Kavir Kaycee
Hi! I'm Kavir — an experienced product manager, writer, and builder based in Bombay, India. Welcome to my tiny corner of the internet!
I’m the Director of Product and AI at Table22 (Lightspeed, Forerunner, and Footwork ventures funded)
I’ve previously led product management for Tier 1 VC (Accel, Sequoia) funded startups including CarDekho and Hashnode. And worked across B2B and B2C in auto, fintech, AI, collaboration tools, and media. Ex-founder of an HR-tech startup. ISB and On Deck alum.
I built the car loans platform for CarDekho from scratch leading to $12M in annual disbursals, now operating at $1B disbursals annually. At Hashnode, I led the product roadmap to achieve an 80% increase in new sign-up growth rate and a 52% increase in retention of monthly active registered users.
I also write a newsletter on product and AI with 5K+ subs.
Outside of work, I enjoy pickleball, football, gaming, FIFA, word games, standup comedy, and exploring new places to eat good food.
