I build and scale complex digital ecosystems — fintech platforms, enterprise PMOs, AI programmes, and national-scale payment infrastructure. Based in Istanbul, Türkiye; open to relocation or remote roles across the GCC and Europe. Over 10+ years I've led cross-functional programmes across Canada, Iraq, China, and Turkey, delivering products and transformation initiatives in regulated, fast-moving environments where execution, governance, and strategic alignment all have to hold at once. Recent programmes I've led: — Iraq's first airline co-branded Mastercard (QiCard × Mastercard × Turkish Airlines) — led end-to-end as Programme Manager and Product Owner, from commercial negotiation through launch and post-launch operations. — Built QiCard's Enterprise PMO from zero: governance frameworks, delivery processes, a 13-person team, and a 25% improvement in delivery predictability in year one. — Led AI and smart device programmes embedded at Meta (via Applause) across Smartwatch, Oculus, and Smart Glasses, improving execution efficiency 20% across complex, multi-vendor product cycles. — Directed SuperQi, a national-scale fintech super-app, from concept to MVP — mobile, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and a multi-vendor delivery team. I work across digital transformation, fintech and payment ecosystems, PMO leadership, product delivery, and AI programmes — and I'm comfortable doing it across cultures: I work daily in Arabic, English, Turkish, and Mandarin. Open to Programme/Portfolio Management, Product Management, Fintech & Payments, and Technology Strategy leadership roles.

How to Answer "Tell Me About Yourself" in an Interview "Tell me about yourself." It's one of the most common interview questions, yet many candidates struggle to answer it clearly. A simple structure can help: 1. Present: Explain your current role, professional background, or main area of expertise. 2. Past: Highlight one or two relevant experiences or achievements. 3. Future: Explain why you're interested in this opportunity and how it connects to your career goals. For example: "I'm a project coordinator with experience supporting cross-functional teams, tracking project milestones, and managing stakeholder communication. In my previous work, I helped organize project activities and improve follow-up processes. I'm now looking for an opportunity where I can take on greater responsibility and contribute to delivering business results." Adapt the answer to your actual experience. You don't need to memorize a long speech or list everything you've ever done. Keep your answer focused, relevant, and natural. Discussion question: Which interview question do you find the most difficult to answer?
