About Benjamin

Product & Operations Leader with 10+ years building and scaling Web3 and AI companies.

I've founded, operated, and exited multiple crypto ventures — raising $5M+, scaling to 700+ B2B clients, and navigating 2 successful acquisitions (UpBots, SuperBots in 2024).

As COO at Monetum, I rebuilt their crypto-banking platform from strategy to hands-on execution — developing DeFi integrations (0x Protocol, Enso Finance, Alchemy), building AI-powered tools, and leading cross-functional teams.

What I bring:
✅ Strategic vision (CEO/Founder perspective)
✅ Operational excellence (COO experience: P&L, teams, go-to-market)
✅ Technical execution (I code AI apps and integrate blockchain protocols)

This tri-level capability means I can define strategy in boardrooms, optimize operations, and ship features in code — all in the same engagement.

Recent projects (hands-on):
• Flowo (getflowo.com) — AI calendar & task manager I built from scratch
• Monetum Dashboard 2.0 — DeFi integrations with 0x, Enso, Alchemy
• AI CRM 360 — Business intelligence platform
• Financial analysis tools — Transaction classifier for enterprises

Expertise:
🔹 Web3/DeFi: Protocol integrations, tokenomics, crypto-banking, institutional digital assets
🔹 AI Development: Production apps using OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor | Python, Node.js
🔹 Product Leadership: Roadmap, execution, go-to-market, team scaling
🔹 Operations: Fundraising, M&A navigation, P&L management

Available for:
• Fractional or Full-time COO/CPO
• Full time Product strategy & development (Web3, AI, Fintech)
• Strategic consulting (fundraising prep, M&A, go-to-market)
• Technical project leadership
