Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYousuf Sohail is an Engineering Manager with 13+ years of hands-on product engineering experience, now leading the Consumer Experience Squad at Cashia to build payments infrastructure across Africa. He brings rare depth from shipping consumer apps at scale—10M+ users at Delivery Hero and 1M+ at Airlift—plus platform work spanning card issuance, BNPL, enterprise Android and location systems. Promoted internally from Lead after seven months, he combines architecture instincts with practical delivery: feature-flag frameworks, KMM-based feature modules, and release trains that make shipping predictable. He’s equally focused on people growth—weekly 1:1s, clear paths, and removing team friction—and on improving developer velocity with AI-assisted workflows. A pragmatic Android aficionado and polyglot tinkerer, he’s known for turning blockers into mockable interfaces and negotiating APIs early to de-risk launches. Based in Dubai and building remote teams across Nairobi and Dubai, he prefers codebases that stay healthy under pressure and processes that serve engineers, not the other way around.
