Co-own product decisions for Zobaze's core POS app and Bizli, a lighter entry-level billing app that brings first-time users into the main product. Priorities: retention and premium conversion. I own the loop from discovery to post-launch measurement (problem framing, prioritisation, PRDs and specs, prototyping, tracking events, funnel analysis) and design the solutions myself. • Launched Activity History, a plain-language record of what changed in the shop and when; ~70% of paid accounts now check it 3–4 times a week. Identified the need from a recurring pattern in support conversations (stock mismatches, missing sales, "who did this?") and prioritised it as a retention lever. • Moved ~30% of users to consistent inventory updates with Stock Health Score, a card-swipe model that surfaces only items needing attention, replacing item-by-item forms that owners with 1,000+ SKUs had stopped using. • Bizli: 50,000+ downloads, ~3,000 active users and 1,000–2,000 businesses migrated into the core product. Co-led it from research to launch in one month for micro-retailers not yet ready for a full POS; owned scope, PRD, launch plan and initial ASO. • Run activation experiments through Netcore (onboarding variants, demo vs. no-demo paths, nudges to core actions) with Amplitude funnels on every launch. • Built Zobaze's first design system, reverse-engineered from the codebase into a Material-based token system, and moved its tokens into Android code with the developer. • Prototype and spec with AI tools (Claude Design, Figma Make), shortening the cycle from spec to build.

Early team member. Built the customer-facing functions from scratch and owned early go-to-market execution. • Identified the reseller opportunity, starting with white-label deals and then a commission-based distribution model, and built the program: partner selection, pricing, pitch decks, onboarding, sales playbooks. Onboarded 20 resellers (2 white-label) across 13+ countries in the GCC, Africa and Asia within a year; now an independent revenue vertical run by a sales team. • Built customer success from scratch for users in 180+ countries, covering onboarding workflows, chat automation, a help centre, a full tutorial video library and proactive support via Intercom. This let a 3-person team support a global user base, with most routine questions resolved through self-serve rather than tickets. • Set up the early product-education and acquisition channels (YouTube tutorials, Play Store listing fundamentals, first paid campaigns) before a marketing team was hired, giving the product its first organic growth engine. Contributed to 2M+ downloads, mostly organic. • 1,000+ customer conversations across support, sales and research, the evidence base behind every product decision since.

About

I'm a product builder, product manager and product designer in one at Zobaze Technologies, a B2B billing and POS SaaS used in 180+ countries. I started in customer success, built the company's reseller channel across 13 countries, and moved into product when it became obvious that the person who had talked to 1,000+ customers should have a say in what gets built. That's still what I believe: you can't decide what to build for people you haven't sat with. Every feature I've shipped started in a review, a support call or a shop visit before it became a spec. Two examples — Activity History, now used by ~70% of paid accounts every week, and Stock Health Score, which moved ~30% of users to consistent stock updates. A pattern I've noticed in myself: I tend to start the things nobody assigned. The reseller channel, the company's first design system, a companion app that hit 50k downloads each began as "someone should do this," and then I did. I build with AI so the production work is fast and my time goes to the decisions: what to solve, what to cut, whether it worked. If you're building a product where the hard part is getting real users to adopt it, I'd like to hear how you're approaching it.
