About
I'm Metin, a senior product manager with 10+ years building digital products, the last 6+ owning them end to end.
I work on systems people only notice when they break: validator infrastructure, regulated health apps, lending platforms, telco customer platforms.
My strength is translation. I take complex technical work and make it clear enough that legal, sales or leadership have no questions left. I'm usually the glue between teams that don't normally work together.
What I'm looking for
Senior PM or PM Lead roles at well-run companies in crypto infrastructure or healthtech. Remote-first; open to relocating within the EU, UK or Switzerland (EU citizen).
