Biography

I am a Jordanian with an M.Sc. degree in “Computational Mechanics” from the Technical University of Munich. My thesis topic is in the implementation of a fourth-order finite volume method solver. During my studies, I have developed a profound knowledge in Software Engineering, Computational Fluid Dynamics and Finite Element Analysis. Also, through working part-time in the industry, I have expanded my knowledge in agile software development. Currently, I am keen to get more exposed to innovative projects through full-time employment.

Certificates

Worked with a team on a project which was mainly finding a way to train an algorithms to find optimium testing points on produced BMW car doors. The name of the team Voxelization comes from the team using the voxel data of the 3D drawings with human-selected optimum points to feed them to the training algorithm.
