My UK years brought business study and the founder chapter: Approachables, then CloudApproach. Marketing, customer relationships and a real-estate CRM. I learned to connect an idea to an offer, a team and customers. Both businesses were sold.

I came to Simon for a master's in AI in Business and put that learning to work through product projects, student leadership and the Ain Center. Today I'm an AI Product Manager at ESC Partners, connecting customer needs, engineering and delivery. The question I keep asking: how does this help the person using it?

Portrait of Shivam Sharma
Builder.Product · People · 2026

I'm an AI Product Manager at ESC Partners, building service AI for utility teams. I connect customer discovery, product priorities and hands-on delivery, then stay involved through training and feedback. My work brings account context, suggested replies and human judgment into the same workflow. Earlier, I took a voice AI coaching MVP to its first paying customer and completed my master's in AI in Business at Simon. Outside work, I'm exploring UrbanOS, my personal venture in India, around better property decisions.

Got a question?
Ask my AI.

A guide to my work, background and UrbanOS. Based on my public profile, with answers under 150 words.

AI answers can be imperfect. For details or commitments, talk to me directly.

Section 02 · What I believe

Four things I believe about building AI.

Read them
01.

Start with the workflow. Understand the person, the decision and the information they need before choosing where AI belongs.

02.

Make the first release useful. Choose a clear workflow, make tradeoffs explicit and use feedback to decide what earns a place next.

03.

Make answers verifiable. Ground them in source information, check the cases that can go wrong and keep people in control of consequential actions.

04.

Own what happens after release. Training, adoption and the feedback loop are part of the product, just as much as the first build.
