Hire the Best Business Planning & Strategy Freelancers
in Egypt

With 7+ years as an independent freelancer—backed by 2,300+ logged hours, Top-Rated Plus (Top 3%), and 120+ successfully delivered projects on Upwork—I’ve helped 15 SaaS founders and entrepreneurs bring their vision to life by managing the full product lifecycle from idea to launch. As a Senior Agile Business Analyst and Product Manager for SaaS, B2B, and B2C products, I help founders build their vision from 0 → 1 by defining and managing requirements, backlogs, roadmaps, and prioritization (MoSCoW); delivering user research, competitive analysis, market research, user journeys, wireframes, user stories, and acceptance criteria; and more. Then, I move into QA Analyst work to test and validate releases against requirements and specifications. This includes creating test cases and edge cases, reporting bugs, running cross-platform testing (web, iOS, Android), and performing UAT, functional, UX, and performance testing. Finally, I move into technical writing, creating API documentation, building knowledge bases with AI chatbot integration, writing release notes, user guides, and how-to articles, designing annotated screenshots with callouts, and producing demo and walkthrough videos. As a T-shaped engineer with a primary role as an Agile Business Analyst and Product Manager, plus experience as a QA Analyst and Technical Writer, I’m confident I can help you with the following: 🧰 MAIN ROLE: Senior Agile Business Analyst | SaaS & B2B Product Manager ● Business Analysis & Planning: Understand your idea and high-level requirements.

Create the backlog. Draft user stories, acceptance criteria, business rules, prioritization, validations, and data mapping. Create UX wireframes and sketches, and map user flows and journeys. ● Requirements Engineering & Designing: Designing UML diagrams (use case, sequence, activity, context, ERD, DFD), BPMN (levels 1-3), and flowcharts. Support architecture engineers by creating technical and cloud architecture diagrams. Draft high-level and low-level design documents. ✍️ T-SHAPED ROLE: Technical Writer | API Documentation | Knowledge Bases | Walkthrough & Demo Videos ● Technical Writing & Documentation: Write API and developer documentation using a docs-as-code approach (Mintlify, ReadMe, GitBook, etc.). Build knowledge bases and help centers (Intercom, Notion, GitBook, MkDocs, etc.), including AI chatbot integrations. Create how-to articles, user guides, and release notes in weeks, not months. ● Walkthrough & Demo Videos: Create screencasts, feature demos, and walkthrough videos with AI voiceover, callouts, screen recording, on-screen text, and zoom effects. 🪲 T-SHAPED ROLE: QA Analyst | Test Engineer ● QA vs Requirements Validation: Validate new releases against requirements 1:1, flag mismatches, draft AI-assisted test cases to cover gaps, create UAT test plans, and share them with the dev team. ● Manual & Cross-Platform Testing: Perform manual, cross-platform testing across iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, and web (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, Brave). Draft AI-assisted test cases and create bug reports (Sequence ID, Title, Description, Priority, Test Status, Progress Status, Test Steps, Expected Result, Screenshots/Recorded Videos). ⚒️ My Tools I use Notion, Jira, Trello, Confluence, Asana, Azure DevOps, ClickUp, Monday, Slack, Miro, Figma, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Draw io, Lucidchart, Visio, FigJam, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Swagger, ReadMe, GitBook, Intercom, MkDocs, Nextra, and Fumadocs.

