**Quick note about this role**
This role is like no other. Startups are hard. The fancy things you read in newspapers - exactly opposite of that. You spend day uncovering new problems and solutions.
Know those entrepreneurs in residence roles ? Well this is as close as it gets to that. Looking for someone to shadow the founder and co-execute the parallel tracks in the company. It's a 200% full time job, in an exceedingly fast paced setup. Only for the strong hearted :) The experience of 1 year would be like 5 years compressed in timeline, with the kind of responsibility that will be placed on you, which means that you will have to manage your own learning curve, learn to use the coaching & mentorship given to you, well enough.
**Roles & responsibilities**

Think of this as a Mini rotational program and you will move between the following broad streams Operations, Sales support, supporting our Content & Product marketing strategy, Hiring and external engagement.
In this role, you will work directly with the founder (Ekta)
