results — metric + screenshot
6. What I'd do differently
7. Tech stack + links (code, demo, blog)

Recruiter portfolio এ ৩০ second spend করে — উপরে বড় outcome, নিচে depth। Mobile responsive must।

Personal Site Stack

Simple: Notion (notion.so) → super.so → custom domain।
No-code: Framer / Carrd।
Dev: Next.js + Tailwind + Vercel।
Domain: yourname.com / yourname.dev।
SEO basics: meta tag, og:image, sitemap।
Loading fast > fancy animation।

Writing — Public Thinking

‘Learn in public’ — যা শিখো লিখে রাখো।
Format: 1 problem → 1 lesson → code snippet।
Platform: own blog (SEO) + dev.to/Medium (reach) + Twitter (network)।
Consistency > virality — সপ্তাহে ১টা post।
Twitter thread + LinkedIn post + blog — same content, ৩ format।

Live Demo Hosting

Hugging Face Spaces — free GPU, Gradio/Streamlit।
Vercel / Netlify — Next.js + edge API।
Fly.io / Railway — FastAPI + Postgres।
Modal / Replicate — GPU inference।
‘Sleeping demo’ এর চেয়ে recorded Loom ভালো।

Final Audit Checklist

Site mobile এ ঠিকঠাক?
প্রতিটা project এ outcome number আছে?
Contact + resume + GitHub link visible?
Demo link ১ক্লিকে চলে?
Bio এ niche + offer clearly বলা?
শেষ post/commit ৩০ দিনের মধ্যে?

Summary

এক নজরে

Portfolio = GitHub + Site + Writing + Live demo। Outcome number + clean README + mobile site = recruiter conversion। Consistent ship + public learning = compounding advantage।
