With over two decades of diverse professional experience, I have developed a strong foundation in the field of computer science and information technology. Since 2003, I have been serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of CSE/IT at Dr. B. C. Roy Engineering College, Durgapur. In this role, my responsibilities include designing and delivering curriculum, conducting research, and mentoring students in their academic and professional pursuits. Prior to my academic tenure, I worked as an Internet Networking Administrator at VSNL, Ultadanga, Kolkata, from 2001 to 2002, where I honed my skills in managing and optimizing network infrastructure. Earlier, at NIIT Ltd., Royed Street, Kolkata, from 2000 to 2001, I served as a Network Administrator and Faculty, contributing to both technical administration and instructional aspects. Additionally, from 1998 to 2000, I worked at Auchtel Products Pvt. Ltd., Kolkata, focusing on system administration and software development. This diverse background has equipped me with a comprehensive skill set that spans academia, network administration, and software development.
