Co-Founder

Jul 2025Present · 10 mos · San Jose, CA

  • There are mainly 6 methods today to screen + shortlist tech candidates -- phone screens, coding tests, take-homes, DSAs, pair-programming, AI-interview tools, etc. -- the obvious ones.
  • Still, tech leaders (at software development companies, small engg teams, etc.) have all sorts of problems --
  • spend 30% of time on hiring activities
  • time from job-to-hire is still 4-6 weeks on average
  • hire people who look good on profile, yet fail on the job
  • no way to identify how a person thinks and works -- makes judgements, how they use AI, can they explain their choices/trade-offs, ask about constraints, walkthrough examples, etc.
  • Our product Utkrusht introduced a new (and first) “watch-them-work” assessment method where -
  • candidates solve, debug, build, and deploy real engg on-the-job tasks in live production environments,
  • you also see HOW candidates actually think -- decide, take a messy and ambiguous problem, figure out, solve it end-to-end, code hygiene, and then ship something real, live in action (use AI if they want) -- not just what they claim on resumes
  • This accuracy, depth, and structured thought process of their approach to solve these tasks identifies your Top 5-10 out of 100s of resumes you could have.
  • Result: you hire strong candidates in less than 7 days, in 1/10th of your current cost, and spend like 1 hour of your/ team's time -- every single time.
  • Want to see how "Watch-them-Work" tasks look like? Send me a DM, and I can send you the link.

Zaminu

Owner

Apr 2020Dec 2021 · 1 yr 8 mos · Remote

  • Covid happened, and everyone’s lives went for a toss. Lots of uncertainties, financial stress, and unpredictability about the future
  • I didn’t want to leave it to luck. I fundamentally believe in having the discipline of doing the hard work
  • So, took up the challenge and started Zaminu, a bootstrapped and niche GTM agency for SaaS companies wanting to reach the milestone from 0 to $1M ARR, launched in the middle of Covid, and achieved results like -
  • Acquired 15 high-ticket clients (growth stage b2b technology companies) within 18 months, hustled via multiple channels (outreach, partnerships, LinkedIn inbound, content marketing, community building, etc.), only used $0 marketing strategies
  • Launched, activated, and executed new lead acquisition channels for these b2b companies who solely relied on 1-2 channels before
  • Channels activated included - email newsletters, influencer collaborations, outbound, SEO, referral campaigns, webinars, copywriting, homepage/landing page optimisations
  • Developed value propositions, unique selling points about the product, messaging that resonates with target audience, and applied these across multi-channel campaigns and sales collateral to drive new leads, signups/demo meetings, and sales opportunities
  • Results varied depending on the nature and stage of the company, but broadly achieved anywhere between a 30-60% leads' growth and ~35-50% ARR growth for clients

  • 3) wasn't able to dedicate my full available time and resources on it
