AKASH ARWAR
@akasharwar
Senior product manager building FinTech and SaaS platforms that grow DAU, improve LTV, and reduce churn.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Product Manager with 10 years of progressive experience spanning business analysis, product ownership, and strategic product leadership across CFD FinTech, SaaS, and consumer platforms. I own end-to-end product lifecycle management—from discovery and strategy through delivery and optimization—making sure decisions stay data-driven and aligned to measurable KPIs.
In my current role, I own end-to-end product strategy, roadmap planning, and execution for MT5 FinTech (FX) CFD trading platforms, digital wallet systems, and secure communication applications serving multi-region users. I drive product vision and OKR-aligned delivery across 12+ major releases, leading cross-functional teams and improving feature delivery timelines by 30–35% by strengthening PRD/SRS documentation and agile backlog prioritization using RICE. I’ve also designed and scaled authentication, user identity management, payment processing, wallet integrations, and API-driven microservices architecture.
I’m especially proud of the measurable business impact I’ve delivered: 32% DAU growth, 20% LTV improvement, and 18% churn reduction—along with better engagement and reliability through A/B testing and continuous iteration. Previously, as a Senior Business Analyst / de facto Product Manager, I launched real-time collaboration features that drove 32% DAU growth and reduced churn by 18% within 3 months, while maintaining 90% on-time delivery. I bring deep technical fluency (API design, microservices, system integration) and domain expertise in FinTech, payments, digital wallets, and compliance (KYC/AML) to build scalable, compliant products.
