About
I've built product inside startups. Now I help founders ship faster.
I'm Guillermo "Guill" Trujillo, a product lead for AI founders and SaaS teams. I bring Silicon Valley operating experience and a hands-on, AI-native way of working.


Where I've built
Three startups, three stages: pre-IPO scale, an acquisition, and a company I co-founded.
LendingClub
Pre and post IPOI helped shape the products that led to LendingClub's historic FinTech IPO.
Lenda
500 Startups alumI launched features that contributed to $2M in monthly recurring revenue and a successful acquisition.
hopps
Co-founderI built and scaled a B2B and B2C platform that raised over $1.1M and passed $1M in ARR.
GT Product Consulting
Founder, 2023 to todayI work with AI founders and SaaS teams as a hands-on product lead, from MVP scoping to shipped releases.
How I work
Four things you can count on in every engagement.
Execution over decks
You get shipped specs, tickets and releases, not a strategy document that sits in a folder.
Outcomes, not outputs
Every engagement is measured by what changed for the business: activation, revenue, time to launch.
AI-native by default
I work in the same AI tools your engineers use, and set up workflows that make the whole team faster.
Founder speed
Pre-seed to Series A moves fast. I plug in quickly, keep the plan simple and adjust as you learn.

I use whatever your team already runs on. These are the tools I reach for first.
