Senior product manager working across the digital product landscape: consumer mobile apps, fintech, AI services, gaming, and platform products built for both global and emerging markets. Comfortable translating complex product and commercial problems into clear roadmaps and actionable decisions for cross-functional teams. Most recently, I drove product and commercial strategy for a live GenAI voice service, where I modelled a hybrid architecture projecting up to ~90% lower per-query compute cost and ~50% lower latency, validated at the product and commercial level.
Comfortable translating ambiguous needs into clear requirements and business cases, then owning delivery through sprints, UAT, and launch. Deep expertise in MNO ecosystems, VAS commercial models, and operator partnership development. Open to fractional engagements (10–20 hrs/week) and full-time remote PM roles, bringing the same rigour and ownership to every client that I applied building platforms used by millions across Pakistan.

0→1 Product·Growth & Monetization·Partnerships & Deals·Financial Modelling·Agile Delivery·Telecom·Fintech·GenAI·Emerging Markets
A repeatable approach, sharpened across telecom, fintech, and GenAI products used by millions.
I start by understanding your users, your market, and the gaps your team hasn't had time to properly investigate.
Most teams build the wrong thing. I make sure we agree on what we're actually solving, and why it matters commercially.
I spec the product clearly: what it does, what it doesn't, and why every decision was made that way.
I don't hand off and disappear. I stay close through build, launch, and the iteration that makes it actually work.

Primarily seeking a full-time remote senior PM role. Fractional engagements remain available alongside.
Full-Time Remote
40 hrs/week · Permanent role
Open to full-time remote PM roles (Senior PM / Lead PM / Principal). Based in Pakistan with strong overlap across EU, MENA, and US East Coast hours. Open to relocation where the role supports it. Able to work with visa sponsorship.
Also available · Fractional PM
10–20 hrs/week · Monthly retainer
For teams that need senior PM expertise but a full-time hire isn't the right move yet. 3-month minimum, with renewal options. Starts with a 2-week trial sprint.
Time Zone & Hours
Pakistan Standard Time (PKT, UTC+5). Available 11:00 AM – 8:00 PM PKT. Comfortable overlap with EU mornings, MENA full days, and US East Coast mornings.
Working Style
Fully remote, owning the work from discovery to delivery. Plug into your existing tools: Slack, Notion, Jira, Linear, ClickUp. Occasional travel for kickoffs or quarterly offsites is workable.
Onboarding
Typically 1–2 weeks from first call to first sprint. For fractional engagements, urgent slots are sometimes available, just ask.
Outcomes, not hours
Every engagement is structured around clearly defined outcomes (roadmaps shipped, products launched, decisions made), not timesheets.
"Need something different? Let's talk. Most engagements can be shaped around your team's needs."
Hiring for a senior product role? I'm seeking full-time remote positions worldwide, with relocation possible for the right opportunity. Fractional and advisory engagements also considered.
