NICHOLASOLANIYI
I take products from concept to production, moving between strategy, discovery, and hands-on delivery depending on what the moment needs. I write the specs, run partner discovery, own the roadmap, and get close to engineering when execution is what matters. Most of my recent work is in fintech: multi-tenant SaaS platforms where reliability, partner onboarding, and incident response are part of the daily job. I have managed partner escalations with real financial exposure, defined platform health metrics from scratch, and coordinated fixes across live systems with no room for downtime.
