ABOUT OUMAIMA

Technology enthusiast and builder, public speaker, coach, Inclusion and Social Impact Advocate. My purpose is rooted in empowering diverse communities to imagine new possibilities for themselves, helping teams & startups to strategize their growth, building products at scale.

Growing a wealth of knowledge and experiences around the world, from living in 5 different countries, 10 different cities, speaking multiple languages, adapting to various cultures, growing up in Africa, majoring in Computer Science, I have been consistently pushing through to breaking many norms. My professional journey landed me first at Siemens Research, with a layover at Air France-KLM and currently at Microsoft Headquarters as a Software Engineer, with strong instincts shaping the vision and strategy of revolutionary products/services. Through my work at Microsoft, I develop services to secure the supply chain of the Windows Operating System and enhancing developers’ productivity as well as driving impactful organizational initiatives that align with business growth, leading D&I initiatives to setting up each individual up to success in their professional journey.

Throughout the years, I have lived by a passion to sports and travels, which led me to exploring 23 countries so far and competing with the Moroccan national swimming team for about 10 years. Outside of my professional journey, I have taken multiple opportunities as a public speaker and a coach, guiding the audience towards the power of embracing empathy and building resilience. Sharing worldwide conference stages with prominent leaders has been such an incredible adventure, whether it was with John W. Thompson, Former Chairman of the Board of Microsoft, Jason Zander, Executive Vice President of Azure, and many others.

Building expertise in tech and applying leadership, in many areas of my life and work in general, has inspired me to launch a non-profit initiative, The Impact Bubble, focused on mentorship and empowerment, unlocking the highest potential of individuals from all walks of life. My strong community commitment counts numerous contributions, the latest being a mentor at Techstars, a judge at the NASA Space App challenge 2021 edition, a mentor in SheCodeAfrica mentoring program and a speaker at the Global Youth Empowerment Summit.

Every single day, I aspire to lead with courage, perseverance and determination, to create accessibility and relatability, to be the role model I once wished I had, in spaces where nobody looks alike. My mission is to ship meaningful, high-impact technologies and creating an inclusive, enabling environment for individuals to release high potential through leadership, bold thinking and social impact.
