With over 15 years of experience in the IT and financial services industry, I’ve built my career at the intersection of technology, product strategy, and digital innovation—leading the development and delivery of retail banking platforms, payment solutions, and customer onboarding journeys across the Middle East. I bring deep expertise in the full software development lifecycle (SDLC), combined with a strong product mindset and a hands-on approach to execution. My work spans digital banking solutions, omnichannel distribution, KYC/KYB processes, and scalable API-driven platforms—all aligned to drive growth, compliance, and customer-centricity. Key strengths: • Translating complex business needs into clear technical requirements and product roadmaps • Leading cross-functional teams in agile environments to deliver high-impact digital products • Streamlining onboarding and compliance journeys to reduce friction and improve conversion • Balancing innovation with regulation in fast-paced fintech and banking ecosystems I’m known for my problem-solving mindset, attention to detail, and ability to bridge the gap between business and technology. I love tackling new challenges, learning new domains, and building products that truly make a difference.
