What I'm looking for

I'm seeking roles in systems and functional safety, tendering and cost engineering, technical product and data, or infrastructure and PPP advisory. I'm fully set up for remote work from Lebanon.

At PwC Middle East, I support government and semi-government clients across the GCC with commercial due diligence, PPP advisory, tendering and feasibility studies. I develop business cases and cost benchmarks, and contribute to strategies for transport, rail and urban development assets.

I write ITT and RFP documents, support bid evaluations and prepare client deliverables in Arabic and English. I also present findings to client stakeholders and manage day-to-day workstreams using Excel trackers and Power BI.

At Fortescue Zero, I owned a battery subsystem for heavy industrial electrified machinery, from requirements through design integration and validation. I authored functional safety analyses and requirements to ISO 19014 and ISO 13849, and contributed to BMS software development and testing.

At ALTEN UK’s Innovation Lab, I worked on machine-learning projects involving contrail modelling and detection of barely visible impact damage in carbon-fibre composites; I co-authored publications on both. I hold an MSc in Aerospace Engineering with Industry from the University of Leicester and work remotely from Lebanon.
