Job description

MyGate is a leading community technology platform transforming the way residential communities manage security, communication, convenience, and everyday living.

We are looking for a high-calibre professional to join the Founder's Office and work closely with the founders on high-priority business initiatives, strategic projects, and day-to-day problem-solving.

This is a role for someone who enjoys operating at the intersection of strategy, execution, and business leadership and wants a front-row seat to how a high-growth company is built.

What You Will Do

• Work closely with the founders on strategic and business-critical priorities across the organization.
• Own and drive high-impact projects from problem identification to execution and closure.
• Work across functions such as Business, Product, Operations, Finance, Sales, and People to drive key initiatives.
• Conduct structured analysis and deep dives to identify opportunities, risks, and areas for improvement.
• Prepare business reviews, dashboards, presentations, and decision-making frameworks for the founders.
• Translate ambiguous business problems into clear, actionable plans.
• Track execution of key initiatives and ensure timely follow-through across stakeholders.
• Support founders in evaluating new business opportunities, market trends, partnerships, and growth initiatives.
• Act as a central point of coordination for selected founder-led projects and priorities.
• Be comfortable working on both high-level strategic thinking and hands-on execution.

What We Are Looking For

• 4–6 years of professional experience, preferably in management consulting, strategy consulting, investment banking, or a high-growth startup strategy role.
• Candidates from top-tier institutions, preferably IIMs, IITs, or ISB.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills with the ability to structure ambiguous problems.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Strong business acumen and the ability to understand different aspects of a business quickly.
• Highly organized with strong project management and stakeholder management capabilities.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment with evolving priorities.
• Ability to work directly with senior leadership and independently drive initiatives to completion.
• Strong attention to detail with a bias towards action and execution.
• High ownership, curiosity, and willingness to go beyond a defined job description.

Who Will Thrive in This Role?

This role would be particularly relevant for someone who:

• Comes from a consulting background and wants to move closer to actual business execution.
• Wants to work directly with founders and senior leadership and understand how business decisions are made.
• Enjoys solving open-ended problems rather than working within a narrowly defined function.
• Is comfortable switching between strategy, analysis, execution, and stakeholder management.
• Wants broad exposure to multiple functions and the opportunity to make a tangible impact on the business.

Why Join the Founder's Office at MyGate?

• Work directly with the founders and senior leadership team.
