Hello, I'm Shashank! 👋🏻

Currently in Dubai

Early 20s ambition was to build a billion dollar company. Today, I'm building a life that allows me to work on anything I enjoy, from anywhere I want, alongside people I enjoy working with.

I design, code, and market the products I build. Semi-nomad who loves meeting people from different walks of life. I run my life on a personal operating system called LifeOS. You can read my 2026 manifesto to see what I'm working towards this year.

People say you can't have everything. I disagree. You can build a successful career, have a family you love spending time with, and friends you plan random trips with. You don't need to sacrifice any of it. People tell you otherwise because that's the only life they know. It's your story. Write it however you like.

Tinkering with:

187 Studio

Curated talent network connecting senior engineers with fast-growing startups. Quality matches, not bulk resumes.

Current Focus

Perk Pilot

Maximize credit card rewards and perks. Building agentic AI workflows to optimize personal finance.

Fitso.me

Your wardrobe lives in your closet. Your style should live in your pocket. Managing your lifestyle, one outfit at a time.

Other Work

Background

Started my first startup in college and scaled it to $50K. 10+ years of experience as a full-stack engineer, EM & TPM across multiple startups (mostly B2B SaaS). Have run a dev shop for 3+ years shipping 16 products; led a team of 6-8 engineers.

Previously built tech at Swiggy, TrueBeacon (by Zerodha), MPL, Fyle & Belong.

When I'm not building

You'll find me planning random trips with friends, exploring new cities, or deep in conversation with someone I just met. Love meeting people from different walks of life. Everyone has a story worth hearing.

Did my first solo-paragliding from 8000 feet last year. Still think about it.
