People worth meeting.

I have 7+ years of experience building and scaling products and AI-driven systems across high-growth platforms in MENA and APAC, including Careem, foodpanda, and other leading marketplace and logistics platforms such as Uber and Zomato. At Careem, I built a Claude-powered AI agent used daily by a 30-person product team, owned 20+ feature launches across UAE, KSA, and Jordan, and ran 10+ concurrent A/B experiments to improve product performance and decision-making speed. At Food Market Hub, I led the POS product pod end-to-end, shipping offline POS systems, foodcourt modules, and lending integrations that collectively drove $5M+ in GMV impact. Across these roles, I have consistently focused on solving ambiguous, high-friction operational problems and turning them into scalable product solutions with measurable business outcomes, particularly across marketplaces, AI tooling, and fintech-adjacent systems. I am now looking for a Senior Product Manager or Product Operations role in a high-growth company operating at the intersection of AI, marketplace operations, and financial infrastructure.
