// Mission

Riaktr developed AI-powered analytics products for telecom operators to optimize their distribution networks and revenue. Their software addressed two major questions: how to optimize network CAPEX investments and how to optimize sales & distribution operations. As a Consultant, I was responsible for deploying these solutions across diverse markets with varying levels of infrastructure maturity.

// Tech & Product Impact

This role shaped my ability to deliver AI-powered products in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. Working across three continents taught me to adapt technical solutions to wildly different operational realities — from infrastructure gaps in Sub-Saharan Africa to regulatory nuances in the Middle East.
