 About Revent
 
 
 
 
 Revent
 
 
 is on a mission to revolutionize how businesses and individuals access technology. We
 
 
 
 
 offer a
 
 
 pre-owned electronics subscription service
 
 
 &ndash; making high-quality devices accessible
 
 
 
 
 while promoting reuse and sustainability. But that&rsquo;s just the beginning. Under the hood, we&rsquo;re
 
 
 
 
 building advanced
 
 
 AI-powered tools
 
 
 : automating IT management for SMEs, streamlining our
 
 
 
 
 sourcing operations, optimizing marketing, and even innovating how our call center works
 
 
 
 
 through AI. We&rsquo;re an early-stage startup (innovating since 2023) with a small, passionate team
 
 
 
 
 of founders and early employees. We have the domain knowledge, the business model, and
 
 
 
 
 early traction &ndash; now we need
 
 
 you
 
 
 to take our tech to the next level.
 
 
 
 
 The Opportunity: CTO with a Path to Co
 
 
 ‑
 
 
 Founder
 
 
 
 
 This is
 
 
 not just another CTO job
 
 
 . This is a chance to become a
 
 
 partner in building a
 
 
 
 
 deep-tech startup
 
 
 from the ground up. If you&rsquo;ve ever dreamed of being a
 
 
 technical
 
 
 
 
 co-founder
 
 
 , shaping product and tech strategy hand-in-hand with an obsessed founding team,
 
 
 
 
 this is your call. As CTO at Revent, you will be the
 
 
 architect, strategist, and guardian
 
 
 of all things
 
 
 
 
 tech. In the near term, you&rsquo;ll join as our technology leader; in the long term, you have a clear
 
 
 
 
 path to co-founder status
 
 
 with additional equity &ndash; we want you to grow into a true owner of the
 
 
 
 
 company.
 
 
 
 
 We know joining a startup is a big leap. It means rolling up your sleeves to build something
 
 
 
 
 novel, making tough decisions, and wearing many hats. But it also means
 
 
 building an asset
 
 
 
 
 that
 
 you
 
 own a significant piece of
 
 
 . If the idea of creating AI-driven systems and a platform
 
 
 
 
 that could redefine an industry excites you more than a cushy corporate job &ndash; let&rsquo;s talk.
 
 
 
 
 What You&rsquo;ll Do (Key Responsibilities)
 
 
 
 
 You will
 
 
 own our entire tech stack and innovation pipeline
 
 
 . Key responsibilities include:
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Lead end-to-end product development
 
 
 &ndash; from brainstorming and prototyping new
 
 
 
 
 features, to deploying scalable production systems that support our subscription
 
 
 
 
 platform. You&rsquo;ll oversee
 
 
 everything from frontend to backend
 
 
 , ensuring a seamless
 
 
 
 
 experience for subscribers and partners.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Architect our AI-driven platforms
 
 
 &ndash; Design and build the core infrastructure for our AI
 
 
 
 
 tools: data pipelines, machine learning models, and integration with operations. For
 
 
 
 
 example, you might implement an AI engine that automates device sourcing or a
 
 
 
 
 recommendation system that personalizes subscriptions.●
 
 
 Scale and Secure the System
 
 
 &ndash; As we grow, ensure our applications are
 
 
 secure,
 
 
 
 
 robust, and scalable
 
 
 . You&rsquo;ll make key decisions on cloud infrastructure, architecture
 
 
 
 
 patterns, and tech stack choices to keep us reliable as usage increases. Performance
 
 
 
 
 tuning, cybersecurity, and best engineering practices fall under your purview.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Innovate Internal Tools
 
 
 &ndash; Develop and refine our
 
 
 internal automation
 
 
 products: IT
 
 
 
 
 automation tools for SMEs (our B2B angle), AI-driven marketing analytics, chatbot and
 
 
 
 
 call center AI integration, etc. You get to play with cutting-edge tech (think GPT-like
 
 
 
 
 models, RPA, whatever fits) to give us an edge internally and potentially as new product
 
 
 
 
 lines.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Build and Lead the Tech Team
 
 
 &ndash; Initially, you might be coding hands-on (we hope you
 
 
 
 
 love that!), but you will also hire and mentor engineers as we expand. You&rsquo;ll shape our
 
 
 
 
 engineering culture &mdash; one that&rsquo;s product-focused, high on ownership, and fast but sane.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Strategic Tech Leadership
 
 
 &ndash; Work directly with us (the founders) on product strategy.
 
 
 
 
 You&rsquo;ll be part of all high-level decisions, not just an executor. That means translating
 
 
 
 
 business goals into a technology roadmap, evaluating build vs. buy decisions, and
 
 
 
 
 steering us toward tech opportunities we might not even know about. In investor
 
 
 
 
 meetings or partner discussions, you&rsquo;ll represent the tech vision of Revent.
 
