Hi, I’m Iss — founder, software engineer and entrepreneur

SCROLL

I enjoy chatting with founders and teams about whatever is slowing them down, whether that's automating a workflow, making a tech decision, or figuring out what to ship next.

I spend most of my time helping founders and small teams cut through the manual work that's quietly eating their hours, and thinking through the product and tech decisions that come with building. I don't claim to be an expert; I've simply been in enough of these situations to know what to look for.

I co-founded three startups: Portalys, a peer-to-peer ticketing platform with over $1M in processed sales; Artsights, a data platform for the Middle East art market; and Après Ski, a community app for mountain enthusiasts.

Alongside my own ventures, I work at Trigger.dev, where I help developers build and ship AI-powered workflows, and have contracted on multiple startup products, helping teams with everything from MVP architecture to growth strategy. My experience spans tech, design, marketing, and ops.

I can get it done for you or we can just jam on it :)
