Arif Iftikhar

I am a software engineer with 18 years of experience. working on all parts of software development and for various domains and industries.

During my 18 years professional career I have worked on various software; from small desktop applications to enterprise systems. Most of my experience is in Java, C/C++ and C# .NET. However there have been many projects in between where I got to work with Python, PHP, and Embedded development as well.

Most Recently

Working with Landmark (Halliburton Project) SDM Dropsite for Seismic Data Management. Glad to share that I got the chance to own the Integration of AWS S3 and Azure Blob storage for cost effective and reliable storage options for huge volumes of Seismic Data. This was done mainly using the respective Java client Api (AWS S3 and Azure Blob Storage) and creating a generic interface around it.

Core Algorithms for seismic data processing are in C/C++ and maintaining the huge C++ code base as lead C++ programmer is exciting and challenging. Before that worked for Defence industry products e.g. Telecom, Embedded and Web, Integration with VMS and GIS solutions.

BS Computer science from COMSATS University Islamabad.
