Gaurav Srivastava is a founder and operator with 12 years of cross-functional experience spanning fintech, consumer foodtech, community platforms, and genomics product ventures. Trained as an engineer at IIT Kharagpur, he pivoted into quantitative finance and portfolio modeling before channeling that analytical rigour into multiple startups, most recently co-founding HaystackAnalytics to commercialize genomics-based diagnostics. He has held COO roles in rapid-growth foodtech M&A (Holachef → Ola Foods) and scaled community and mobile-first products to tens of thousands of users as CEO of Scrollback and HeyNeighbor.
