Profile
Mechanical engineer with ample international experience. As an engineer with Saudi Aramco, I have participated in high profile projects, such as the introduction of upstream surface technologies and the Manifa field development. Throughout my studies, I excelled by obtaining scholarships and awards as a result of my academic performance. My studies and industrial experience in five different countries have taken me to top tier companies and academic institutions such as Saudi Aramco, KAUST, and Boeing. I am seeking full-time employment in product development with LEGO Group.
