What I'm looking for

I'm immediately available for FTE and FTC engagements. I'd welcome a conversation about your business direction, objectives, and challenges.

At Smooth Pay, I lead strategy and delivery for a QR-based payment platform that lets merchants accept digital payments without traditional POS hardware. I work across product, engineering, design, operations, and commercial teams, guiding features from requirements and API workflows through UAT and launch.

At Qlub, I led expansion across four GCC markets and developed market-entry playbooks that supported onboarding 20+ merchants per market within 90 days. I also created a merchant integration dashboard using Jira API, SQL, REST, and Power BI, helping track 1,000+ merchants and reduce transaction failures by 30%.
