What I'm looking for

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

I am a dedicated Data Engineer with extensive experience in software development and data management. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, followed by a Master's in Project Management. Over the years, I have honed my skills in developing scalable data pipelines and implementing efficient data storage solutions, ensuring data quality and integrity throughout the lifecycle.

In my current role at Data Analytics B.V. in the Netherlands, I design and implement data systems that handle large volumes of data while collaborating closely with business stakeholders to meet their data needs. My previous experience as a Team Lead at FPSC Pakistan allowed me to lead cross-functional teams, manage complex projects, and deliver high-quality software solutions. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive insights and improve decision-making.
