Required Experience
You must meet these. Non-negotiable.
- 25 years in Business Development, Performance Marketing, D2C Growth, or Founder-side roles.
- Strong working knowledge of Meta Ads (no button-clicking needed, but you must understand scaling logic).
- Deep understanding of retail, distribution, business models, and D2C unit economics.
- Experience dealing directly with founders and decision-makers.
- Comfort with content, storytelling, and data this role blends all three.
If you only have sales experience, it's not enough.
If you only know ads but can't sell, it's not enough.
You need range.
Who You Need To Be
- Someone who thinks like a founder, not a follower.
- Someone who can operate in speed, chaos, and shifting priorities while staying sharp.
- Someone who talks in metrics, not moods.
- Someone who understands Shopify as a behavior engine, not a storefront.
- Someone who's hungry to build something global not decorate a rsum.
You'll work directly with the IIT Delhi founder team.
No corporate layers.
No HR drama.
No training wheels.
What You Get
- Mentorship from IIT Delhi founders on product, brand, systems, and scale.
- Exposure to the entire D2C growth stack: listing logistics ads CRO retention LTV.
- Profit-linked incentives + a fast-track pathway to an international role if you perform.
- Autonomy, ownership, and room to experiment.
- A learning curve that rewires how you think about business forever.
If you're genuinely good, this role won't keep you comfortable.
It'll make you dangerous.
The Filter
Let's be brutally honest:
- If you want comfort, skip.
- If you need reassurance, skip.
- If you want a checklist-style BD job, skip.
But if you feel that pull in your gut
that this is the kind of chaos worth betting on
then the seat is open.
It won't stay open.
