Senior product and project manager building scalable platforms for impact.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Product and Project Manager with deep experience delivering scalable digital platforms across FinTech, HealthTech, and mission-driven organisations. I lead cross-functional teams to streamline delivery pipelines, optimise infrastructure costs, improve security and reliability, and align delivery milestones with commercial outcomes — enabling revenue realisation and measurable business impact.
My background blends technical fluency with strong stakeholder management: I’ve driven platform improvements across microservices and APIs, introduced organisation-wide release processes, reduced infrastructure spend through autoscaling and monitoring, and acted as a product SME in RFIs and pre-sales engagements. I prioritise predictable delivery, operational efficiency, and secure, compliant solutions that support growth.
