STARTUP
OPERATOR
Hey!
I'm Shiv Ghodake, a startup operator and aspiring venture investor based in India, with hands-on experience building products, validating markets, and supporting early-stage founders.
My background spans web development, GTM strategy, product scoping, and startup project management.
I've built a business vertical from zero, worked directly with founders across SaaS and services businesses, and helped transform ideas into structured products, sales motions, and investor-ready ventures.
These experiences have given me an operator's perspective on how startups are built, and where they break.
