## Headline

Builder at the Intersection of AI Systems & Growth

## About

Most startups don't fail because the product was bad\. They fail because the product was built in one room and the market was left in another\. Early\-stage teams hire engineers who can't talk to customers\. They hire marketers who can't read a codebase\. The result? Beautiful products with empty user dashboards\. GTM decks that never reach the people who matter\. I've watched this pattern destroy traction at companies that deserved to win\. I'm Kshitiz — a product operator who builds and ships AI systems in the morning, then designs the growth engine to fill them in the afternoon\. At Zordie AI, I led a Resume Intelligence System using LLMs that cut client hiring time by 30%\. At DnC eSports, I scaled a community from zero to 13,456 active players across India and generated ₹35L\+ in revenue with a lean team\. At Planiva, I'm building an agentic AI platform for the $12B\+ event management market — recognized in the top 3% by Tavastra and a TiE Global Finalist\.
