Electrical engineer focused on power systems, telecom networks, and industrial automation.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Electrical Engineer with hands-on experience across power systems, telecom network operations, and industrial automation. I adapt fast to delivering innovative, reliable, and scalable engineering solutions that create measurable value.
In my recent roles, I’ve strengthened operational performance and manufacturing quality. As Executive – SME NOC at Wateen Telecom, I maintained 99% system uptime and reduced downtime by 15% by troubleshooting critical incidents and coordinating escalations with field teams. At Copper Gat, I conduct quality inspection and testing of copper conductors and cables, ensuring compliance with IEC and ASTM standards while driving down rejection rates through production collaboration.
My internship work reinforced my engineering foundation and practical safety mindset. At CAA, I assisted with testing and maintenance of runway lighting control systems and improved vendor documentation and compliance record-keeping; at Nishat Power Plant, I supported performance monitoring of turbine and electrical automation systems and observed PLC-controlled machinery to deepen my industrial automation skills.
