Background

About Roda Ibrahim

Curious mind, creative heart, and a love for solving puzzles—one data set at a time. I’m a final-year Bachelor of Science student at the University of Auckland, majoring in Computer Science and Information Management Technology. I’m passionate about leveraging technology to solve real-world problems and bring clarity to complex systems. Alongside my studies, I work at Mitre 10, where I’ve built strong communication and problem-solving skills in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment. This experience has taught me how to stay adaptable, think on my feet, and work effectively within a team. One of my favorite projects involved strategic data analysis and business process optimization for Allbirds. This involved evaluating their sustainability strategies, applying Porter’s Five Forces and Generic Strategies to assess market positioning, and mapping core business processes to identify cost-saving opportunities. The project gave me valuable insight into the intersection of technology, business strategy, and sustainability. I enjoy working with tools like Excel, Python, Java and Power BI, and I’m always looking for new ways to sharpen my technical and analytical skills. Outside of work and study, I’m all about balance—I’ve completed the Auckland Half Marathon, and I find joy in baking, exploring side hustles, and going on hikes. I bring the same energy to my professional life: curious, driven, and always looking for smart, creative ways to grow.
