What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a product leadership role where I can own strategy and roadmap, drive GTM execution, optimize pricing and portfolio, and lead cross-functional teams to deliver measurable revenue and margin growth.

I’m a product management leader with over 17 years of experience in telecom and ICT, focused on product strategy, go-to-market (GTM), pricing, and portfolio growth. I develop and scale B2B and B2C products by aligning commercial strategy with market demand.

I lead end-to-end product lifecycle management—owning product roadmap direction, pricing, commercialization, and execution. I translate market insights into competitive positioning and portfolio strategies to improve profitability and demand performance.

In recent roles, I’ve driven enterprise portfolio optimization and improved margin performance by 20% through pricing, packaging, and portfolio changes. I’ve also shaped multi-year product strategy, including achieving 60% revenue growth over a 5-year period by coordinating cross-functional teams and scaling growth across a multi-million SAR portfolio.
