Secure Neurobot
A brain-controlled robotics project that turns a small set of brain signals into actions such as OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP. An independent safety system checks every command before the robot is allowed to move.
I’m Hajira Sultana, and I also go by Huda. I’m an AI and cybersecurity engineer, researcher, and builder based in Chicago. I build systems that combine software and hardware. My experience includes creating AI tools, automating workflows, securing software, and building projects with sensors, microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi, and connected devices.
I’m interested in applying AI and security to robotics, assistive technology, and devices that interact with the real world. My broader interests include safe and responsible AI, brain–computer interfaces, open source, and entrepreneurship. I hold a master’s degree in Cybersecurity from Lewis University and a bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering.
Beyond engineering, I enjoy building products, leading projects, competing in hackathons, speaking, and growing technology communities. I’m open to opportunities in software, AI, cybersecurity, electronics, and robotics, as well as research labs and fellowships where I can work across both software and hardware.
I’m interested in building AI-powered systems that remain safe and reliable when they interact with the physical world. I want to study how robots and connected devices can make dependable decisions when sensor data is noisy, incomplete, or manipulated. This work brings together my experience in AI and cybersecurity with my background in electronics and my growing interest in robotics.

A system that detects suspicious emails as they arrive and helps people understand the warning signs. It combines automatic detection with simple safety guidance to protect users from changing phishing attacks.
Read paper ↗A study of the Salt Typhoon attack on major U.S. telecommunications providers. The research identifies weaknesses in critical infrastructure and proposes ways to strengthen national telecommunications security.
Read paper ↗Work focused on giving AI systems only the access they need, monitoring the actions they take, and testing what happens when they make mistakes. The goal is to make AI agents safer for real-world use.
An education venture I started at 18 and later sold to an education technology company at 22. It was my first experience turning an idea into a product, building a team, and growing a company.
Helped grow a student technology community from around 500 to more than 5,000 members while supporting its hardware lab and helping young builders learn electronics through practical prototypes.
Selected work from hackathons, open-source communities, hardware labs, and independent exploration.
A discovery platform that brings thousands of AI agents, tools, and skills into one searchable place. Built to help people find and compare useful AI products without searching across the entire internet.
Visit platform ↗An AI-powered skin analysis tool that studies an uploaded image, helps users understand their skin type, and provides personalized recommendations.
A security layer that controls what AI agents can access and do. Built at the Auth0 × Stripe hackathon, where it received second place.
A healthcare logistics system that tracks medical devices, records their history, and helps teams decide which returned equipment can be safely cleaned, repaired, and used again.
A platform created to help early founders shape an idea, understand the market, and move from planning toward building and launching a real product.
Contributions to Pangolin, LiteLLM, floci, DSACMS, and AI developer tools, including improvements to authentication, secure connections, cloud systems, documentation, and developer experience.
