Over a decade managing IT infrastructure, networks, and server systems for a university of thousands — from network security and hardware to training the next people who'll run it.
The short version, and the highlights that matter.

I'm Mustafijur Rahman, a System Engineer based in Dhaka with a background that spans electrical engineering, computer science, and hands-on network and systems administration. I currently lead the IT Department at Manarat International University, where I'm responsible for IT support, server management, website management, and network security across the whole institution.
I hold a B.Sc. in Electrical & Electronic Engineering and an M.Sc. in Computer Science & Engineering, and I'm certified across Red Hat systems administration, Cisco networking, and Fortinet network security — a mix that lets me move comfortably between infrastructure, security, and research.
Alongside my IT work, I've published research on traffic-flow prediction, cloud storage, and facial emotion detection, and I regularly run IT-training sessions for staff and students. I'm looking to keep growing in roles that combine infrastructure leadership with technical depth.
Grouped by how I actually use them, not just a wall of logos.
