    • Xavor Corporation

      Jun 2005 - Sept 2006
      Software Engineer

      This was my first real job and I learnt a great deal here. I was part of a team working on the website management software of Edwards Life Sciences. The main tool used was the MS Content Management Server 2002. My role was to communicate with the US client via phone and email, translating the requirements into technical details and then to code them.

    • Supreme Court of Pakistan

      Jun 2012 - Dec 2014
      Data Processing Manager

      I worked as the head of the IT department. The job involved procurement, overseeing day-to-day running and maintenance of equipment and occasionally offering specialized support to a few court cases, along with a little bit of in-house software development. I feel that my most important achievement is the verification of computerized data with the physical files, as well as a re-design of the organization's internal software system; both of which have played a huge role in improving case scheduling and report generation.
