Based in Dubai, UAE

AI Product Manager.
I build AI agents & LLM products.

10+ years taking products from zero to scale across B2C and B2B — 3× MAU and 2.8× revenue at Mashkor, 0 → AED 2M at Dash Capital. These days I build AI agents that work in production, ship growth systems that compound, and follow where AI and crypto are taking the next decade.

What I do

The intersection of building AI products, scaling startups, and investing.

⚙️

Build AI Products & Agents

I love the craft of product — and these days I build AI agents that work in production: conversational, research, and ops-automation agents, with the guardrails and evals that make them reliable. I own the full lifecycle.

📈

Scale Startups

Growth is a system, not a hack. I build the engines — experimentation culture, data-driven funnels, cross-functional alignment — that compound over time.

🚀

Angel Invest

I invest in things I believe in and use — AI, Web3, community-driven businesses. Portfolio: xAI, GrowthX, WorldMobile, Worldcoin.

✍️

Write & Experiment

I write about product, growth, and building with AI. I've built and run AI agents in production — real experiments that keep me sharp on data and systems thinking.
