Saidur Khan

I work where strategy turns into process. Over nearly thirteen years at Upwork, I launched the brand in Bangladesh, built a global customer data program, and moved into revenue operations. Today, I’m on the Deal Desk at Lifted, an Upwork company, and I build small software products on the side.

How I work

Clean workflows, strong controls and clear communication let teams move faster without giving up quality.

That idea has carried through a market launch, a customer data operations unit spread across time zones, a global lead generation team, and now enterprise deal governance in Salesforce CPQ.

Outside work, I serve in Junior Chamber International, where I am an honorary lifetime Senator and have held leadership roles in its Dhaka chapters.
