Sumeet Pandhare — Product Manager
Product designer with a strong engineering foundation, experienced in leading end-to-end design across SaaS platforms, 0→1 products, growth initiatives, design systems, and UX writing. My unique mix of design intuition and technical fluency allows me to go beyond pixels. I ship real, scalable experiences. I’ve built and launched Figma plugins, contributed with production-ready code, and am currently developing an indie aurora tracking app from the ground up. I thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments, especially when building from scratch. Whether it’s scaling user growth, designing complex payout flows, or creating career tools that change lives, I’m driven by work that creates real-world outcomes. Selected Highlights: • Led design for 4 zero-to-one products at two high-growth startups • Co-designed the Marks app (1.3M+ downloads, 300K+ MAUs) • Enabled 60K+ students to get into their dream universities • Helped 300+ professionals transition into product roles • Increased monthly revenue by $6K+ through a single growth initiative • Won the best AR (augmented reality) experience award by Facebook • Ranked #2 Rising Designer by Upraised (out of 50,000+ designers) • Taught 200+ students Figma and AI tools at the University of Michigan Recently completed a graduate degree at the University of Michigan (on a $50,000 merit scholarship), focusing on Human Behavior and UX Research, deepening my ability to design with impact.
