As a Techno-Functional Architect and Product Leader, I drive the design and delivery of next-gen financial ecosystems that power the future of digital finance. Currently working at Liquid Group, a fast-paced fintech innovator, I bring the rigor of enterprise banking and the agility of startups to build AI-enabled, API-first platforms that redefine how payments and financial services are delivered.With over 10 years of professional experience across global banks and fintechs in 10+ countries, I’ve led large-scale digital transformation initiatives, implemented ISO 20022 modernization, and built intelligent, scalable systems for payments, compliance, cash management, and regulatory solutions. I am a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) with a Master of Technology degree in Computer Science.My approach is both strategic and hands-on—I lead cross-functional teams across the full product lifecycle, from discovery and architecture to execution and optimization. I specialize in embedded finance, AI/ML-driven payment systems, and customer-centric product development that delivers real-world business value.Whether modernizing legacy infrastructure or launching greenfield platforms, I’m passionate about creating solutions that not only solve problems but also unlock new business models and growth opportunities in the evolving digital finance ecosystem.
