Senior🎓
Top SchoolHarry Whelchel is a multidisciplinary technologist and operator with 12 years of experience building product-led startups, SaaS platforms, and growth programs across engineering, sales, and brand communications. He’s shipped full-stack features and UX improvements on open-source education software (pupilfirst) and previously built and exited multiple SaaS products—from a Twilio-driven hiring tool to a music-studio scheduler—demonstrating both hands-on Rails/JS chops and product instincts. As a former head of brand communications at Teleport, he ran high-impact creative campaigns and scaled performance marketing channels while experimenting heavily with AI-driven creative workflows. He also grew a niche consulting/education business that generated seven-figure revenue and trained 400+ artists in social selling and pricing. Now based in New York, he organizes invite-only Broadway sing-along nights, combining event design with talent curation—an offbeat thread that reveals his knack for memorable consumer experiences. Versatile and entrepreneurial, he blends technical execution with storytelling and growth expertise to ship products people actually use.
