Ahmed Al-Nuaim

Associate Product Manager at Vrtx

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

I like being close to the work: deciding what to build, challenging ideas, and getting into how a product actually works.

At Vrtx, a fintech in Riyadh, I work on mobile, web and developer-facing products, from requirements and prototypes through engineering and testing before launch. Before that I worked in digital governance and operational technology at Aramco, and led student and developer communities.

Outside work I'm usually experimenting with something new or building a product of my own.
