Abid Aboobaker is a product-focused technology leader and founder with 12 years of experience building consumer fintech and creator-economy platforms from early product-market fit to scale. As Co-Founder of Scoop in Dubai he’s creating an AI operating system for influencer marketing that turns creator chaos into programmatic clarity, following a track record of leading product, tech and design teams at ZestMoney where he helped quintuple the loan book and scale the consumer app to millions of monthly users. He combines hands-on UX and engineering roots with strategic leadership—hiring and growing 70+ cross-functional team members and overseeing 100+ microservices and major cost optimizations. Also running a small product studio, he pairs a builder’s curiosity with a founder’s pragmatism, often teaming up with other entrepreneurs to solve high-leverage problems. Unusually for a product executive, his background in journalism and local news engineering informs a strong focus on user research, storytelling and resilient system design.
