Summary

Founder and product builder focused on AI‑driven, agentic developer workflows: Shiva co‑founded and leads product at Grail.computer, an in‑browser AI workspace that converts conversational prompts into production‑ready apps and agentic workflows; he also helped launch Hyperlauncher — an app attention arena built on Grail — demonstrating a product approach oriented to rapid, agentic app creation and crypto‑native distribution. grail+2
Interdisciplinary technical + finance background: Shiva completed a dual B.Tech+M.Tech in Material Science at IIT Bombay (2012–2017) and has passed CFA Level II, combining engineering training with formal finance study — a background that appears to inform his product and go‑to‑market thinking for fintech and crypto‑adjacent products. ac+1
Early experience in corporate finance and internships: prior roles at ICICI Prudential (business associate → senior manager) and internships in investment banking (Dexter Capital Advisors) and industry (Kennametal) give him practical exposure to business operations and finance before moving into startups and product studio work. rocketreach
Active community presence and builder persona: Shiva is public and active in maker and product communities (Indie Hackers, X/Twitter) where he posts about 'vibe coding', agentic workflows, AI video demos, and product launches — positioning him as a hands‑on builder who frequently demos prototypes and promotes product experiments. indiehackers+2
