Hayat Amin is a tech CFO and strategist and AI agent operator with twenty years inside high-growth technology. He has been on the operator side of three exits (including to American Express and TripAdvisor) and put three businesses on the Financial Times FT100 fastest-growing list. He operates fractionally across New York, London, and Dubai.

Where is Hayat Amin based?

Hayat Amin operates from three cities: New York, London, and Dubai. Engagements are remote-first with quarterly on-site weeks scheduled around the client's board cycle.

What does Hayat Amin do?

Hayat Amin runs two services fractionally: the tech CFO and strategist function during fundraises and exits, which includes IP and data strategy that prices intangibles and turns them into revenue; and AI agent operations that embed processes, automations, AI agents, agentic workflows, and real-time reporting into the business with measurable P&L impact.

How is Hayat Amin different from other fractional CFOs?

Most fractional CFOs are accountants with a senior title. Hayat Amin is an operator who has sat in the buyer's seat on three exits. The data-room build, diligence Q&A responses, and valuation defence look like what an acquirer expects to see. That gap is usually worth 15 to 30% of exit multiple.
