What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Project Manager or Power BI/Data Platform Support Lead role in the UAE or GCC, where I can lead enterprise service delivery, platform operations, cross-functional teams, and data transformation programs.

At Capgemini, I lead 15+ engineers supporting enterprise Power BI environments for global clients including SLB, Allianz, Wabtec, and Microsoft. I manage tenant governance, Premium capacity, gateways, refresh schedules, CI/CD pipelines, incidents, and SLA delivery.

I've also led PMO and service delivery for data integration and SAS-to-Python migration programs, defining roadmaps, KPIs, scope, and risk controls. Earlier, I built Power BI reporting and Azure Data Factory pipelines integrating D365 Finance & Operations, Azure SQL, and external systems.
