What I'm looking for

I'm looking to drive secure, resilient IT operations, infrastructure modernization, endpoint management, and technology initiatives aligned with business goals.

At Wadi Degla Investments (K) Limited, I direct cross-departmental IT operations, supporting enterprise availability, data security, and user services.

I administer Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, network services, Microsoft Intune, and Configuration Manager while integrating Suprema and ZKTeco biometric and card-based access-control systems. I also automate reporting and streamline device provisioning to improve operational efficiency.

Previously at Flamingo Horticulture, I resolved user, system, and network issues remotely and in person, managed Windows, Linux, and server environments, and strengthened backup and preventive-maintenance processes.

I combine hands-on infrastructure work with team mentorship, IT governance, KPI reporting, and technology planning aligned to business objectives.
