What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead and teach practical technology work that connects software engineering, data, digital transformation, sustainability, and real-world industry collaboration.

I’ve built national-scale digital services through Cyberaan, including Afghanistan’s government web platform, a Kabul Municipality project-management system, and an UNDP-funded adaptive learning platform deployed across 183 municipalities.

I combine nearly 20 years in technology and academia, teaching software engineering, big data, and digital transformation while contributing to climate-modeling software at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research.
