Talvinder Singh
<div>4x Founder | Solving Cloud Cost & Velocity | Building Tools for Engineers (ZopDev) & Product Teams (Pragmatic Leaders/Ostronaut)<br><br>For over 15 years, my work has followed a single pattern: I find systemic friction and build companies to remove it. This journey as a four-time founder has been about creating leverage—first for students and consumers, then for the product and go-to-market teams who build and sell technology, and now for the engineers who run it.<br><br>This path started after graduating from IIT Bombay, founding a K-12 edtech venture. It led to building Tushky, an online marketplace backed by 500 Startups, which we scaled to 100+ cities and 5,000 providers. <br><br>I later took on senior product leadership roles at high-growth companies like OYO. There, my team led the software side of the critical pivot to an owned-network model, helped launch the Townhouse brand, and scaled our systems across 50,000+ rooms by the end of 2017.<br><br>In 2018, I founded Pragmatic Leaders. With backing from Y Combinator, Goodwater Capital, and Harvard Management Company, we grew it into a premier upskilling platform and a community of over 30,000 product managers. I continue to guide the platform and AI strategy there, where our learnings led directly to Ostronaut—an AI-native platform we built to create and scale personalized learning programs, now in use with several large enterprise teams.<br><br>This journey now brings me to ZopDev, where I lead the team as CEO. We are tackling the fundamental cloud friction that slows down engineering teams everywhere, from fast-growing startups to groups within the Fortune 500. Our work is centered on two leverage points:<br><br>Cost: Our lead product, ZopNight, is a dependency-aware FinOps scheduling tool. It reduces cloud waste on non-production environments without impacting development workflows.<br>Velocity: ZopDay is our infrastructure orchestration layer that gets teams from a git repo to a production-ready environment in minutes.<br><br>My approach is evidence-first. If you're a leader dealing with the trade-offs between cloud cost and velocity, I'm always open to connecting.</div>

<div>Building Kaboo.ai<br><br>Career Summary - ex-founder, 0 to 1 Specialist, Chief of Staff, Tech consulting, Org Farming.<br><br>As a generalist, I have worked on designing and running 0 to 1 sprints, led MarCom, BD/Hunting & Data functions, OKRs, amongst others.

<div>Scale with AI before your competition does<br><br>In November 2023, I gave up my job, taught myself Python and Generative AI, and spent the whole of 2024 and 2025 building AI products. I've spent over 3,000 hours working on AI and building AI apps.<br><br>I learned AI from scratch as a non-technical person. That means I know exactly where you're stuck: too much hype, not enough time, and no clear path from "this sounds cool" to "this actually works for my team every single day."<br><br>I've shipped AI apps that worked and ones that failed (like RecurGrow, my AI sales research product). Those failures taught me what AI can reliably automate and where it wastes your money.<br><br>I work with founders and CXOs in two ways:<br>✅ Training you and your teams on advanced AI use: advanced prompting, where to use AI vs. not, how to reduce hallucinations.<br>✅ Publishing monthly AI deep dives on my Substack blog, reaching over 350 senior leaders from companies like P&G, Bain, and Alibaba.<br><br>Previously, I spent 11 years at Bain & Company as a strategy consultant and as a revenue strategy leader for the Middle East & Africa at ByteDance (TikTok).<br><br>If you want to learn and use AI for some real competitive advantage for yourself and your team or org, follow me on LinkedIn or DM me.</div>

<div>Head of Human Resources @ SpotDraft | Global HR, Business Strategy<br><br>I never set out to lead global HR at a scaling SaaS company.<br><br>With a background in psychology, a career built brick by brick - across startups, corporate teams, and now leading HR at SpotDraft, I’ve always viewed people operations as more than just a support function. For me, it’s the engine that drives business outcomes.<br><br>What sets my approach apart is empathy, paired with execution. I’m obsessed with building processes that actually work - for people and for the business. <br><br>That meant scaling a zero-to-one HR function, setting up global hiring systems, crafting performance philosophies, building feedback rituals, and designing culture codes from scratch.<br><br>Over the last few years, I’ve helped SpotDraft scale across geographies while keeping culture and communication tight knit. <br><br>We’ve celebrated employee spotlights, run experiments (yes, even a paper plane competition), and introduced systems that reflect who we are - not just what HR is “supposed” to do.<br><br>I believe:<br><br>→ HR should be transparent.<br>→ Culture belongs to everyone, not just HR.<br>→ Employee experience should never be an afterthought.<br>→ And when AI automates the repetitive 40%, HR will need to lead the strategic 60%.<br><br>If you're building people first teams, solving for scale, or rethinking how HR can partner with business - let’s connect! - I’d love to learn from you.</div>
