Aqeel Ahmed
Trainee Junior Systems Engineer
As Trainee Junior Systems Engineer, Aqeel shadows our level one team as the first point of contact for incoming client IT issues. He will be among the first to attempt to fix your technical issues. When you call with a problem, he’ll begin the troubleshooting process, creating a detailed log in case the issue needs to be escalated.
Before joining us, Aqeel was doing a T-Level, with his placement being in the Cyber Security Department at Aviva.
“I was a T-Level student, just like Adon, but had my placement at Aviva for 18 months. This consisted of me working within the Cyber Security Department with the Risk Vulnerability Management team. I shadowed a lot and was responsible adding users to their risk vulnerability software.
Before this, I started learning how to cut my own hair. It started very rocky and I took a year off as I messed my hair up a lot. I then came back to barbering when I got hired at KFC, invested some money into better equipment and have stuck with it since. I now cut my friends and my own hair independently. I have learnt how to do near enough everything from fading to scissor work, all through YouTube and TikTok.”
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
Barbering, going to the gym, and playing games with close friends.
If you could have invented or created anything, what would it be?
Math – It’s really cool if you think about it, it’s everywhere.
He went above and beyond to help me and very patient and understanding.
