I have working experience in GIS database manipulation like geodatabase and managed ArcSDE spatial relational database in Server environment. I was Division Head in water utility government office and worked also as project engineer. At this capacity I managed to map water points (bore holes), water mains (major pipe lines), reservoir locations, manholes etc. As a project engineer I was responsible for deep water well drilling project which consists of client, consultant and contractors and I successfully managed the project. Some of the products were various maps like detailed geological, hydrogeological, and groundwater modeling etc.

Have done detailed geological mapping of 5 km of tunnel, borehole logging, packer tests, strength tests in lab and field and presented it on geotechnical report which was applied for tunnel design.

I am a good team player, hardworking, and able to meet hard deadlines.
