About

I’m Serin, with over a decade of experience building, managing, and launching products. I began my career working with early founders to take zero-to-one products from idea to market, defining, building product roadmaps and shaping early traction through our venture studio. In the next phase of my journey, I focused on consumer internet products, leading key verticals from early PMF to scale and hypergrowth. At world-class companies like Zomato and Gojek, I drove massive user expansion, sustainable revenue growth, and profitability at a multi-million scale. My core strengths lie in product-led innovation, execution, team building, and growth. Outside of work, I enjoy being part of product communities and exploring emerging technologies.
