Ahmed Mohamed
@ahmedmohamed18
Agile product and business leader delivering fintech and marketplace products; I blend data analytics and GenAI frameworks.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Agile/Scrum-certified product and business leader with a Master’s degree in Global Innovation Management and 20 years of working experience in the High-tech sector. I specialize in introducing new products and turning strategy into shipped outcomes.
Across roles as Product Owner/Business Analyst and Agile Coach, I’ve led requirement definition, acceptance criteria, backlog management, and team alignment using Agile, SAFe, and Kanban. I also bring a design-thinking mindset and strong delivery support through DevOps-aligned practices.
On the data side, I’ve built and planned modern analytics and data solutions, including data warehousing and a “GenAI and LLM roadmap and framework,” covering “Various RAG models.” I focus on pragmatic implementations that connect business goals to measurable results.
My experience also spans project delivery and cross-functional integration, including mobile payments (KYC/AML and wallet capabilities), marketplace and order management, and regulated environments. I enjoy coaching teams to improve how they work—so they can deliver faster, safer, and with clearer product value.
