Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShawky N is a multilingual technical support specialist and localization engineer with 11 years of experience bridging software, web development, and Chinese–Arabic translation. Based in Egypt, he supports Wordfast products while delivering internationalization and localization for web projects and software (Lingobit, SDL Passolo), and trains users on CAT tools and Microsoft Office. His background combines a BA in Chinese-English languages, advanced studies in Chinese teaching and educational technology, and hands-on PHP/MySQL web development. A former student-union president and member of the Translators' Association of China, he pairs cross-cultural communication and simultaneous interpreting experience with practical technical troubleshooting. Less obvious: he routinely translates high-stakes documents (UN, political/economic) and leverages that domain knowledge to make localization workflows more accurate and compliant.
