Why Hire Husain?

🏗️

Enterprise-Scale Track Record

Delivered 7+ large-scale SOA and BSS transformation projects for STC — one of the GCC's biggest telecoms. I know how to handle complexity, manage cross-functional teams, and meet tight deadlines.

🔐

Oracle-Certified Expert

Dual Oracle SOA Suite 12c certifications — both Implementation and System Architecture/Administration — validating deep technical expertise in the tools that power enterprise integration.

🔄

Revenue-Critical Systems

I've owned and operated billing, e-payment, BSS, and provisioning integrations — the systems where downtime directly costs money. I deliver reliability.

👥

Lead & Deliver

Not just a hands-on engineer — I lead teams, run meetings, estimate effort, and own project outcomes from kick-off to go-live. I bridge tech and business.

🌐

Bilingual & GCC-Based

Fluent in English and Arabic. Based in Kuwait with deep understanding of GCC telecom markets and enterprise culture.

Reliable Under Pressure

Proven 24/7 on-call track record across multiple years and roles. When systems go down at 3am, I'm the person you want on speed dial.
