QatarWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced System and Network Administrator with 5+ years managing enterprise networks, Windows/Linux servers, Hyper-V/VMware virtualization, firewalls (Fortinet/Cisco/MikroTik), and hybrid cloud environments (Azure & AWS). I focus on reliable, secure, and highly available infrastructure to support multi-branch operations.
My hands-on achievements include implementing Veeam Backup & Replication to ensure 99.9% uptime, managing Microsoft 365 services (Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, Intune), and deploying virtualization and network solutions that improved connectivity and resilience across offices. I have also led IT procurement, budgeting, vendor relationships, and project coordination for branch rollouts.
I earn certifications including AZ305, AZ104, AWS SAA, MCSA, and CCNA, and I am available immediately in Doha with a transferable visa and valid QID. I bring a pragmatic, security-first approach and enjoy mentoring teams and documenting SOPs to keep systems compliant and supportable.
