Bio
🌿Nael El Shawwa
Raheem joined us at a time when we were embarking on a major initiative to re-imagine how brands, contributors and our internal teams worked together to create on-demand visuals. Raheem had much to learn about product management 3 years ago and through his dedication to the mission, hard work, an open mind and his inquisitive nature he has grown into a strong product leader that understands the business he's in and also an excellent engineering partner during this time. Raheem's background rooted in customer growth and success has helped the team stay relentlessly focused on the customer and navigate between many competing priorities and the various stakeholder needs that anybody working in product management is familiar with. His ability to build strong relationships across the organization and with our customers was extremely valuable for our team and the business. It was a pleasure having Raheem as my counterpart over the last three years and am very proud of what we accomplished together. If you get the chance, I also recommend you take that opportunity to learn or work with him!

Raheem is a passionate, smart and very creative product manager. He has strong business acumen, moves easily between the strategic and the tactical and is relentlessly focused on the customer. I have worked with him directly on product vision, roadmaps and business cases for new products and features. He is a natural leader, a fabulous team player and a strong manager. He has a great sense of humor and, while he works intensely, he has fun doing it! Raheem is a pleasure to work with and I hope our paths cross again!
