What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable SaaS or fintech products end-to-end, own features independently, and work closely with stakeholders in a fast-moving product environment.

I've built and maintained SaaS and fintech products for YABA Restaurant By Chef Shaheen, Yana Banking Services, Enlightors, and Lezzoo. At YABA, I develop a restaurant management platform and admin panel that gives operations staff direct control over daily management.

At YBS, I designed a payment gateway for merchant transaction processing and built dashboards for payment management, real-time monitoring, POS operations, and reporting. I work across frontend, backend, database design, and UI with close attention to reliability and data accuracy.

Previously, I launched Prsyar and One Connect at Enlightors, owning features from architecture through deployment. I also maintained live merchant-facing and internal operations tools at Lezzoo in a fast-moving YC-backed environment.
