About Ibrahim Zaaroura

I\'m an Operations Manager and Biomedical Engineer with 10+ years of experience in asset-intensive and regulated environments across the United States and the Middle East. My work centers on operational execution — managing multi-site facilities, overseeing preventive and corrective maintenance programs, coordinating vendors and contractors, and building KPI systems that give real visibility into performance. I\'ve managed rotating asset portfolios exceeding $2M, supervised site managers and technical teams, and reduced repair cycle time by approximately 20% through structured process improvement using DMAIC methodology. What makes my background a little different is the combination of operations management and a technical foundation in biomedical engineering. Earlier in my career I worked hands-on in Gulf healthcare facilities supporting medical device installation, calibration, preventive maintenance, and compliance in UAE hospital environments. That experience gives me a practical understanding of how healthcare operations run on the ground — not just from the management side but from the technical side as well. I\'m currently pursuing CPHQ certification and actively looking for my next opportunity in healthcare operations, facilities management, or O&M environments. Native Arabic speaker. M.S. Biomedical Engineering — Wright State University. Open to connecting with recruiters and hiring managers in the healthcare and facilities sector.
