Problem Statement

Airwallex is a global fintech experiencing rapid customer growth across multiple markets. As acquisition scaled quickly, the business wanted to shift toward a self-serve model, reducing dependency on sales and enabling customers to onboard, activate, and discover products independently. This required building a complete lifecycle and CRM foundation from scratch — including data triggers, segmentation logic, onboarding flows, product adoption journeys, experimentation frameworks, and multi-channel campaigns.

JR scaled Airwallex’s lifecycle program from the ground up, building global CRM foundations and data-driven journeys that significantly improved activation and product adoption. He was proactive, strategic, and consistently delivered high-impact lifecycle work across teams. A pleasure to work with.
