The work

Five years, four eras,
two pivots survived.

Convosight, October 2021 to July 2026. The company changed shape twice underneath him — from a Facebook-group marketing marketplace, to community-derived insights, to a video-first social intelligence platform. Each time, he took the ambiguous zero-to-one problem and shipped. Pick an era.

Cross-cutting ownership  ·  the many hats

Go-to-market & sales

Runs the sales motion himself

Client office visits, live onboardings, demos, presales. 10+ clients converted directly from conference pitches across Dubai (×2), Berlin, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York and Washington D.C.

Security & compliance

Compliance as a revenue enabler

Named owner. Steers channel-partner audits with Instagram, YouTube and Meta — the thing that keeps platform data access alive — plus client-side audits that unlocked enterprise RFP qualification.

Vendor & partnerships

Negotiated contracts to under 20%

Works directly with the channels, Amazon, AWS and data vendors on pricing. Drove reductions proactively as volume grew, before anyone asked, to keep unit economics healthy at scale.

Cost engineering

82% off ingestion. 36% off infra.

Ingestion unit cost from $2.50 to $0.44 per 1,000 pieces. Monthly tech and infra from north of $100K to under $70K — and he built the observability layer that made it measurable and durable.

AI-native building

Ships working software himself

Vector retrieval, RAG, evals, fine-tuning, production prompting, parallelisation. 40+ projects built with his own hands, several productionised into the platform.

Culture & team

"The names of every single person"

Onboarded across product, engineering, keyword ops, customer success and sales. Asked what he'd put in a professional time capsule, he didn't name a product — he named the team.

Vibe-coded at work

A PM with a
merge history.

"A PRD I'd been sitting on for three weeks became working software in under two days once I just built it myself. That tool found 3,000+ relevant profiles for a client — off my local machine."

One question a day.
You both answer in secret,
then peek together.

Somewhere between the grocery runs and "did you lock the door?", the good conversations go quiet. Nothing's broken — you're just overdue for a good one. Rekindle is a full consumer product Kush conceived, designed, built, priced, wrote and shipped end to end: the product, the encryption architecture, the question bank, the pricing page, the App Store listing, all of it.

The loop
Answer hidden → partner answers → simultaneous reveal → a conversation starter for tonight
Question design
7 categories that deepen with the relationship. Text, multiple choice and slider formats. Swap today's question with one tap.
The game mechanic
One power-up a week. Spend it to write a secret custom question — or to find out whether today's was secretly written by them.
Privacy as a feature
AES-256-GCM encryption before anything leaves the device. No data selling. Not even Rekindle can read what you write.
Pricing
$4.99/mo or $34.99/yr — one payment covers both partners. No ads, no upsells.
Why it counts
Consumer instincts, monetisation design and shipping discipline — proven outside the safety of a company.

Education & early signal

Engineer first.
Strategist second.

Computer science before the MBA — which is why the PRDs come with architecture, and why the prototype usually arrives before the debate ends.

2019 — 2021

MBA, Strategy

Management Development Institute (MDI), Gurgaon

Where the commercial half came from — strategy, GTM, and a competition record that reads like a product portfolio.

2013 — 2017

B.Tech, Computer Science

Bangalore Institute of Technology, Bangalore

The reason he can co-architect a multi-agent pipeline and then go build the eval harness for it himself.
