Developer

Abdiladif Bashir

I've had an unconventional development path over the last decade with lots of exploration and learning the hard way. Some things do not need to be a struggle though and I'm hoping I can help people navigate these waters with ease.

AJ Rabi

I would love to join the mentorship program to share my experience and journey with my community.

Content Manager

Cosar Farah

As someone who is new to the tech industry, I am aware how difficult it is to get your foot in the door. I have lots of tips and advise on how you can get into the industry I would love to share and support people who want to make the transition into this industry. 

Fadumo Aideed

I’m a senior researcher and product designer for an American S&P 500 firm, American Express. The shortage of black talent in this sector is shocking, in design and research it is so rare to see any persons of colour. Let alone Somalis. I’ve worked at American Express and The Economist and I know how to navigate many of the challenges face by folk in the U.K. heading into the corp world.

Faysel Elmi

Hi, I'm a Biomedical Sciences graduate and currently working as a Software Engineer in the automation space. I'm self-taught and feel passionate on the notion that you don't have to spend crazy £££ to get into tech. Having a mentor during my coding journey helped me a lot, and I would love to play even a small part in another brilliant person getting into tech. 

Hayfa Awshan

Salaam. I'm a well experienced software engineer, keen on mentoring those making their transition into tech by sharing what I know.

Developer, (Senior software eng)

Ibrahim Farah

I am a Software Developer living in Charlotte, North Carolina specializing in Go-lang backend engineer and cloud. My friends describe me as an individual possessed by curiosity, I enjoy learning for the sake of learning.

Do you know what the etymology of the word school is?  Originally in ancient Greece rich kids when they wanted to indulge their curiosity would seek out an expert in a subject, and learn. The word school originally pronounced as scholé meant indulging your curiosity. Fast forward to the modern world and you can literally find an expert in pretty much anything and ask as many questions as you want while you learn.

I enjoy learning, the topics I’m studying are things I am curious about.My educational motivation is best described as, I am a sponge that absorbs knowledge. I want to help others learn and progress in their careers and ignite that spark of curiosity. 

Jamal Yusuf

I’m currently a UX Researcher at IBM. I’ve conducted research in over 20 counties around the world with hundreds of users. 

I’m interested in being a mentor because this is something I do today at IBM. I honestly love it and it would be that much rewarding if I was helping out my people instead! So why not!? 
I also want to offer and show a route into tech that isn’t necessarily just coding. 

UX Researcher 

Liban Ibrahim

I am a front end developer. I know html, css, sass, javascript, node, react, react native. I also know how to use github and git properly (and believe me there is a proper way of using it). If you are working on a project, and you have specific questions, then i can try to help you. If you have no current projects, and you are just getting started, then i'd love to help as well. I've done one-on-one tutoring perviously where i helped people learn how to code, so i have some previous experience in this area. 

Mahad Mohamood

I am a Product Specialist/Data Analyst at a fintech startup in Toronto. Data was always a point of interest for me, and a few years after graduating I decided to take courses in data. Outside of work and family, I try to spend time getting through (or attempting to) my to be read/to be watched list, writing, or planning out whatever outdoor trips I can.

One of the things that are always reiterated in the SiT community in slack and elsewhere is for each of us to pay things forward. It's something I grew up with, something I've witnessed a lot at SiT. My boss has also, in the year I've known him, really shown me exactly how beneficial mentorship is for both mentor and mentee. Couldn't think of a better way to pay forward those lessons than here.

Just as an aside; I've put down video chat as the preferred method of contact, but please feel free to select whatever you're comfortable with!

Product Specialist/Product Data Analyst

Maryan Mahamed

I have have been mentoring for a long time, and it's one of the things i enjoy about my field, i can educate fresh minds and that gives the drive to explore more, i also started lecturing at a university, and it's been wonderful.

Developer, UX/UI designer

Mohamed Abdulkadir Osman

I'm a Growth Product Manager at a startup focused on innovating in the hiring marketplace space. I landed in this role via a non-traditional path that involved creating my own learning curriculum that included subjects such as marketing , analytics, sales and product. 

I want to share what I've learned with others that are interested in any of the topics I mentioned above to help guide those that have broken away from the mold of traditional learning (and remind you that you aren't insane 😅).

Product Manager, Growth/Marketing

Mohammud Hassan

I have been in Tech for the past decade. Ive been starting tech companies and taking them to market. Currently on my third Startup just raised a few million for my seed round from some of the top investors in the world. YC backed as well. I have learned a lot from failures and I have made it a priority to be the helping hand I wish I had when I first started.

Moktar Yusuf

Three years ago I graduated with a computer science degree and didn't have any direct mentorship until I was well off into my career. I currently work as a software developer and would love to help anyone who is in the field, needing to get their resume or cover letter reviewed or someone interested in tech that needs help getting started. If you'd also like someone to talk to about career paths or dev software tools, I would love that too! 

Siham Salah

Often when I'm working on projects I don't see people that look like me. I have been open to mentoring throughout my career and even hired interns. I like to help build careers and build bridges for those looking to become professional software engineers. I hope that by mentoring people I can pass on knowledge that they wouldn't learn in school or that would take years of experience to learn. My process is project based learning as that is what helped me become good at what I do. I can provide books and resources (free) and expect that if I spend time teaching that the mentee will spend time learning.
