About

👋 I’m Jahidul Islam (জাহিদুল ইসলাম) — but most people online know me as XahidEx. I like simplifying complex ideas, whether that’s in digital marketing, SEO, or explaining tech to friends over coffee.

I’m currently the Marketing Manager at Somerset Clinic in Dubai, where I bridge the gap between technical development and strategic marketing.

How I work

I work end-to-end, from architecture and development to SEO, analytics, and distribution. AI tools speed up execution, but system design and decisions remain mine.

Love lake, Dubai - Jan '26

I grew up in Feni, Bangladesh 🇧🇩, where I worked on local companies and projects before moving abroad. In 2023, I relocated to Dubai, and it’s been an exciting journey blending multicultural insight with global marketing strategy.

I believe modern marketing isn’t about shouting louder, it’s about connecting the right data with the right story. For me, success means creating systems that make growth simple, measurable, and sustainable.

Outside of work, photography is one of my hobbies. I shoot exclusively with my iPhone, but I’m a fan of Fujifilm and Leica cameras for their design and character. I’m also into combat sports, especially Boxing and MMA, and I never miss a UFC event. Add in chess (where I pretend to be better than I really am), and you’ll get a good picture of my off-hours.

Right now, I’m tinkering with AI agents and building experimental web products.

If you’re into Next.js, Astro, SEO, photography, films, history, travel, or interesting conversations, I’m in. And if you’re in Dubai, we can even meet up (assuming our calendars ever stop fighting). You can also check out my blog or grab my CV if you’re curious about my work.
