I am a Ph.D. student in Software Engineering and Intelligent Systems at the Department of ECE, Faculty of Engineering, University of Alberta, Canada. I am a member of the Analytics of Software, GAmes And Repository Data (ASGAARD) lab under the supervision of Dr. Cor-Paul Bezemer. I was working as a software engineering academic faculty for the last couple of years, where I have engaged in teaching software engineering courses and conducting cutting-edge research. I have several publications in software engineering conferences and journals. I have four years of academic experience alongside industry experience to make my software engineering research perfect. I love to be involved in several voluntary activities. I was a Graduate Student Association (GSA) councilor at the University of Alberta (from 2021 to 2023). I was the Counselor of the IEEE Computer Society Dhaka University Student Branch Chapter (from 2019 to 2020).
