- Why Work With Us
- You want to do the best work of your professional life and grow not just financially but in your skill set faster than you thought was possible!
- You are excited about the thought of competing head-to-head with YouTube and Udemy coz that is what our current customers use for upskilling in game development!
- While we are a funded start-up having raised our last (seed round) with Kalaari Capital back in Aug 2022 and still having almost 95% of the capital left in the bank as we have grown methodically and not just burn investor money and grow at all costs.
- Hard Truths:
- 6 days a week - Each day matters when we all have limited time on this planet. So if you are mentally prepared to give your 7 days because you love what you will be doing (even though we don’t expect team members to work on 7 days), then only apply 🙏
- Outcome over efforts matter - Your focus will be on doing what is right for the customer at all times irrespective of the fact that you might have to go against your manager. If maniacal customer focus is your intent, then you will never be penalized for your actions.
- Radical transparency - If you have a problem with anyone in the team, senior or junior, or even the founder, you are encouraged to directly address the issue head-on by being open about it in a one-on-one conversation with the person and trying to resolve it asap first before looping in others like your reporting/skip-level reporting manager.
- Work hours - 10 AM till work is done.
- This role comes with a competitive salary, stock options, unlimited paid time off, plus several employee benefits.
