Uzair was an inspirational mentor who helped me a great deal during my transition to the new workplace back when I joined foodpanda. He’s a natural leader who leads by example and does not shy away from taking on challenges which he could easily deflect towards his team members. Professionally smart, self assured, and ambitious - three words that describe Uzair perfectly.
