I built full-stack GTM functions - from sales architecture and channel partnerships through to product strategy and customer experience - across healthtech and fintech over nine years. Four and a half years at LiveAltlife, a Bangalore healthtech startup, doing exactly that. Joined at an early stage of commercial growth; left with a significantly scaled multi-channel acquisition engine, 75+ institutional partnerships, and a full protein product range in market. The model throughout was subscription-based, which meant retention and customer journey design were as much a part of the job as acquisition. On the revenue side: built three distinct sales systems as the business evolved, and developed a partner network spanning hospitals, diagnostics labs, wellness retreats, corporate wellness providers, and insurance brokers. On the product side: led GTM and distribution across six product variants from a premium diabetes reversal program through to a food-as-medicine brand and a full protein range - with direct input into subscription architecture, operational design, and the customer health experience that drove retention. Before that: originated a ₹40Cr+ ($4.8M) lending book at OfBusiness with sub-1% NPA. At Little Internet (acquired by Paytm), managed the premium merchant vertical as a solo IC - 50%+ of Mumbai city revenue. Most effective where the problem has real complexity - evolving product, multiple channels, subscription economics, and a team to build and lead through it. Open to Head of Sales, Business Development, or Partnerships roles at funded tech companies in UAE, Qatar, or Oman - and at high-growth startups in Bangalore. Primarily Healthtech and Fintech, but sector-agnostic when the problem is right. Also open to fractional GTM engagements.
