Software Project manager
My Four Pillars for Building Client-centric Software: Foster Collaboration, Streamline Onboarding, Prioritize UX and Adapt to Change.
Steering the Ship
As the Project Manager, my role was to transform this ambitious vision into a reality by orchestrating every aspect of the platform’s development:
Strategic Leadership
I led cross-functional teams across three countries, uniting diverse talents to work toward a common goal.
Agile Expertise
Using Scrum methodology, I ensured smooth collaboration and continuous improvement through iterative development cycles.
Stakeholder Alignment
I worked closely with stakeholders to define priorities, align features with business goals, and ensure that every decision served our clients’ needs.
Balancing Innovation and Compliance
One of the most critical aspects of the project was complying to the stringent regulatory requirements. I collaborated with legal and compliance experts to embed KYC, AML, and GDPR standards to strike a balance between the business operational needs and a user-friendly experience.
A Platform Designed for Modern Finance
