Building at Startup
About
I'm Sankalp Phadnis, currently building at a startup where I'm working on writelemma.com. My career started with engineering internships at Siemens and Colgate-Palmolive, then I spent over four years at Groww progressing from Associate Product Manager to Product Manager. I'm passionate about product management and startup building, and I recently open-sourced my previous project Zarie after it didn't achieve product-market fit. I'm always looking to connect with others in the startup and product space to explore mutual opportunities.
