Work Experience

Current, from Feb 2017

Airspan Networks, Junior Engineer

Maximizing network performance by monitoring performance, trou- bleshooting network problems and outages, and scheduling upgrades. Supporting and administrating ஹ rewall environments in line with IT security policy. Conஹ guring routing and switching equipment, hosted IP voice services and ஹ rewalls. Finding potential bugs in the micro cell towers (work as a signal booster as well) and open the bug to be ஹ xed by the management on Jira.Setting up all the micro towers inside the lab as donors to be tested and also making sure they do not interfere with each other by adding attenuators and changing the frequency between them. Creating orders everymonthforthelabequipmentsbasedonthe budget provided and submitting them to the management (UK) for ap- proval on BizDoc.

Apr 2017 – Aug 2017

Florida Power and Light, Contractor

Designed and processed construction work requests related to overhead electric distribution systems. Prepared computer assisted designs and generate construction drawings for review using CAD based sof ware. Performed design services with circuit drawings and distribution engi- neering concepts. Prepared distribution circuit designs, cost estimates and any other required documents and reports for construction. Made sure there is no mistakes in collected data by the ஹ eld engineers by the help of GIS. Successfully designed a renovated power distribution sys- tem inOpaLockathatwasdestroyedbythehurricanebytheendofthis internship (4 months) using a sof ware provided by the management. Projects

The Beacon Project

Derived theoretical calculations for circuit designs used for voltage regu- lation, designed schematic used for PCB design, state diagram for power management system, and a controller as the Booster Power Controller that drove the Signal Repeater Subsystem.

Home Natural Gas Sensor

Handled all project orders, organized and provided weekly reports to reach due dates, set meeting dates, structured and reviewed the ஹ nal ex- ecutive report, and designed the pitch for ஹ nal presentation for the fac- ulty members.

Wireless Telemetry for Animal Tracking

Designed a tank ஹ lter to clean up the signal, researched SMT parts to minimize thehigh-frequencyelectromagneticeஸfectsassociatedwiththrough- hole components, created PCB design and ஹ nished the necessary calcu- lations and project writing review before the due date that brought the group 97 out of 100 points.

StandaloneBatteryBackupPVSystemforAMountainCabin

Collectedalltherelevantinformation(location, latitude, longitude, slope, dimensions) about the cabin using Google maps and GIS, designed the model for thewiringsysteminsidethecabinusingthemodules,researched the inverter and controller to best ஹ t the project and that did not exceed provided budget, proposed a budget successfully based on the all equip- ment and surplus for traveling to the project location in Tennessee.
