Complex Program Operations | Defense Training
I supported operations for the Defense Strategic Debriefing Course (DSDC) in a high-trust DoD contracting environment, working directly with the course’s three senior leaders and supporting the day-to-day requirements of a specialized training program.
The role required coordinating student training operations, schedules, logistics, information, and the competing requirements necessary to keep the program moving reliably in an environment where discretion and operational accuracy mattered.

"Zahid has successfully delivered and deployed HCM within our company."
That's from the client review that landed on my profile this week, for OneHub — the payroll and people-operations platform I built for TechFoundry. Monthly payroll with fiscal-year tax withholding, payslips and tax certificates on demand, expense reports read line by line by Claude, and one reporting layer so the dashboard, the payslip and the certificate always agree.
The word I care about in that review is "deployed". Delivered means the code works. Deployed means payroll runs on it every month, people are paid the right amount, and nobody has to call me.
The thing I'd do differently: the tax rules started out hard-coded. Fine for one country, one fiscal year — until it wasn't. We later pulled them out into a rules engine so the same payroll runs across countries without touching the code. Next time that's day one, not a refactor.
It's also a Contra-verified project — the work was paid through Contra, so the review and the case study are tied to the same engagement. Case study: https://contra.com/p/Y3EgrEUc-payroll-and-people-operations-platform
Effective Workplace Communication – Training & Curriculum Design
This self-directed portfolio sample demonstrates my approach to transforming a workplace performance need into a structured, practical training experience. I designed the concept to include measurable learning objectives, organized course content, a communication framework, scenario-based practice, participant activities, a knowledge check, and an implementation strategy.
My approach focuses on making complex information clear, engaging, and immediately usable. Training is designed not simply to present information, but to help participants understand what to do, practice the skill, and apply it in the workplace.
Skills demonstrated: Instructional Design • Curriculum Development • Training Design • Facilitator Support • Scenario-Based Learning • Assessment Design • Performance Improvement
WordPress Built: Designed and developed a professional transportation website for DDD-Service, featuring a clean, user-focused layout, service presentation, booking functionality, contact sections, and responsive design.
