Nine years delivering cross-functional programs across fintech, telecoms and enterprise platforms — stablecoin treasury and payment rails at Flutterwave, a developer platform for 500+ engineers at BT, a nineteen-country release train at MTN.
From a dashboard preference toggle to multi-chain auto-settlement across eight new fiat currencies — core engineering, merchant platform and compliance run as one delivery track through V1 and into V2.
Merchants fund balances in stablecoin and settle cross-border in minutes. The integration also unlocked a $5M credit facility.

Where it lives
Nine years, six organisations
Payments is the deep end, but the pattern is older than that: take a program with too many moving parts and too little slack, give it an operating model, and report the truth about it every week.

A working record across all six organisations. Filter by domain, and open any entry for what it was and what it changed.
How I run a program
01
An operating model before a plan
Intake, prioritisation, decision rights and a reporting rhythm, agreed first. Plans change; the model keeps the program legible when they do.
02
The critical path, out loud
Dependencies mapped across squads and vendors, risks raised early with a mitigation attached, escalation treated as a working tool rather than a failure.
03
Audit-ready at pace
Change governance, release readiness, go/no-go and rollback documented as the work happens — so regulated launches need no archaeology afterwards.
04
Observability in the definition of done
Monitoring, fallbacks and failover belong to launch scope, not a follow-up ticket. Payment programs are judged on the bad day, not the good one.
05
One honest status
The same picture for the squad and the steering committee. Executives get position, risk and ask — not a colour that has drifted from the code.
06
Compounding process
Retrospectives that produce changes, documentation standards that survive handover, delivery frameworks the next program can inherit.
Open to technical program management roles and consulting engagements — delivery operating models, PMO setup, and recovery of programs that have drifted.
