Biography

Academic Background & Research Philosophy

I received my Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (Field and Wave) from the University of Tehran in September 2024 (graduated September 21, 2024). Prior to that, I earned my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Tehran (September 22, 2017 – September 22, 2021) with the National Brilliant Talent Quota (exempted from the national M.Sc. entrance exam based on top undergraduate ranking). Currently, I am fulfilling my mandatory national military service duty (November 22, 2025 – March 21, 2027), while actively conducting research on the fundamentals of DevSecOps, enterprise security architecture, and regulatory governance frameworks including ISO/IEC 27001, NIST SP 800-53 / CSF, SABSA, and TOGAF.

I am passionate about learning new technologies and concepts, especially those that involve complex mathematics. I have a strong foundation in mathematics, which allows me to understand and apply these technologies in creative and innovative ways. My research spans MIMO radar sensory arrays, convex and non-convex optimization, numerical methods (Gradient Descent), target tracking (Kalman filtering), spatial noise clustering (DBSCAN), machine learning, and enterprise security & DevSecOps architectures.

One of the most important tasks of any researcher is to apply available tools and methods in our enriched engineering literature to address today's world's issues in different areas from transportation (Autonomous Vehicles, radar-based traffic violation detection) to Social Media Management (including recommender systems) and absolutely to Medical areas where one can restore disabled's will and power to live normally.

I believe that most problems can be solved if we are willing to look at them from a different angle. I find it a great pleasure to use my mathematical skills to solve complex problems, especially those that involve modeling high-dimensional problems with matrix notations and taking advantage of convex and non-convex optimization to find optimal solutions. I am confident that my skills and interests make me a valuable asset to any team. I believe in hard deep work which gives me the power to learn new things fast. I am also a team player and willing to help others.
