Senior🎓
Top SchoolPrakash Sanker is a product-minded software leader and founder with 11 years of experience building full‑stack, high‑scale web applications and startups from ideation to production. Currently co‑founder at launch.today, he focuses on rapid natural‑language driven builders and pragmatic human-in-the-loop solutions that break development error loops. Previously he led engineering and P&L at Xelpmoc, shipped a <5s time‑to‑interactive PWA serving millions daily, and founded ThinkFreely, a culturally focused mental‑health service that delivered consistent care to ~150 users while dramatically improving unit economics. Comfortable across frontend, backend, devops and architecture, he has a track record of turning ambiguous problems into measurable product wins and teaching teams modern engineering practices. Based in San Francisco with a Mathematical & Computational Science background from Stanford, he brings entrepreneurial grit, hands‑on execution, and lessons learned from both scaling products and shutting down what wasn’t yet sustainable.
