What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values innovation and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

I am a dynamic and results-driven Systems Engineer with extensive experience in pre-sales, technical consultancy, and solution implementation. My expertise lies in designing and presenting innovative technical solutions, managing pre-sales activities, and delivering exceptional client experiences. I have a strong background in fraud prevention, risk management, network security, and IT infrastructure, complemented by my strong communication and project management skills.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led technical pre-sales activities, engaging in Proof of Concept (POC) projects that align customer requirements with product capabilities. My role as a Senior Technical Pre-Sales Lead at NetGuardians has allowed me to partner with sales teams to address technical queries, optimize solutions, and provide recommendations on securing customer environments using advanced security protocols. I have contributed to securing over $6 million in new business across key accounts in Africa, demonstrating my ability to drive results and foster strong client relationships.
