Building an AI product is easy to start. Deciding what it should do, where its authority ends and how to know it works is the harder conversation. I’m Ahmad, a UAE-based Product Lead at Open Innovation AI. My work centres on enterprise AI agents, product strategy, governance and evaluations. I help product people turn a broad AI ambition into a clear problem, useful evidence and a practical next step. Bring a real question. We can work through: • AI product strategy: the user problem, priorities and what to test first. • Agent governance: identity, permissions, human oversight and evidence at the point of action. • Evaluations: what success means, which failures matter and what a trace can actually tell you. • Product careers: interview practice, positioning and clearer stories about your work. Every product, AI or otherwise, ends up in human hands. That is where I start. Outside work, I play violin, love Vivaldi, and make time for cricket, squash and table tennis. My reading moves between product management, psychology and Rumi. Explore my writing: https://mahmadafzal.com Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mahfzal/
