About Me

I am a third-year PhD student in Computer Science at The University of Utah and a Graduate Research Assistant in the FuTURES³ Lab, advised by Dr. Stefan Nagy. My primary research focus is automated translation validation, specifically in language-to-language code translation. My work has studied the practical challenges faced by current transcompilation tools when translating code across languages and has led to the discovery of over 80 confirmed bugs in widely used transcompilers. I occasionally write blog posts and CTF write-ups on systems and security topics. I also contribute to open-source software projects, including C2Rust, Node.js, and LLVM (selected activities).

I completed my MSc in Computer Science in 2025 at the University of Utah. Prior to that, I served as a Lecturer from 2019 to 2023 at the Department of Computer Science, Southeast University, and am currently on a study leave. Earlier, I earned my BSc Engg. degree in 2019 from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology (BUET).
