Product Owner specializing in payments, building regulated financial products from scratch.
What I'm looking for
I am a Product Owner with deep expertise in payments infrastructure, building regulated financial products from scratch and leading 0→1 initiatives.
Over the past decade I launched internet banking applications, integrated international payments via SWIFT and merchant service providers, and led development of Payment Shared Services such as fraud detection and sanction screening.
Technically hands‑on, I design APIs and the interfaces that consume them, coach small senior teams, run agile ceremonies, and prioritize roadmaps to maximise ROI and regulatory compliance.
I combine a UX background, an MBA in Marketing and PSPO I certification with a pragmatic owner mentality: I don't just manage products — I own their success.
