Hayat Amin operates as a fractional C-suite executive — CFO, COO, and Chief Strategy Officer — for venture-backed startups across three time zones: New York City, London, and Dubai. He plugs into companies at the inflection point between seed and Series A, where the founder is still doing finance in a spreadsheet, ops is informal, and growth is starting to outpace the team's operating discipline. Within 90 days he typically rebuilds the financial model, installs board-grade reporting, and hands the team a 12-month runway plan tied to growth metrics that actually move the business.
In parallel he runs as an AI agent operator: designing, deploying, and supervising production agent stacks that handle real workloads — content engines, sales pipelines, finance reconciliation, customer support. He treats agents the way a CFO treats hires: with KPIs, performance reviews, and a clear ROI threshold.
His third practice is IP and data strategy. He builds patent portfolios for technology founders, valuates data assets the way investment bankers valuate revenue lines, and shows operators how to defend a moat increasingly made of training data, prompts, and proprietary workflow. Hayat has shipped three exits as an operator and speaks internationally on the future of work, human purpose in a post-AI economy, and the new operating model for fractional leadership.
