01 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE SYSTEMS

An engineer’s mindset.
A data scientist’s curiosity.
A practical sense of purpose.

I’m Mohamed, an engineer and data scientist based in Djibouti. As Head of Terminal Equipment Control System (TECS) at SGTD, my focus is the connection between physical equipment, digital systems and the people who use them.

My work brings together industrial IoT, automation, analytics and project delivery. From fuel management to equipment monitoring, I’m interested in technology that makes complex operations easier to understand and manage.
