I am the Chief Technology Officer of WAKEB DATA leading AI and software development teams to program a wide range of software applications for customers in the Middle East, including:- Drone-based detection, classification, and tracking. - Chatbot: Automatic understanding and response to customer inquiries. - Speech and handwriting recognition.- Visual action recognition for autism diagnosis via pose estimation and video classification.In collaboration with the CEO, COO, IT, business and project managers, I have practised various tasks such as software design, technology selection, technical team management, and strategic planning. Over different data science and machine learning projects, I have guided data scientists, NLP specialists, and compute vision engineers to achieve high-quality software analysis, data collection, AI modelling and evaluation, and product deployment. I directly supervise a research unit to develop novel AI models for detecting DeepFakes, generating human-like chatbot conversations, and computing the optimal routes for drones and ground vehicle control. I also initiated the WAKEB GIS unit to localise the development of location intelligence and geospatial software development. My team have successfully built an original and novel software containing a large set of analytical and essential GIS functions, such as trend analysis, footfall, split view, location prediction, asset management and recourse allocation. I have participated in building an AI-Cybersecurity strategic plan to guide the technical team to develop and commercialise software packages for business mail compromise, email impersonation, mailbox compromise, business identity theft, and phone scams. I have participated in other top-level tasks, such as evaluating the current strategic plan and building a new strategic plan. I have guided different team leaders and strategy officers to develop the work objectives and set the key performance indicators (KPIs).
