Kinjal Sharma
I thrive where ambiguity lives. I dig into user stories, find the patterns, and translate them into features that matter. From startups to universities, I've helped shape products that bridge gaps between what people need and what businesses deliver.
About Me
I started out in computer science and engineering, curious about how technology could solve real problems, and that curiosity took me from leading student projects and mentoring juniors to working with NGOs, startups, and eventually health tech. Along the way I discovered I love talking to users, making sense of messy insights, and turning them into simple, usable products.
Whether that meant managing a Discord community, shaping a university patent into a marketable MVP, or helping cross-functional teams at Innovaccer ship better programs, I thrive in connecting user needs with business outcomes. Now, as a Master's student in Engineering Management, I'm deepening my skills in product management and product strategy while staying grounded in what matters: empathy and execution.
At my core, I'm driven by the belief that great products come from listening closely, collaborating widely, and having the courage to turn small ideas into meaningful impact.

Beyond Work
Life is more than professional achievements. Here's what fuels my creativity and passion outside of work.
Research & Academic Writing
