I built software solutions that are being used in the US, Germany, Brazil, Malaysia and Thailand. I have co-founded a healthcare startup in KSA for remote health monitoring for the elderly & chronic patients that was backed by KACST in 2020 and one of our prototypes ranked among top 11 in KAUST Hajj challenge in 2021. I developed a passion for working in startups. Earlier, I worked for a European company from 2013 where I handled all their projects in kSA till 2018 on a remote setting where I was the only employee in KSA almost 80% of the time so I handled all kind of office and project activities (on-site supervision, design work coordination, sourcing suppliers and sub-contractors and negotiating partnership opportunities). Outside the gulf region, I led projects in different fields like charity, agriculture, medical, engineering, environment and in IT projects where custom software development was the primary product and also in projects where software was only 30% of the final product. This gave me the expertise in managing and coordinating projects regardless of the field knowledge. I dealt with suppliers in Dubai, Singapore, China, Japan, England, Finland, Italy, USA and Germany. I also created business plans, cash flow and maintained project budgets reports on medium sized projects. I led projects for the US & German governments adhered to security restrictions, handled difficult personalities and delivered projects successfully on time and on budget. And I supported sales directors to close multi-million project deals by dealing with all technical concerns for the client. I helped the management team to resolve conflicts with the client and strove to build good business connections.