Most founders I talk to don't have a "finance problem." They have a clarity problem. The numbers are somewhere — in spreadsheets, in the accountant's reports, in their head — but nobody's pulling it all together into something they can actually decide from. That's where I come in. I'm Salah, and finance has been my world for the last 10 years. I currently lead Group FP&A for a holding company with five businesses across Saudi Arabia and Egypt — consulting firms, tech companies, the works. Every month, I'm the person the executives turn to when they need to know what's really going on, what to do about it, and what it means for next quarter. On Upwork, I do the same thing for founders and SMEs who don't have a senior finance person yet — but need one. Here's what that usually looks like: You hand me a messy folder of bank statements, invoices, and half-finished spreadsheets — and a few weeks later you've got a financial model you can show investors, a forecast you actually trust, or a dashboard that tells you what's working before it's too late to fix. Some of the things I've built recently: A scenario model for a holding group — the kind of file where you change one assumption and watch three years of P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow update across seven tabs. A live financial dashboard that pulls together five different entities into one view, so the leadership team stops arguing about whose numbers are right. A three-statement model with over 2,300 linked formulas — every line traceable, every total reconciled. The kind of file an investor's analyst can't poke holes in. What I actually help with: Building budgets and rolling forecasts that don't fall apart in month two. Putting together fundraising models that hold up under investor scrutiny. Setting up dashboards in Excel, Power BI, or custom HTML when off-the-shelf tools don't cut it. Cleaning up the chart of accounts before it becomes a real problem. And often — just being the senior finance brain a founder can call when they need to think something through. A few honest things about working with me: I'm not the cheapest finance freelancer on Upwork, and I won't pretend to be. But I do this work at a senior level every day in my full-time role, so you're getting the same quality of thinking your investors expect — without paying for a full-time CFO. I work in English and Arabic. I know the GCC market. I respond quickly, and if I think a project isn't a good fit for me, I'll tell you straight rather than waste your time. If you've got a model that needs building, a forecast that needs fixing, or you just want a senior finance person to look at your numbers and tell you what they actually mean — send me a message. Tell me what you're working on. I'll let you know honestly whether I'm the right person and how I'd tackle it.

🎩 I wear a lot of hats, and that's the point. Across early-stage startups, freelancing, and enterprise platforms, I've owned operations, strategy, and delivery in SaaS, Marketplace, and eCommerce for 10+ years. That range is why I can walk into an unfamiliar mess and find its structure quickly. Founders bring me in when something's broken, unclear, or growing faster than the team can handle and nobody knows who owns it, usually the unprogrammed, cross-functional P0s that don't fit a playbook. I figure out how the system actually works, where it breaks, and how to fix it for good, then I build the strategy and structure so it holds. 🧭 How I work I start lean. Simple processes designed for their intended audience, then I watch how people actually use them and fix from there, instead of burning weeks on a plan that breaks the moment it meets reality. I solve problems on their merit, not by forcing them through a rigid system. A process works when it hits its goal; that's the only test, so I don't bolt on tools it doesn't need. I use AI deliberately across my work: NotebookLM to cut through information overload, Snowflake Cortex to find the right tables faster while validating its output, ChatGPT for quick drafts, and Claude to build plugins that automate my workflow. And I stay data-driven the whole way: separate what's working from what isn't, then figure out how the data takes us further. 🎯 Strategy & ownership 🧠 Own the operating model: how work flows, who owns what, and how decisions get made as you scale 📊 Build the KPI and reporting layer that drives real-time decisions, not vanity metrics 🧭 Translate where the business is going into what operations and the team needs to get there 🤝 Act as the accountable operator who takes a problem off the founder's plate and owns the outcome ⚙️ Operations & solutions 🔧 Map unfamiliar systems and fix what's broken, fast, including live on enterprise client calls with zero prep 🔗 Connect Product, Engineering, Legal, Sales, and Customer Success so decisions get made instead of stalling 📉 Turn operational chaos into a structured, repeatable process that the team can run without me 👥 Lead and coach distributed teams across regions, balancing delivery, reviews, and stakeholders 🤖 AI, automation & data 💬 Cut support volume and cost by mapping the user journey, rewriting flows, and shipping product enhancements so issues resolve instead of escalating ⚡ Automate repetitive manual work so it runs without a human 🧮 Work at the data level to debug systems, validate methodology, and surface what others miss, turning raw data into root causes and retention drivers 📈 Growth & scaling 🚀 Own product lifecycle from discovery to MVP to launch (grew a SaaS product to 1,300+ active users and 25,000+ sessions through organic adoption) 📦 Scale eCommerce operations end-to-end (took a store from ~$3K to ~$70K monthly revenue and 2K to 60K+ SKUs, including clean migration of 150K+ records) 📋 Delivery, onboarding & client calls 📞 Run live client calls and solve problems in real time 🎓 Facilitate customer-facing workshops, training, and meetings 🤝 Handle complex pre-sales and customer success cases I currently lead Premium Support at Upwork, looking after its highest-value enterprise customers, so I know what good looks like at scale, and the work I love most is building it inside growing companies.

I work across APAC, US, EU, and MENA time zones and am comfortable leading the room and asking the right questions to quickly get a clear picture. I look forward to e-meeting you! Mo
