About Charlie Product Labs

Charlie Product Labs is a personal product consulting portfolio specializing in fintech innovation, AI integration, and enterprise SaaS. My mission is to help companies build exceptional digital products that deliver real business value through independent consulting services.

My Story

Charlie Product Labs started from the belief that exceptional products require both strategic vision and technical excellence. After years of leading product development at high-growth startups and working with enterprise clients, I recognized a gap in the market for independent consulting that combines deep technical expertise with proven product strategy.

My experience spans fintech innovations, AI implementations, and enterprise software solutions across Southeast Asia and beyond. I've seen firsthand what separates successful products from those that struggle to find market fit.

Today, I work with companies ranging from early-stage startups to established enterprises, helping them navigate the complex landscape of modern product development.
