Founders Office Associate

Founder's Office
HSR Layout · On-site
Consumer business, home services. 35 people. Just raised. Growing faster than we can staff it, which is why this post exists.
The job
You take problems off the founders' plate and close them.
Some months that's operations. Some months it's a hiring sprint, a vendor renegotiation, a funnel that stopped converting, a city that needs standing up. The scope changes. We're not going to pretend otherwise.
What doesn't change: you own outcomes with numbers attached, you spend real time in the field and not just on a laptop, and you have a very short line to the people making decisions.
You'll do well here if
You've run something yourself. Not supported it, not advised on it. Ran it.
2 to 5 years in. Startup ops, consulting, field roles, or you built something of your own.
Hindi or Kannada alongside English. Half this business doesn't happen in English.
You move before things are clean, and you're fine being wrong in public occasionally.
You can hold a spreadsheet and a hard conversation with equal competence.
Don't bother if
You want a defined role.
You want to work "on strategy." Strategy is a byproduct here.
You need permission before you start.
The next 12 months of cash is the main thing you're optimising for.
Money, honestly
₹5-6L to start. Doubles after your first cycle if you deliver.
Real equity, and we'll walk you through the actual numbers on the first call rather than saying "life-changing" and hoping you don't ask.
The role is built to become Chief of Staff or a functional head. That's the intent, not a promise. It depends on what you ship.
And yes, the starting cash is below market for what we're describing. We know. The trade is scope, equity, and proximity. If that maths doesn't work for you right now, it's a bad fit and we'd both rather find out today.
