A remote Senior PM role where I can own onboarding, growth, or core product — ideally in crypto, fintech, or health/longevity. I've 2.35x'd conversion rates, launched apps with 100K+ installs and 4.8 stars, and led MiCA compliance implementation. I work best in small, high-trust teams that value shipping over process theater. Europe-based, timezone-flexible.

Fintech Product Manager · 2.35x onboarding conversion in 6 months · MiCA launch · Swan 4.8-star app
CzechiaWhat I'm looking for
I ship fintech and crypto products. 2.35x'd install-to-first-buy conversion at Relai. Built Swan app from scratch to 100K installs and 4.8★.
I specialize in onboarding, activation, and growth — turning complex regulated products into experiences people complete and come back to. I lead small, senior teams and work best where ownership is high and process is lean.
Led MiCA regulatory launch at Relai — migrating 80,000+ customers across retail, private, and business segments, implementing KYC/AML compliance and risk tooling end-to-end. Developed product strategy for Trezor's next-generation self-custody solution. Built Swan's mobile app from zero and transformed the company into mobile-first — 85%+ of customers shifted to the app as their primary experience.
I use Jobs to be Done (Bob Moesta's approach) to understand why people really buy — and turn those insights into product strategy. I use Shape Up to ship without losing focus, implemented in 2 companies and consulted for 5 more. I also look for leverage through automation: I built an AI agent that autonomously triages bugs by pulling context from Intercom, Sentry, and GitLab before any engineer investigates.
Bitcoiner since 2013.
