About Me

I'm a Senior Data Engineer at G-Star Raw with over years of experience in data engineering, ML-Ops, and analytics. I specialize in building scalable data systems, fraud detection, and multimedia forensics solutions that drive business value.

My expertise spans across data engineering platforms, machine learning operations, and infrastructure design. I've architected and maintained data warehouses, ML platforms, and orchestration systems at companies like Pathao Limited and 10MinuteSchool.

I hold a BS in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from BUET with a focus on communication and signal processing. My research background includes camera model identification for digital forensics and lung tumor segmentation using deep learning techniques.

I'm passionate about mentoring teams and contributing to innovative projects that leverage data for strategic insights. When not working, I enjoy exploring emerging technologies in data science and contributing to the research community.
