About Me:

With over 23 years of experience in both military and commercial aviation, I am a seasoned UAV Operations Leader and technical specialist. My career began in the Pakistan Air Force, where I honed my skills in defense ISR systems, aircraft maintenance, electronic warfare, and tactical UAV deployments. This foundation has given me a unique perspective and expertise in flight line operations, airworthiness testing, and system integration. In the commercial sector, I've led successful drone missions for mining, infrastructure, and national security. At Tilad Group, for example, I've executed BVLOS drone missions for mineral exploration and infrastructure surveys across Saudi Arabia, achieving sub-5 cm accuracy and reducing survey costs by up to 70%. I've also trained more than 30 UAV pilots in GACA compliance and flight safety. My work is focused on leveraging advanced drone technology, such as DJI Matrice RTK platforms with Zenmuse P1 and H2OT payloads, to deliver precise geospatial mapping and data processing. I have a proven track record of reducing project turnaround times by up to 40% through automated workflows with tools like UGCS and Pix4D. I am passionate about pioneering new BVLOS operations in challenging environments to drive efficiency and cut costs.
