What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that offers growth opportunities and allows me to leverage my extensive IT experience.

I am a dynamic and self-driven Information Technology expert with over 17 years of diverse experience across multinational and local organizations. My career has been marked by a proven track record in aligning technology with business objectives, particularly in sectors such as RMG, ISP, Telecom, and manufacturing. I pride myself on my strong leadership skills, which enable me to manage teams effectively, deliver under pressure, and drive multiple projects to success.

Currently, I serve as the Head of Information Technology at Metrocem Group, where I oversee the IT operations for all seven units. My role involves developing a web-based custom ERP software and an Android mobile application, providing technical support across departments, and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation. I am passionate about identifying solutions that enhance organizational performance and am committed to fostering a culture of continuous improvement within my teams.
