“It’s been an absolute pleasure to work alongside Raafat during my time as a Tableau consultant as part of the EMEA professional services team. Raafat’s skillset is an excellent combination of outstanding technical knowledge, project management and team leadership. As a Tableau consultant, Raafat has planned and delivered several successful projects for customers across many industries. His expertise from previous roles working as a data engineer & team lead was extremely valuable in planning and implementing the data source strategy, and data governance for global Tableau customers. In addition, Raafat was the main go-to person in our team for any enterprise Tableau Server deployments due to the depth of his knowledge on this topic from designing the Tableau platform architecture to troubleshooting authentication and network challenges alongside IT teams from the customer side. Raafat and I have worked together on 4 enterprise customer projects that lasted between 2 to 6 months. On two of these projects, Raafat was also responsible for the overall successful delivery of the project, managing up to 3 people’s day-to-day activities. Raafat had a clear plan of activities mapped out over time and was providing regular updates both internally at Tableau and to all relevant stakeholders from the customer side. I have been part of several meetings where Raafat led kick-off and strategy meetings and I have always learnt something new from his approach to having these types of conversations. Raafat has an eye for detail when collecting project requirements, and documenting the scope, delivery activities and timelines as well as handover documentation. I cannot recommend Raafat enough; his expertise and empathy towards colleagues and customers are a great asset to any team/organisation.”
