Product Manager at Applicantz

I joined a special innovation unit, working directly with the CEO and founder to explore and build new business verticals. I developed multiple MVPs across domains such as real estate, NRI property management, and virtual events for remote workers. This was a high-velocity, experimentation-driven journey focused on rapidly building MVPs and validating ideas before committing significant time and capital.

Fresh out of my startup, I wanted to understand how established companies build products. Applicantz was my deep dive into growth product management.

What I Built: Launched MondayCircle.com—an employee engagement platform for remote-first companies.

What I Did:

  • Identified new revenue opportunities in the HR tech space

  • Conducted market research to establish feature priorities

  • Prototyped and aligned products to business goals

  • Shipped features that directly impacted revenue

What I Learned:

  • How to balance user needs with business metrics

  • The art of rapid prototyping and validation

  • Growth product management isn't just features—it's finding scalable revenue models

Key Takeaway: Growth PM is part strategist, part hustler, and entirely metrics-driven
