What I'm looking for

I seek a role improving payment operations and partner performance in a collaborative fintech or SaaS team, focused on measurable revenue growth and compliance.

I am a payments and fintech partnerships specialist with 6+ years of hands-on experience launching and scaling payment operations across multiple jurisdictions.

I work closely with banks, EMIs and PSPs to advise merchants on payment architecture, onboarding strategy and compliance readiness to ensure stable processing and high approval rates.

I have led payments operations, prevented banking restrictions, built PSP infrastructure for 12+ merchants, and implemented data-driven optimization frameworks that increased ARPU, retention and LTV.

I translate payment and technical complexity into commercial recommendations, run A/B tests and collaborate cross-functionally to improve approval rates, reduce chargebacks and enable sustainable revenue growth.
