By 2014, Firoozi had earned her doctorate and immediately began a postdoctoral fellowship at the same university. Her postdoctoral work laid the foundation for groundbreaking research into the dynamics of multiphase flow — the interactions between gas, liquid, and solid phases — a subject crucial for efficient energy extraction. Since 2017, she has served as a senior researcher at the University of Queensland while collaborating with various industrial partners in Australia’s oil and gas sector.
