What I'm looking for

I seek a customer‑centric pre‑sales role where I can run discovery, shape demos/PoCs, partner with AEs/CSMs, and grow in security‑focused solutions.

I am a customer‑facing technologist with a B.S. in Cybersecurity who connects business needs to technical solutions, specializing in SMB and mid‑market engagements. I bring direct sales experience—promoted from Sales Agent to Supervisor—alongside IT support and secure operations experience.

My strengths include running discovery, shaping demos and proof‑of‑concepts, handling objections, and answering security and integration questions. I have operated in SLA‑driven secure environments, maintained CRM discipline, authored knowledge‑base documentation, and coordinated technical onboarding and enablement.

I am bilingual (English/Arabic), comfortable collaborating with AEs and CSMs for smooth handoffs, and have built hands‑on projects that demonstrate integration, automation, and secure payment flows—skills I use to translate technical value into measurable ROI for customers.
