Mesfin Tesfaye

I’m a product manager at CariSurg, where we’re building an AI-enabled surgical co-pilot for operating rooms that can’t rely on bandwidth. My work there is WHO Surgical Safety Checklist integration, structured perioperative capture, and taking the documentation load off clinicians rather than adding to it.

Before that I spent six years leading design for fintech, education and enterprise platforms — payment apps used by millions of Ethiopians, an LMS that cut applicant screening time by 80%, and an ERP serving clients across the UK. I care about products that hold up under real constraints: low bandwidth, low trust, high stakes.
