What I'm looking for

I seek senior localization or LQA roles where I can lead quality initiatives, mentor teams, and improve MT and translation workflows in cross-functional environments.

I am a Senior English–Arabic translator and localization specialist with over 20 years of experience across IT, medical, e-learning, legal, and technical domains. I deliver translation, MT post-editing, linguistic QA, and AI data annotation for global clients.

I have led LQA teams, created style guides, glossaries, and QA scorecards, and mentored reviewers to improve translation quality and consistency. I have supported localization projects for major clients including Uber, Amazon, Oracle, Coursera, Seagate, Xiaomi and others.

My technical proficiency includes Smartling, Trados, and MemoQ, alongside structured QA checklists and localization workflow improvements that increased efficiency. I also have certifications in Smartling, ISO quality management, and security awareness training.

I hold a B.A. in Languages & Translation and postgraduate diplomas in Translation & Interpretation and Environmental Sciences, and I seek opportunities where I can apply my LQA, MTPE, and localization leadership to enhance multilingual product quality.
