What I'm looking for

I seek a technical leadership role in a fast-moving fintech, payments or banking company where I can apply program/project management, telecom and cloud expertise to launch products, solve scale challenges, and drive business impact with mission-driven teams.

I am an Agile Program Manager and Scrum Master with experience leading cross-border payment fintech and banking projects, tracking milestones and driving products from design to launch. I have led PMO functions and managed end-to-end execution using both waterfall and Agile frameworks while collaborating with stakeholders and third-party vendors.

My background includes technical roles in telecommunications—configuring Ericsson transmission equipment and managing network upgrades—alongside cloud and tooling experience (GCP, Azure, SQL, JIRA, Trello, Postman, Grafana). I hold a First Class Computer Engineering degree and seek to apply my Markets, B2B and financial-services expertise to fast-moving, mission-driven companies solving scale challenges.