 
 
 
 Who You Are (Ideal Profile)
 
 
 
 
 We understand the perfect candidate probably doesn&rsquo;t exist, but if many of the points below
 
 
 
 
 resonate, you might be the person we&rsquo;re looking for:
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Seasoned Builder:
 
 
 5+ years of hands-on software development experience. You&rsquo;ve
 
 
 
 
 built
 
 
 full-stack applications
 
 
 (web or mobile) and have solid knowledge of modern
 
 
 
 
 frameworks. Bonus if you have experience with
 
 
 AI/ML or data engineering
 
 
 &ndash; you don&rsquo;t
 
 
 
 
 need to be a data scientist, but you should be comfortable integrating ML models or
 
 
 
 
 working with AI APIs.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Architect &amp; Problem Solver:
 
 
 You&rsquo;ve designed system architectures and made scaling
 
 
 
 
 decisions. Concepts like microservices, REST/GraphQL APIs, cloud infrastructure
 
 
 
 
 (AWS/Azure/GCP), and CI/CD are second nature. You can evaluate trade-offs (speed
 
 
 
 
 vs. quality, build vs. buy) and make pragmatic decisions that align with business goals.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Passionate About Deep Tech:
 
 
 You stay updated on tech trends, especially in AI and
 
 
 
 
 automation, because you
 
 
 love
 
 
 this stuff. Perhaps you&rsquo;ve played with GPT-4/LLMs, have
 
 
 
 
 opinions on the latest ML ops tools, or tinker with new frameworks for fun. The idea of
 
 
 
 
 applying AI to a real-world, unglamorous industry (like refurbished electronics logistics)
 
 
 
 
 excites you.●
 
 
 Leadership Mindset:
 
 
 You may or may not have formally managed people, but you&rsquo;re
 
 
 
 
 ready to
 
 
 step into a leadership role
 
 
 . You take ownership of outcomes, not just tasks.
 
 
 
 
 You can mentor junior developers, coordinate with non-tech teams, and are able to
 
 
 
 
 represent the technology vision to stakeholders. Basically, you think like a founder:
 
 
 
 
 proactive, accountable, and driven.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Entrepreneurial &amp; Gritty:
 
 
 You know startup life is not 9-to-5. You&rsquo;re
 
 
 all-in
 
 
 for the
 
 
 
 
 challenge of creating a product and a company from zero to one. When things break,
 
 
 
 
 you jump in to fix them. When we need a quick MVP, you hack and iterate fast. You&rsquo;re
 
 
 
 
 resilient, resourceful, and OK with a bit of chaos.
 
 
 Importantly, you share our
 
 
 
 
 excitement for Revent&rsquo;s vision
 
 
 &ndash; this isn&rsquo;t just a gig, it&rsquo;s a mission.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 (Preferred) Domain Interest:
 
 
 If you have experience or interest in e-commerce, supply
 
 
 
 
 chain, fintech, or any aspect of electronics/gadget markets, that&rsquo;s a plus. It&rsquo;s fine if you&rsquo;re
 
 
 
 
 new to the domain &ndash; as long as you&rsquo;re eager to learn.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Education:
 
 
 Not a stickler on formal degrees. Computer Science or related
 
 
 
 
 Bachelors/Masters is great, but proven experience and skill are what count. If you&rsquo;ve
 
 
 
 
 built cool projects or led technical initiatives, tell us!
 
 
 
 
 What We Offer
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Founder-Track Position:
 
 
 You&rsquo;ll be joining the core team. We&rsquo;re offering a
 
 
 CTO title
 
 
 
 
 from day one, and a clear path to earn a
 
 
 Co-Founder title
 
 
 as we hit milestones together.
 
 
 
 
 If you&rsquo;ve ever wanted to be a co-founder, this is an opportunity to prove yourself and
 
 
 
 
 become one.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Equity &amp; Upside:
 
 
 Significant
 
 
 stock options/equity grant
 
 
 commensurate with the
 
 
 
 
 importance of this role. We&rsquo;re prepared to offer a founder-level ownership stake that will
 
 
 
 
 vest over time.
 
 
 Simply put: if you help build Revent into a success, you should
 
 
 
 share
 
 
 
 
 
 
 richly in that success
 
 
 
 . (Details can be discussed in person, but expect a sizable
 
 
 
 
 percentage, not just perfunctory stock.)
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Salary:
 
 
 We will provide a
 
 
 modest base salary
 
 
 to cover living expenses, but if you are
 
 
 
 
 after a big-cash compensation, this won&rsquo;t be the right fit (at least until we grow or raise
 
 
 
 
 big funding). Our approach is low cash burn, high equity. The upside is that your equity
 
 
 
 
 could be worth far more than a market salary if we execute well. We want someone who
 
 
 
 
 finds that trade-off exciting, not scary.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Remote &amp; Flexible Work:
 
 
 We are a remote-friendly team.
 
 
 Preferred location is India
 
 
 
 
 (most of our team is here and it keeps time zones easy), but we are open to exceptional
 
 
 
 
 candidates from anywhere. We care about output, not clocking hours at a desk. Work
 
 
 
 
 from wherever you&rsquo;re most productive. That said, if you&rsquo;re in Bengaluru or Mumbai (justexamples), that&rsquo;s awesome &ndash; we can occasionally meet in person.
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Full-Time Commitment (with Transition Option):
 
 
 This is envisioned as a full-time role.
 
 
 
 
 If you&rsquo;re currently engaged in something, we can accommodate a
 
 
 transition period
 
 
 &ndash;
 
 
 
 
 for example, starting part-time for a few weeks or a couple of months &ndash; but we will want
 
 
 
 
 you all-in soon because the opportunity and challenges in front of us are big!
 
 
 
 
 ●
 
 
 Culture:
 
 
 Expect a fast-paced,
 
 
 founder-driven culture
 
 
 . We are candid (sometimes
 
 
 
 
 brutally honest), we challenge each other, and we wear multiple hats. But we also value
 
 
 
 
 work-life balance in the long run and are building a culture of
 
 
 trust, curiosity, and
 
 
 
 
 continuous learning
 
 
 . There&rsquo;s no corporate BS here &ndash; just a small team of people
 
 
 
 
 figuring things out together and trying to create something awesome. If you need a
 
 
 
 
 break, take it; if you need help, ask. We&rsquo;re in this journey together, through the late-night
 
 
 
 
 coding sessions and the celebratory high-fives when things finally click.
 
 
 
 
 ●
