What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead grid reliability and protection projects, work with SCADA/automation teams, and drive operational improvements in a safety-focused, standards-driven utility environment.

I am an electrical engineer with over six years of experience in utility operations, power system protection, and grid infrastructure management, primarily with Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO). I have led teams of 30+ technical personnel, overseen HV/LV network operations and substation maintenance, and delivered projects in load forecasting, outage restoration, and protection coordination using tools such as PSS®E, ETAP, MATLAB/Simulink, and AutoCAD Electrical.

I have hands-on experience in SCADA/RTU/PLC systems, relay testing and commissioning, and project execution from conceptual design through regulatory submission. My achievements include rapid emergency feeder restoration, conductor and transformer capacity upgrades, and delivering a compliant 132kV grid station design package while ensuring adherence to IEC/IEEE/NTDC standards.
