Bridging cutting-edge IoT technology with real-world facility optimization for smarter, sustainable buildings and cities
I am a distinguished technology executive with a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science & Engineering from UP Technical University, India (2004–2008). Over 15+ years, I have established himself as a visionary leader in IoT architecture, smart infrastructure, and digital transformation and facilities management system expert, driving innovation across academia and industry. My career trajectory includes pivotal roles at AlAmmar Municipality, KSA (2009–2013), where I engineered mission-critical infrastructure modernization, and Ejadah Asset Management (2013–2014), where I optimized CAFM systems for large-scale asset portfolios.
Currently serving as Digital Transformation & Systems Officer at the University of Sharjah (2014–Present), I have spearheaded IoT-enabled smart campus initiatives, deploying 200+ LoRaWAN sensors to achieve 25% energy efficiency gains. Concurrently, as Chief Technology Officer of MachinesensIoT LLC (2021–Present), I lead the development of 15+ industrial-grade IoT devices, now deployed across 50+ smart buildings, cementing his reputation as a hands-on technologist with full-stack expertise—from PCB design to enterprise-scale digital twins.
I combine hands-on R&D leadership with enterprise digital transformation experience, bridging cutting-edge wireless tech (LoRaWAN/NB-IoT) with real-world facility optimization to drive sustainability and operational excellence for smart buildings and cities.
My unique fusion of corporate digital transformation leadership, Facilities management expertise and IoT startup innovation positions myself as a sought-after expert in sustainable smart infrastructure and operational excellence.
