What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and strengthen risk-based process safety, asset integrity, and operational excellence programs in major hazard manufacturing environments.

At QAPCO, I drive risk-based process safety in chlorine production, leading HAZOP, LOPA, SIL, FMEA, Management of Change, PSSR, and audit stewardship activities.

Across Engro Polymer & Chemicals, Midas Safety, and QAPCO, I’ve built and governed process safety systems for petrochemical, chemical, utility, and major hazard facilities. I bring 16+ years of operations and process safety experience, including API-754 KPI improvement, safety-case support, incident investigations, operational discipline, and Industry 4.0 digitalization initiatives.
