Kiren Srinivasan is a founder and full‑stack software engineer with 11 years of experience building creator-focused products and startups from ideation to market. As CEO of Fantasy Metals and previously CrafterFaster, he combines hands‑on engineering across embedded, mobile, web, and backend stacks with product instincts for acquisition, retention, and monetization. He has a track record of shipping first-version apps that drove early traction (including a TestFlight beta that helped land YC interviews) and refactoring large Rails codebases at Holberton to improve developer productivity. Kiren blends creative pursuits—comics, music, and audio plugin development—with engineering, using interdisciplinary work to inform novel product ideas. Based in New York, he leverages both technical depth and founder grit to de-risk creative work for other creators.
