Tell us more about yourself and what led you to your current position. What three words would you use to describe your role?
My name is Mohamed Younes, and I am currently a Sales Engineer at Ruptela. I have always been passionate about technology and how it can make our lives easier and more efficient. This passion led me to pursue a degree in computer engineering, where I learned about various technologies and their applications.
After completing my degree, I started working as a Technical Support Engineer at Ruptela. It was a great opportunity to apply my knowledge and skills in a practical setting, and I enjoyed working with customers and helping them solve their technical problems. Over time, I wanted to explore the sales aspect of the industry and learn more about how technology can be marketed and sold. That’s when I decided to transform it into my current Sales Engineer role.
When and why did you join Ruptela’s team?
I joined Ruptela’s team in October 2016. I was attracted to Ruptela because of its reputation as a leading telematics solutions provider. I was impressed by the company’s commitment to innovation and its focus on providing excellent customer service.
Moreover, the opportunity to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment with cutting-edge technology was too exciting to pass up. I was also drawn to the company’s continuous learning and development culture, which aligns with my values and goals.
How does your journey at Ruptela looks like?
My journey at Ruptela has been both exciting and challenging. As a technical support engineer, I was responsible for helping customers troubleshoot technical issues with their telematics systems. It was a great learning experience as I had the opportunity to work with customers from different industries and backgrounds.
After three years in technical support, I was promoted to a senior support engineer role, where I took on more complex cases and mentored new team members. This role enhanced my technical skills and deepened my understanding of Ruptela’s products and services.
Last year, I transitioned to my current role as a Sales Engineer, working closely with the Sales team to identify and pursue new business opportunities. It has been a great experience so far, and I am excited to continue learning and growing with Ruptela.
How do you start your day? Please share any rituals or tips&tricks that help you stay productive all-day.
I start my day by reviewing my schedule and to-do list for the day. I find prioritizing my tasks and focusing on the most important ones helpful. I also like to take a few minutes to meditate and clear my mind before diving into work.
Throughout the day, I try to take breaks and stretch my legs to keep my energy levels up. It is helpful to take a quick walk or do some light exercise to stay focused and productive.
What motivates you to go to work every day?
What motivates me the most is the opportunity to work with a team of talented and passionate professionals dedicated to positively impacting the industry. I enjoy collaborating with my colleagues and learning from their diverse experiences and perspectives.
It is also fulfilling to help our customers achieve their goals and solve their business challenges through our telematics solutions. Seeing how our technology can make a tangible difference in their operations and the bottom line is rewarding for me.

I also enjoy working with a diverse group of people from different backgrounds and cultures. It’s interesting to learn about their experiences and perspectives, and it helps me broaden my own understanding of the world.
Tell us more about your hobbies
In my free time, I enjoy video gaming, fishing, and cooking. Video gaming is a great way to unwind and relax after a long day at work, and it’s also a great method to connect with friends and family who share the same interests.
Fishing is another hobby that I enjoy. It’s a fantastic activity to get out into nature and disconnect from the stresses of everyday life. The peacefulness and serenity of being on the water are very calming and rejuvenating.
Finally, I love to cook and experiment with different recipes and ingredients, and I find cooking a creative outlet to explore other cultures and cuisines. And… what could be better than connecting with friends and family over a delicious meal?
Interesting facts about you.
One interesting fact about me is that I have passed the state Constitution exam and hold a degree in Lithuanian Constitution. This has given me a unique perspective on Lithuania’s legal system and governance. Additionally, I speak four languages – English, Arabic, and Lithuanian, and have a basic knowledge of French, which has helped me to bond with people from different parts of the world and learn about their perspectives.
What is your favorite place in the world? Why?
As an Egyptian, my favorite place in the world is my home country. I love Egypt’s rich history, culture, and beautiful landmarks, such as the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the temples of Luxor. Every time I visit Egypt, I feel a sense of pride and belonging that is hard to describe. The hospitality and warmth of the Egyptian people are unparalleled, and the food is delicious. From the hustle and bustle of Cairo to the serene beauty of the Red Sea, Egypt has so much to offer. It will always be my favorite place.

My advice for those who want to start their career in the telematics industry is to stay curious and keep learning. The industry constantly evolves, and staying up-to-date with the latest technology and trends is essential.
It’s also essential to develop a deep understanding of the industry and its applications. This will help you identify new business opportunities and provide value to your customers.
