Applied Scientist Intern Amazon

I'm on the job market, looking for industry Research Scientist position! Feel free to connect with me via email (mislam22[at] ncsu [dot] edu). ⬇️RESUME

I am a 5th year Ph.D. Student in the Computer Science Department at North Carolina State University, working with Dr. Min Chi as a Graduate Research Assistant at Center for Educational Informatics. I have worked at Amazon as an Applied Scientist Intern in Summer 2025. In Summer 2024, I have worked at Under Armour as a Research Scientist Intern. Before joining the PhD program at NC State, I have worked as a Software Engineer at Marginedge and a Lecturer in the Computer Science and Engineering department at United International University. My research interest includes Reinforcement Learning, Data Mining, Machine Learning, Representation Learning, Generative AI and their approach towards solving various problems. I aim to develop algorithms that can better model sequential decision-making processes in complex human-centric environments, leveraging Reinforcement Learning and Apprenticeship Learning.

I obtained my Master's degree in Computer Science from North Carolina State University in July, 2024 and Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology in April, 2019. I have a great passion for research and development. I love speaking in front of people. The more I talk and discuss, the more I found myself interacted, which in turn impels me to continue knowing and sharing more.

To learn more, see my resume or contact me with any questions.
