Analyst
Sql, Java, Solidity, Analysis, Management, Blockchain
Seasoned finance-tech professional with 20+ years as a hands-on backend Java/Unix developer and technical team leader in tier-1 investment banks, combined with 3 years running my own crypto portfolio as an independent investor. I spent two decades designing and delivering data warehouses, regulatory platforms, and back-office systems while leading distributed multilingual teams through every phase of the SDLC, I know exactly how complex financial software is architected, built, and shipped.
Since 2022 I stepped away to manage my own portfoli full-time: long-term Bitcoin 4-year-cycle conviction plus systematic stablecoin/DeFi yield strategies on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and Solana, with all monitoring and execution tools built by myself in Python.
After three rewarding but solitary years, I’m ready for my next chapter: I’m looking for a technical Product Manager / Senior Product Manager / Head of Product (in a smaller team) role at fintech, crypto-native firms, neobanks, market-making companies, or forward-thinking asset managers.
What excites me most is being the PM who still loves the technical trenches: writing specs that engineers respect on day one, debating architecture trade-offs, reviewing data models, and translating real trading/risk/compliance needs into systems that scale, all while keeping the product vision sharp and the user experience world-class. I speak fluent engineering and fluent on-chain/DeFi, and I genuinely enjoy being the bridge between tech teams and the business.
I’m financially independent and not chasing the highest paycheck, I’m optimizing for an inspiring vision, a kind and high-caliber team, and an environment where we can build things that matter together.
Based in Thailand (GMT+7), fully open to remote, hybrid for the right opportunity. Immediately available and genuinely excited to join brilliant people again.
