> Job Description Snapshot

- Location: Noida (Delhi NCR)
> Building a product nation
I believe products bring real value and want to see India become a Product Nation. Not IT Services, not BPO powerhouse, but an export house of scalable technology products. I want the world to use off-the-shelf scalable software products made and handcrafted in India.
But it’s not going to be easy. We need to change our thinking, ask difficult questions, and come up with insane ideas.
For example, I believe that all forms of transportation will become redundant one day, making our lives much more efficient. Our descendants will laugh at the idea that we actually drove our cars everyday to the other part of the town to be able to complete our work. Sounds insane or exciting?
> Getting the word out
To make a Product Nation, the simple first step is a product.
And we built our first one. Customers from about 114 countries are using it to connect their customers from offline print media to online content.
Scanova is a QR Code Management tool that allows businesses to create, design, manage, and track QR Code-based interactions.
Scanova is a great product. But how do we get the word out? How do we get people to notice us?
So we started blogging about it. A lot. And people did notice us. We get about 100,000+ page views per month.
But you’ll agree that’s not enough. We need to reach a million people (or even a billion?) if we are to build a great product company. And for that, we need you.
> Building the right team
To achieve this vision, I am looking for a team that believes in what we do and is hungry for challenges. We are not looking for employees but hardcore problem-solvers.

Hunger to make a dent in this world

> A little more about us
We call ourselves Trycon Technologies. It was started in 2013 by Gautam Garg, Mukesh Gupta, and Swapnil Jain - all alumni of Delhi College of Engineering (2010 & 2011 batch).
After college we worked for a couple of years in companies like Grail Research, Adobe, and Oracle. But like you, we wanted more from life. Not just money but freedom. Freedom to use our potential and freedom to make a real dent in this world. So we quit our jobs and came together in late 2013.
We are not alone. Hyderabad-based Utthishta Seed Fund saw our progress and invested in us in 2015.
This is our story. Let’s meet up so that we can learn yours. And always remember this:
“The biggest risk is not taking any risk. In a world that's changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks” - Mark Zuckerberg, 2011
