I believe that people can truly build amazing things if our intentions are honest and we stay passionate towards a common goal. I've found my reasons for living - to give back to our society, to gain different experiences, and thereby seek inner peace by doing both of these things. I try to make every decision in my life and professional career aligned with these reasons. Along with my full time job as a Product Manager, I co-founded and run a community for thousands of creators. I also mentor young PMs to improve their craft. I practice Ikigai, live a minimalist life and make efforts to reverse climate change. Work summary: * 4 years of Product Management experience in solving user problems & launching consumer facing mobile apps on Android, iOS and Web. Ex-founder of an ed-tech startup. * Excellence in 0-1 products as well as managed products with 300 million monthly active users & $3 million in revenue. * Industry experience in IoT, Telecom, Edtech, B2B SaaS and e-commerce. * Co-Founded a 7000+ member community for creators. Startup Mentor at Newchip Accelerator. I am available for a conversation on LinkedIn chat and on email at utkarsh.hired@gmail.com
