Niladri Das

About

Dr. Niladri Das has been working as an assistant professor in the Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering Department, IIEST, Shibpur, since September 2023. He has completed his Ph.D. degree in the area of Information Theory and Coding from the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, IIT Guwahati, Guwahati. His research interests include blockchain, network coding, coded caching, networks, graph theory, and signal processing.

Before his PhD, he obtained his M.Tech in Signal Processing from the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, IIT Guwahati, Guwahati. Before that, he did his B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering from the College of Engineering and Management, Kolaghat (affiliated with erstwhile West Bengal University of Technology).

After his PhD, he worked as an SERB National Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Electrical Communication Engineering Department of IISc Bangalore.

After his post-doc, he worked as an Assistant professor in the School of Electronics Engineering of VIT Vellore, Vellore campus, and subsequently as an Assistant Professor in the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department of BITS Pilani Hyderabad Campus.

He has also worked in Cognizant Technology Solutions as an Associate Engineer.
