Quality Specialist at Silmas Contracting Company
  • Saudi Arabia - Jeddah
  • February 2024 to April 2024

As a Quality Specialist overseeing the ISO 9001 Project for each department, my main responsibility is to ensure that every part of our organization meets the required quality standards. Working closely with department leaders, I carefully evaluate their operational processes to find areas that need improvement, while making sure they follow ISO rules.

Within each department, I help them through the ISO 9001 certification process and set up quality management systems that fit their needs. I look at data to see how they're doing and find ways to make things better, so each department gets better at quality.

I collaborate with department teams to ensure our collective focus remains on enhancing product quality and service standards. Through ongoing improvement efforts, we uphold our reputation for excellence within each department.

System Integration & Digital Transformation Project Leader at Silmas Contracting Company
  • Saudi Arabia - Jeddah
  • May 2022 to February 2024

In my capacity as a System Integration & Digital Transformation Project Leader, I engaged in close collaboration with multiple department leaders to conduct comprehensive analyses of existing processes, identifying areas for improvement and optimization. By actively empathizing with each department's challenges, I provided tailored solutions to address specific needs and operational pain points.

I developed a user-friendly dashboard interface using Excel to visually present key insights and performance indicators (KPIs). This empowered executives with real-time, data-driven insights, fostering a culture of informed decision-making throughout the organization. The dashboard also served as a blueprint for the development of a new system, enabling the IT department to easily grasp complex information. This ensured alignment with organizational objectives and user requirements, with a targeted launch within the next year.

Through the implementation of this dashboard, the main goal was to streamline decision-making processes, reduce obstacles, and drive sustained organizational efficiency and success.
