Faridah Orelope
@faridahorelope
Product manager focused on execution-first product operations for fintech and e-commerce.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Product Manager with a strong operational foundation and over 4 years of hands-on experience in e-commerce product operations. I translate customer and business needs into operational and product improvements, while driving platform performance across high-volume ecosystems.
I built and launched Jekalo, a live social walking product, from concept to deployment in 30 days. As the sole product decision-maker, I owned the full product lifecycle—discovery to post-launch iteration—using Supabase for backend integration, and I turned user insights into next-step priorities.
In product operations, I delivered zero fulfillment errors while managing end-to-end operations for e-commerce platforms carrying large, fast-moving catalogs. I also improved catalog management through uploads, image coordination, and taxonomy improvements, partnering with developers and designers to strengthen reliability and user experience.
I bring a user-centered, execution-first approach to every role, with clear stakeholder communication and practical problem-solving. Beyond product work, I coordinate initiatives like a British Council-supported creative project, and I continue building my product management craft through certifications and ongoing learning.
