Ibrahim Shehata

Senior Arabic Linguist and Professional Translator with over 17 years of experience delivering high-quality, culturally adapted language solutions for the MENA region. Holding a BA in Translation from Al-Azhar University, I specialize in Psychology, Behavioral Sciences, and Academic Translation, alongside Technical, IT, and Legal localization.
Translating psychological and clinical content requires more than linguistic fluency; it demands deep contextual understanding, terminological precision, and cultural sensitivity to ensure concepts resonate accurately with Arab audiences. I am highly proficient in industry-standard CAT tools (SDL Trados Studio, MemoQ, Wordfast Pro) and advanced Machine Translation Post-Editing (MTPE) workflows. Throughout my career, I have translated and reviewed over 1 million words for enterprise clients across the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain, consistently achieving a 99.8% QA score and 98%+ human parity in MTPE projects.
I am passionate about empowering researchers, tech companies, and legal entities with meticulous, context-aware translations. I am always open to connecting with publishers, localization managers, and institutions looking for reliable, high-caliber Arabic linguistic services.
