What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead end-to-end product delivery, collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, and build user-centered SaaS products that solve meaningful operational challenges.

At IT-RANKS, I lead product delivery across SaaS and enterprise HR solutions, translating stakeholder needs into prioritized backlogs and user-centric releases. I delivered an attendance system across web and mobile in two months that now serves over 120,000 employees daily.

I also led a four-person team through a complete Customer Success Portal revamp, drove requirements for HR services platforms serving multiple KSA clients, and supported UI improvements for the company website.

Previously at Milango, I coordinated delivery of a real estate SaaS product for 12+ developers while managing 12 concurrent client relationships and a seven-engineer team. I took ownership of QA, wrote Gherkin user stories, and brought a chronically delayed timeline back on track through hands-on coordination and reprioritization.

I bring product ownership, Agile delivery, UX collaboration, QA, and client management together to carry products from ideation through launch.
