Computer Science Educator & Open Source Researcher
Specializing in High Performance Computing (HPC), IoT Healthcare Architectures, Applied Deep Learning, and Software Engineering. Dedicated to outcome-based pedagogy, curriculum design, and guiding student developer communities from fundamentals to open-source contributions.
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at NSHM Knowledge Campus, Durgapur. My academic journey combines a rigorous foundation in Computer Science with a passion for modern software engineering, data analytics, and high-performance execution frameworks.
Beyond the classroom, I contribute actively to institutional governance (IQAC Core Committee Member, NAAC Criteria 2 Coordinator) and lead student innovation initiatives such as CodeNEST and the Open Source Student Developers Club.
