Job Description

About us

Zenskar is building a new-age billing and pricing infrastructure for SaaS companies. As SaaS pricing evolves from vanilla subscription-based models to more granular usage-based models, billing and pricing infrastructure needs to be completely reimagined.

Zenskar is founded by Apurv Bansal & Saurabh Agrawal, who sold their previous startups to Snapdeal and Gaana respectively. They have experience at organizations such as Google, Basepair, Elevation Capital, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and Harvard Business School. We are funded by marquee global investors, including Bessemer Venture Partners.

We are building our founding team, and are looking for folks who can optimize for quick iteration, and fast deployment and have a great developer experience. Ideally, you are excited about learning and meaningfully shaping the trajectory of an early-stage startup from Day 0 in its journey.

We default alive: Default Alive or Default Dead?

What you can expect

• Ownership and autonomy: As a founding team member, you have immense responsibility. You own and drive the execution.

Learning

• You will work on challenging problems and cutting-edge technologies, ship (a lot!), and engage in some of the most meaningful work of your life.

• On the backend side, we are building high throughput, high-scale data pipes to deal with the usage data of companies of any size.

• On the front-end side, we are building low-code interfaces for various parts of the billing stack to let companies design the best tools for themselves.

• You will have to think about all the people and systems that interact with the finance stack of a company, modularize the different parts of the stack well and build the correct abstractions. This includes systems like the CPQ (Configure-Price-Quote) that Salespeople interact with, the metering system that Developers manage, and the Billing, Payments, and Accounting systems that Finance manages.

Culture:

• Our culture is deeply focused on iterating quickly, deploying fast, and having a great developer experience.

• We don’t take ourselves too seriously, and know how to have fun :)

• The health of our team is most important to us. Balance work with life - be productive, not busy.

• Being remote first, we thrive via async communication.

• Flexibility: Remote - work from wherever you are in the world. We’re opening an office in Bangalore in case you want to work from the office.

• Compensation: We offer a competitive salary with generous ESOPs

Benefits:

•  Health insurance

•  Generous vacation policy

•  Learning and development budget

•  Team events and company offsites

•  Choose your laptop

•  Maternity and Paternity benefits
