hey, i'm pavan 👋
i turn ideas into useful products

tech + product enthusiast

usually somewhere between engineering, product & a new ‘what if’

small ideas have a habit of becoming side projects around here

a little about me

pavan
real image

currently part of the product engineering team at sigmoid

before this, i built vrtti to make procurement of essential documents simpler & formerly, co-founder of madgigs corp 

along the way, i've worked with startups across hr-tech & ed-tech in engineering & product management

i like understanding the problem, figuring out what matters & getting something useful out into the world

things i'm building

a few ideas i couldn't leave at ‘someone should build this’

dreamhireagent website preview

dreamhireagent

a little extra workforce for big ideas

i'm building a marketplace where you can hire specialist ai agents for a clear job

share a brief, approve the plan & review what comes back — starting with design work

creators can also build, test & publish their own agents

world of temples

every temple has a story worth keeping

i'm building a living archive of hindu temples — the well-known ones & the little places with stories worth keeping

explore temples, learn about their traditions, contribute local knowledge & keep a record of your own journeys with my yatra

wonderoom

small humans, big adventures

a little world where your child becomes the hero

create personalised bedtime stories & narrated adventures inspired by familiar people, places & everyday moments — with illustrated scenes & keepsake books to hold on to

techies of bharat website preview

techies of bharat

find your people, keep your curiosity

i'm building a home for curious tech folks across bharat

quick tech updates, useful articles, discussions & ai-assisted guidance — all in one place to keep learning, exchange ideas & connect with people figuring out similar things

what keeps me curious

useful technology, thoughtful products & people who care about what they're building

01

ai that actually helps

getting from ‘that's impressive’ to ‘that's actually useful’

02

products that make sense

clear choices, thoughtful engineering & less unnecessary friction

03

building from zero

small experiments, honest feedback & the occasional ‘oh, that changes things’

04

tech + culture + community

helping people learn, connect & preserve what matters

what keeps me up at night

  1. 01can ai become something we can reliably hand work over to?
  2. 02why is the ‘simple version’ often the hardest thing to build?
  3. 03what's worth building even if it never becomes the next big thing?

when i'm not building stuff

apparently there are things to do outside a laptop too

  • swimming

    probably my favourite way to switch the brain off

    give me a pool, a bunch of laps & nothing asking for a status update

  • a drink & a long conversation

    good company, a drink & a conversation that somehow goes from absolute nonsense to life, startups, technology & back again

  • getting lost somewhere new

    12+ countries so far

    still one of my favourite ways to realise the world is much bigger than whatever i've been overthinking that week

  • an unhealthy amount of television

    i've spent an unreasonable amount of time with walter white, dexter morgan, tony soprano, jerry seinfeld, charlie harper, michael bluth & frank gallagher

    make of that what you will! :) 

got an idea?

i'm up for conversations about products, engineering, useful ai & things that bring people together

bring the rough version
we can start there

no pitch deck required
