What I'm looking for

I seek academic roles combining research and leadership where I can advance networked systems research, mentor students, and contribute to curriculum and program development.

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Engineering (Software) at the University of Tehran with a strong academic record and advanced research in traffic engineering and MPLS networks.

As a long-serving faculty member at Islamic Azad University, I have held multiple leadership roles including Head of Computer & Electronics Engineering and several deputy positions in education and research, demonstrating sustained administrative and academic responsibility.

My research focuses on resource management, routing, and QoS-enabled networks, with multiple peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations on OLP algorithms, LSP flow optimization, and fault-tolerant distributed systems.

I combine teaching across multiple university branches with committee and procurement experience, and I am recognized for academic excellence, including a Letter of Appreciation as Distinguished Professor in District 12.
