About this Session

Perfect for: First-timers curious about mentorship or unsure where to start.

This is a quick, no-pressure intro to:
- Share what you're working on
- Ask me anything about how I mentor
- See if we're a good fit for deeper work

Whether you're a founder, engineer, or product builder, let’s connect and see where I can support you best.

Your mentor

Hello there. 👋

I’m Taskin, a multi-time founder, CTO, and strategic builder with over a decade of experience launching, scaling, and advising startups across medtech, biotech, spacetech and data.

I’ve led teams, raised funding, built zero-to-one products, and grown multi-million-dollar businesses from scratch. My sweet spot is working at the intersection of product, strategy, technology, and systems thinking, and helping other founders or technical leads navigate that same chaos with clarity.

I’m here as a mentor for those who are:
- Founders navigating early-stage tech/product decisions
- Engineers stepping into leadership for the first time
- Product-minded thinkers looking to build something real
- Builders facing burnout, pivoting, or needing reinvention

What I Bring:
- Strategic Product Thinking – How to shape, validate, and ship with limited resources
- Tech Architecture Guidance – Build vs. buy, team design, scale-up readiness
- Founder Coaching – What to do when it’s all on you, and you’re still figuring it out
- Growth & Scaling Lessons – Across B2B, B2C, and cross-industry startup models
- Emotional Resilience & Recovery – I’ve survived hard exits, team loss, founder fatigue, and startup grief

How I Mentor:
You can expect a direct, calm, and systems-based approach to mentorship. I won’t give you generic advice. I’ll meet you where you are, with:
- Personalised goal-setting + milestone tracking
- Weekly or bi-weekly 1:1 check-ins
- Soundboarding strategic decisions (tech, product, org)
- Honest feedback, tough questions, no BS

Special Focus Areas:
- Founder survival & focus under pressure
- Technical decision-making for non-technical founders
- Context switching without burning out
- Building layered product ecosystems
- Transitioning from dev → lead → CTO

If you’re looking for mentorship that’s grounded in real, lived startup experience, not theory, I’d love to hear what you’re building, navigating, or wrestling with.
