I'm a — Software Engineer
About
Hi, I’m Noshin Ulfat — a software engineer with a strong focus on front-end web development. Currently, I work as a software development engineer
at IQVIA, a leading global provider of information, services and technology for the healthcare industry. At IQVIA,
I develop responsive and intuitive web applications using Angular and Typescript that support better user experience.
My interests go beyond software engineering — I’m deeply passionate about natural language processing (NLP). I'm particularly interested in fine-tuning
large language models and find meaningful, ethical applications for them in domains like medicine and law. I strongly believe in building responsible
AI systems, with fairness, transparency, and human values at their core. Alongside my full-time role, I regularly contribute to research projects that
align with these interests. I’ve collaborated multiple times with Dr. Joanna C. S. Santos
from the University of Notre Dame. I have graduated from Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering from
the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) in May, 2023, and during my final year,
I completed my thesis under the supervision of Dr. M. Sohel Rahman.
Outside of work and research, I'm a person who strictly maintains well-organized environments — it keeps me grounded and focused. I love reading,
and I enjoy writing short stories as a creative outlet. I also draw in my free time and find peace in every brushstroke. If you’re curious, feel free
to explore some of my artwork on the Arts page.
