Hi. I’m Ahmed.
I build the bits

THE WORK BEHIND THE WORK

Different roles. Useful connections.

Integration, websites, maps and operations. Open a role for its scope; the résumé has the full version.

Data that has to agree across systems.

I supported Azure-to-Oracle transfers for financial-planning systems, using Python, SQL, Azure Functions and APIs. The work also involved investigating inconsistent records and application errors.
