Chief Operating Officer experienced in scaling tech ventures, operations, and AI-driven products.
What I'm looking for
I am a Chief Operations Officer with 10+ years building, scaling, and advising technology ventures across AI, blockchain, and digital platforms.
I have led organisations from early-stage growth to operational maturity, scaling teams from 30 to 150+ employees, delivering ISO 9001/14001/27001 certifications, and reducing operating costs by 60% through automation and restructuring.
I founded an AI psychometric SaaS, taking it from concept to MVP in three months, secured initial pilot customers, and recruited a cross-functional team rapidly.
I specialise in organisational design, strategic planning, risk and compliance, AI product development, and international people operations, and I focus on aligning stakeholders and implementing scalable systems in fast-paced environments.
