Profile
About me
A software-and-research profile spanning language engineering, distributed systems and systems analysis.
I am Kawan Farhadibaneh, a software engineer and researcher based in Tehran, Iran. My work combines program analysis, compiler construction, domain-specific language (DSL) design, blockchain systems, and reverse engineering. I care about tools that make complex systems easier to inspect, reason about, secure, and evolve.
My M.Sc. research at the University of Tabriz produced an IoT data marketplace based on blockchain and proxy re-encryption, with on-chain access rules and an immutable audit trail. As a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Engineering (Software and Algorithms) at Iran University of Science and Technology, I research a polyglot intelligent framework for developing DSLs, including grammar generation, parser tooling, and cross-language analysis.
Professionally, I have worked on Laravel backend systems and on reverse engineering industrial-control software, including internal decompiler tooling and analysis of C, Python, JVM, x86_64 and ARM-based systems.

Professional work
Experience
Programmer · Reverse Engineer
Reverse-engineering industrial control systems and developing internal decompiler tooling. Work includes C/Python/JVM-based tooling, x86_64 and ARM binaries, and analysis of unsafe control-flow patterns to improve safety and maintainability.
Backend Developer
Built and maintained Laravel REST APIs, managed MySQL schemas and migrations, optimized queries, handled API contract versioning and collaborated with frontend teams through specifications and code review.
Selected work
Projects & research
Polyglot DSL Framework
An ongoing framework for engineering domain-specific languages so domain experts can specify DSLs and generate grammars, parsers and tooling for multiple target languages, using ANTLR4 and custom grammar-composition strategies.
Decompiler / Reverse-Engineering Tooling
Internal tooling that lifts compiled control-system binaries toward readable representations, performs semantic checks for unsafe control flow, and supports engineers auditing and evolving legacy systems.
IoT Data Marketplace
A blockchain-based marketplace for trading IoT sensor data, integrating proxy re-encryption, on-chain access rules and an immutable audit trail for data usage and permissions.
Topic-Oriented Social Network
A full-stack social network prototype organized around topics, built with a PHP/Laravel backend, MySQL database and Android client.
