Hi, I'm Sadik Ahmed Pinon — Darwin, NT, Australia
I turn messy public data into decisions people actually act on.
Computer Science graduate with hands-on ICT experience across service desk, cyber security and development. Building a career in the Northern Territory public sector.
About
Data-minded, ICT-broad, Darwin-committed.
I'm a Computer Science graduate based in Darwin, building a career at the intersection of data and ICT. I like working the full path from a messy dataset to a decision someone actually acts on — most recently spending months inside 40 years of Northern Territory Government population data to find out which region is quietly absorbing the Territory's growth. Outside of data work, I've rotated through service desk, cyber security and development on a placement with Charles Darwin University's Digital & Technology Services team, and I'm currently building backend features for an e-learning platform. I'm a two-time CDU scholarship recipient, and I'm committed to building my career in the Northern Territory public sector.
