About Me

Hi, My Name is Omar Fattah, I was born on the 1st of January 1978, I am a project engineer with years of practical experiences in software development process using agile methodologies, as well as systems, network and SharePoint administration both on Premise and on the Cloud.

To my background; after my graduation from the University of Engineering (June 2000) I worked as tutor and later on in different international IT positions until 2006. When the security situation in my home country Iraq started rapidly degrading and I realised that there was no chance for me to move up the ladder, I decided to leave the country to my wife's home country Austria.

After settling down in Vienna, in 2007, I immediately started to learn German and then successfully finished my double Master degree in 2010. In my different working position I have managed to gain practical experiences in Scrum, agile software development process, software quality, requirements engineering, On Premise and Clouding technologies and many more.

In my spare time I usually enjoy with my family. We love playing, swimming and travelling.
