About Me

Hey, I'm Saksham

I'm a product builder who turns ideas into working software. Not decks. Not wireframes. Real products that real people use.

My superpower? Speed without sacrificing quality. I combine product thinking, technical fluency, and modern AI/no-code tools to ship MVPs in weeks, not months.

I've built CRMs managing 100,000+ learners, automated workflows saving 60+ hours weekly, and products serving thousands of users. Started by building a 25 lacs+ revenue business with a team of 15 while in college. I want to work with organizations to build solutions that solve real-world problems.

My Journey

How I Got Here

The short version of a winding path. From building a business in college to becoming a product manager who ships.

College Years2019-2023

Built Business in College While Studying Engineering

The Entrepreneurial Foundation
Started B.Tech in Electronics & Communication at AKGEC in August 2019. Spent first year doing what most engineering students do: attending classes, complaining about curriculum, wondering what comes next. In 2019, I stopped wondering and started building. I built Articuleren in Dec 2019 with one clear mission: bring Model UN and debate culture to tier 2/3 colleges that never got these opportunities. Scaled it to serve 100,000+ students across 25+ colleges. Built a team of 15, generated 25+ lacs revenue. This wasn't a side project. It was a real business run alongside my degree. I attended classes in the morning and ran the business in the evening.

Key Learnings

"Building is easier than sustaining. Revenue is validation. Team quality matters more than team size."

First Internship2022

Newton School - Learning Product at Scale

The First Real Job
Final year of college. Wanted to understand how products worked at scale, not just events and operations. Landed an internship at Newton School. Joined as an intern working on growth and operations. Saw how EdTech products worked at real scale. Thousands of students, complex learning pathways, and operational challenges that couldn't be solved with hustle alone. My performance led to a PPO (Pre-Placement Offer).

Key Learnings

"How real product companies operate. Processes, frameworks, and metrics matter. I realized I loved being close to the product—building it, not just growing it."

First Product Role2023

OneDigiStore - Finally Becoming a Product Manager

The Product Breakthrough
Graduated in 2023. Had a job offer from Newton School but wanted to do Product Management, not operations. Taken a bet and joined OneDigiStore as my first real Product Manager. High ownership from day one. Sink or swim. I chose to swim. Led product development across e-commerce and digital solutions. But reality hit hard: I wasn't technical. I couldn't estimate effort. I underestimated complexity. So I stopped faking it. I sat with engineers, learned basics (databases, APIs, architecture), and became technical enough to have real conversations about trade-offs.

Key Learnings

"Product management isn't about having all answers. It's about asking the right questions and making informed trade-offs."

Freelance PeriodEarly 2025

Testing If I Could Pull It Off Solo

The Solo Experiment
Left OneDigiStore early 2025. Needed to test myself: Could I build products solo? Started taking freelance projects. Helped startups with product strategy, built MVPs for founders, and automated workflows for agencies. The Discovery: Modern tools changed everything. AI (Claude, GPT-4), no-code (Bubble, Retool), and automation (n8n) meant I could build and ship products that would normally require a full dev team.

Key Learnings

"Speed is a competitive advantage. Validation before building saves months. I enjoyed building more than managing."

NowMid 2025 - Present

NavGurukul - Freedom to Build and Experiment

The Builder Phase
Currently working at NavGurukul, a non-profit building accessible tech education. Chose it for mission, ownership, and freedom. Managing products serving thousands of learners. Built an internal CRM handling 100,000+ students. Shipped AI-powered adaptive assessments. Automated operations saving 60+ hours weekly. I use n8n, Lovable, Cursor, and Supabase to ship fast. I don't wait for resources; I build, validate, and scale. Continuously learning and deepening my skills in AI-driven product building—exploring how modern AI tools can accelerate the entire product lifecycle from ideation to deployment.

Key Learnings

"Best products come from deeply understanding problems, not building cool features. Small teams with modern tools can punch way above their weight. AI is not just a feature—it's a fundamental shift in how we build."

The Pattern I See Now

"I'm a builder who happens to do product management. Not a PM who occasionally ships. There's a difference."

Articuleren taught me to build. Newton School taught me scale. OneDigiStore taught me management. Freelancing taught me modern tools.

I don't just write specs. I prototype, validate, build, and ship. That's what gets me up in the morning.
