Firstly Namasudra is not a caste and naturally they have no caste profession.
Secondly it is a avarna community.The abusing term was Chandala .Varna Hindus preferred the abusing term.
Thirdly A mythology was reported by the community members .Following that very recently the community has declared the name as "Namassej" or originated from Namas . There community religion is different.The son of the Prophet Harichand tried till 1937 to remove the bashing "sudra" tag but failed .
Fourthly in the British period their profession was agriculture and boatman.
Fifthly they lived in separation from both the Muslims and Varna Hindus.After their introduction in varna-Hindu samaj they were forced to take the "sudra" but the varna-Hindus insisted for more abusing "Chandala" term But the British Govt. forced them to accept it officially.But it must be said some Brahmins signed a Vyabastha earlier than the British.
CONCLUSION : THE QUESTION OF CASTE PROFESSION DOES NOT ARISE.

According to Hindu beliefs why were people born into different castes?
SriKrishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, created the four castes- Kshatriya, Brahman, Vaisia Shudran. These castes are divided based on the qualities of humans and their family profession. No person is born into any particular caste. His /her caste is determined based on his /her character quality and the profession he /she undertakes. The caste system was developed purely for the purpose of organising the society and allotting works to the people. But over the years, the true meaning of caste system vanished and it has created cracks within the society. Caste system was not meant to differentiate but rather organise the society. Why would God want to differentiate people?
