Profit-driven product and business executive focused on fintech growth.
What I'm looking for
I am a product and business executive with deep experience across fintech, banking, SaaS, eCommerce, and logistics, focused on scaling adoption, optimizing operations, and driving profitability.
I have launched and scaled consumer and merchant products — from BNPL and working-capital loans to POS terminals and eCommerce platforms — delivering measurable gains in loan volumes, customer acquisition, GMV, and revenue.
My strengths include product lifecycle management, API and card integrations, KYC/compliance alignment, and data-driven UX and operational optimization that reduce churn and improve unit economics.
I partner closely with cross-functional teams and external partners to execute go-to-market strategies, automate operational flows, and maintain regulatory readiness while advancing product monetization and market expansion.
