About Deck Rooster

In the fast-paced world of startups, raising millions (or even billions) can feel like the holy grail. But out of the thousands of startups out there, only a few make the cut. What sets these winners apart? A killer pitch deck—the kind that doesn’t just explain the idea but makes the opportunity irresistible, making the startup look like it’s already on its way to the top.

At Deck Rooster, we craft presentations (or as they're famously known, pitch decks) that tell a startup's story in a way that resonates deeply with investors. And then, we bring it to life with visually stunning designs that grab attention.

Over the past 10 years, our tight-knit team has helped 200+ startups secure funding from top investors like Accel, Sequoia, Lightspeed, Blume, SoftBank, Goldman Sachs, and Y Combinator.

We’ve earned a reputation as the founders’ go-to team for crafting pitch decks that tell clear, compelling stories. You can check out our work & testimonials on our Website & Dribbble

Looking for Someone Who Gets What Makes a Great Team “Great”!

Some companies stand out because of the work they do. Others, because of the team they build. And the best ones? They’ve got a culture you can feel from the outside. We believe we have all three! And that is also what makes recruitment at Deck Rooster more challenging. How do you find people who “up” that bar?

We like to do everything thoughtfully, and recruitment is no different. We’re not into just scrolling through resumes and ticking off buzzwords. For us, recruitment is about spotting the kind of people who’ll bring something valuable to the table, and knowing how to talk about the role in a way that makes the right ones think, “Yep, this feels like me.”

Culture fit? Yeah, that’s a big deal for us . It’s not just about being nice, but rather genuinely vibing with the team and being part of the crew, not just a name on Slack. Since you’ll help us grow, you’ll also be the one making sure the vibe stays strong by bringing in people who fit and actually add to our culture.

️What your work will look like:

Craft thoughtful JDs and engaging application forms that reflect our culture, expectations, and make people actually want to apply
Find creative ways to get in front of the right people - whether that’s through platforms, smart outreach, or good old word of mouth
Be the first filter - From how someone writes or communicates, you’ll spot who might vibe here (and who won’t)
Own the opening chats - Right at the start, you’ll help candidates get to know who we really are and have real conversations that go way beyond the usual "walk me through your resume" stuff
Work directly with the founder and core team to shape hiring decisions and evolve our recruitment process as we grow
Strong written communication: You’ll craft JDs, forms, and emails that people actually want to read. Clarity and the right tone are key.
Gets the message across: As the first person candidates talk to, how you represent Deck Rooster counts big time.
Good judgment: Beyond checklists, you should have a sharp, dependable instinct for people-organisation fit.
Proactive and Independent: You don’t wait to be told. You notice what’s needed, take initiative, and make things happen.
Curiosity and Openness: You’re always looking to improve, open to trying new things, and comfortable with a bit of startup-style chaos as we figure things out along the way.

What Doesn’t Really Matter To Us:

Let’s be honest. There’s a lot of noise out there about what “counts” in recruitment. But here we like to keep it real and focus on what actually matters.

Your years of experience? Not a big deal. We’re not counting how long you’ve been in the game. What we do care about is how you think, how you solve problems, and how well you connect with people.

You might not have “recruiter” on your resume, and that’s totally fine! If you’ve got good instincts, a people-first mindset, and know how to figure things out, we’d love to talk.

₹3.5-4.5 LPA. The actual compensation within this range depends on what you bring to the table.

OUR WORKPLACE & CULTURE

️ People you will be working with

Our team includes folks from top institutes like IIMs, NIFTs, Symbiosis, SPA, and IITs.
We’re a wonderfully diverse bunch, aged 20 to 40, with backgrounds ranging from entrepreneurship and family business to investment banking and enterprise sales.
Since we’re spread out across the country, you’ll always be in the loop on what’s happening in Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, and even Chandigarh, Odisha, Assam, and Puducherry!
We’re fully remote, except for our awesome week-long workations in stunning places like Goa, Rishikesh, Manali, Chikmagalur or Mysore!
Even though we’re remote, we’re still a close-knit group. Your relationships here will be anything but transactional. This is the kind of team you’d love to grab a beer/coffee with (even if it’s virtual for now)!

This is a full-time role. Please DO NOT APPLY if you are looking for part-time or freelance work.

️ We’re accepting applications strictly via the form linked here. We won't be able to reply to any emails or DMs.
