Beyond the horizon: my career summary

A Mechanical Engineer with expertise in computational modeling, simulation, and multidisciplinary project management. Proven success in Ceramics Matrix Composites and nanomaterials manufacturing, and completing large-scale MEP and civil construction projects. Skilled in programming languages, with strong leadership, data analysis, and communication abilities. Caring about environmental health and safety, and the well-being of the community and climate.

Career Highlights

Academic

I earned the Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, specializing in computational modeling and simulation of Ceramic Matrix Composites. Graduate-level research involved applying Density Functional Theory (DFT) to develop surrogate kinetic models for heterogeneous reactions, analyzing rate-determining steps in the chemical vapor infiltration process, and presenting findings at national conferences. Prior to that, I had earned a Bachelor of Science in Petroleum and Mining Engineering from the Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology in Bangladesh, where I had laid a strong foundation in energy systems, materials, and applied engineering. Throughout both degrees, I balanced intensive technical research with student leadership organization, positioning me to spearhead both academic and industry-driven innovation.

Professional

My professional experience cuts across research, engineering design, and management of mega-size projects. At the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, I worked as a Graduate Research Assistant, where I researched to create high-performance Ceramic Matrix Composites for automobile, aerospace, and nuclear applications. Back in my early professional career in Bangladesh, I was an Executive Engineer with Novelty Infrastructures Limited. As a project management engineering executive, I coordinated multidisciplinary teams in completing turnkey MEP and civil projects on schedule and within budget with strict compliance to OHSAS, ISO, and NFPA standards. I have also worked as a Medical Gas Line Engineer for Apollo Imperial Hospitals Limited, overseeing major system installations, design review, and staff training in compliance with international healthcare standards. These experiences have enhanced my engineering research proficiency, sustainability-driven solutions, and leadership in technical and organizational environments.

Creative

Apart from research and engineering, community service, leadership, and creativity are always factors that have been integral to my life. I was Executive Assistant for the Graduate Student Association, Senator for Government and External Affairs of the Student Government Association, and Chair of the ASME Student Chapter at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. These roles allowed me to orchestrate events, represent varied student voices, and foster teamwork among academic and cultural communities. In my previous role as President of the Student Union in Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology in Bangladesh, I led student programs, debate activities, and cultural events that cemented campus life and debate.

My creative tendencies also stretch into writing, design, and public speaking, where I have been able to integrate technical proficiency with storytelling and activism. Placing first at the UTC Graduate Research Symposium and winning the Inter-Department Debate Championship in CUET are examples of my passion for effective communication and innovative thinking. They highlight how I integrate creativity, leadership, and teamwork into intellectual and professional settings, fostering an integrated approach to engineering and research.
