Hi, I'm

Yeasir Arafat

|

I build enterprise financial software at IFIC Bank PLC and publish research on privacy-preserving AI. My work connects customer onboarding, identity verification, core banking, and reliable data workflows, alongside research in privacy-preserving healthcare AI.

What I do

A practical mix of product, AI, and secure systems

I like projects where interfaces, data, models, and trust boundaries all have to work together.

Next.js, .NET, APIs

Product engineering

I design clear interfaces, build reliable backends, and keep the user workflow close to the code decisions.

PyTorch, CV, NLP

Applied AI systems

I prototype models, evaluate tradeoffs, and connect machine learning work to software that people can actually use.

Auth, encryption, blockchain

Security and trust

I care about data integrity, privacy, and operational constraints, especially in finance and healthcare contexts.

Mentorship, contests, teams

Teaching and leadership

I have led student engineering work, supported university courses, and organized community learning experiences.

Selected work

Case studies with real technical weight

A few projects that show how I connect product workflows, research ideas, and implementation details.

Process

How I move from idea to usable system

The workflow is intentionally simple: understand the problem, shape the system, build the core, then harden the handoff.

01

Frame the problem

Clarify users, constraints, risks, and what success should look like before choosing the stack.

02

Shape the system

Map the data flow, core screens, API boundaries, model behavior, and security assumptions.

03

Build the usable core

Implement the smallest complete workflow with polished interactions and clear failure states.

04

Harden and explain

Tighten performance, accessibility, documentation, and handoff notes so the work can keep moving.

Current focus

Current focus

I am intentionally building depth across enterprise engineering, applied AI, and trustworthy systems.

  • Building branch-led and self-led onboarding, retry-aware core banking integrations, and Oracle migration tooling at IFIC Bank PLC.
  • Sharpening AI engineering patterns for model-backed products.
  • Exploring trustworthy AI for healthcare and low-resource language systems.
