What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters growth, innovation, and collaboration in a forward-thinking organization.

I’m Sounak Senapati, currently serving as Corporate Counsel at Tresa Motors and an entrepreneur who founded Bubl and Apto. My journey has taken me from developing India’s first multi-asset personalized investment platform with Bubl to scaling a pay-per-use gym subscription service at Apto by onboarding 82 gyms and securing vital grants. At Tresa Motors, I manage contracts, compliance, and strategic growth initiatives in the EV sector. I thrive on solving complex challenges with a founder’s mindset and am driven by a passion for legal innovation and operational strategy. Through every role, I have remained focused on innovative problem-solving and learning from every challenge.
