Inside Platform Product Management
Inside Platform Product Management: Driving Impact Through Foundations.
Platform Product Management is often misunderstood — but it’s one of the most critical roles in scaling modern B2B SaaS products.
In this session, Sanket will break down what it actually means to be a Platform PM, from owning horizontal, foundational capabilities to driving real business impact. Drawing on real-world experience, he’ll explore how platform work connects to metrics, what Platform PMs really work on (from authentication to integrations and APIs), and how these systems shape product velocity and customer experience.
Expect practical examples, clear frameworks, and an honest look at the role — plus time for Q&A at the end.
Perfect for product managers, experience teams, and anyone curious about how great products are built from the inside out.
Who is our awesome guest speaker?
Sanket Kavishwar is a product leader who has built across the trenches of San Francisco startups, from Series E through IPO at Medallia to Seed through Series B at Relyance AI as employee #9. He's a PM who has built products in data privacy, security, and GRC, and has operated across different layers of the enterprise stack, from engineering to post-sales to product. These days he's building micro-SaaS products like Albus to solve his own problems, using AI-enabled workflows to ship fast and find distribution.
Outside of work, Sanket is happiest outdoors, whether that's backpacking, running, or the occasional bigger adventure (he's summited Kilimanjaro and hiked the Routeburn Track). He'll tell anyone who listens that SF is one of the best running cities in the world, you just have to make peace with the hills. These days, with a 17-month-old at home, the perfect holiday morning, a long run followed by chai and jazz, is rarer than he'd like.
He's a great storyteller with plenty to share.
