Martin Gontovnikas is a B2B SaaS advisor and general partner based in Berkeley with 14 years of experience blending software engineering and growth. He built the widely used AngularJS library Restangular—adopted by sites like weather.com, Reuters, and CNN—and then moved into marketing, eventually leading growth as VP/SVP at Auth0 where marketing drove the majority of revenue. Today he advises and interim-leads growth for startups and scale-ups (Vercel, Rev, Neon, Clerk and others) through HyperGrowth Partners, applying an “engineering thinking” approach to PLG, ABM and automated outbound. A hands-on full‑stack contributor across Auth0 SDKs and developer tooling, he’s known for designing rigorous experiments that accelerate customer revenue. He also scouts for startups at Madrona and brings a traveler’s curiosity—and a passion for new restaurants and local breweries—to his work.
