Fundraising Associate

Scope of Contribution

1. Fundraising Readiness and Investment Story

•  Support a structured fundraising-readiness plan across business, product, financial, market, investor, and documentation workstreams.

•  Help organise investor-ready information and identify missing evidence, inconsistent assumptions, or incomplete documentation.

•  Develop a strong working understanding of Humvia, its intended users, business context, launch priorities, and commercial potential.

•  Help articulate the problem, target customer, value proposition, market opportunity, business model, differentiation, and growth possibilities in clear investor language.

•  Maintain evidence supporting the investment narrative and update it as the product, traction, customer feedback, or business assumptions evolve.

2. Investor Research, Mapping, and Prioritisation

•  Research venture capital funds, angel investors, family offices, strategic investors, micro-VCs, and other relevant capital sources.

•  Study investment thesis, preferred stage, geography, sectors, cheque size, portfolio, recent investments, and relevant decision-makers.

•  Identify investors relevant to AI, SaaS, HRTech, WorkTech, enterprise technology, future of work, or adjacent categories where appropriate.

•  Segment investors by priority, strategic relevance, warm-introduction potential, stage fit, and future-round relevance.

•  Map possible introduction routes and prioritise quality of investor fit over the size of the database.

3. Financial Modelling and Fundraise Economics

•  Support revenue, customer growth, pricing, cost, headcount, operating expense, cash-flow, burn, runway, and scenario modelling.

•  Help distinguish actuals, assumptions, estimates, and management targets clearly within working models.

•  Build or update conservative, base, and growth scenarios where required.

•  Support analysis of capital requirement, expected runway, milestone planning, and use of funds.

•  Check formulas, assumptions, and source data before information is used in investor materials.

4. Pitch Deck and Investor Materials

•  Support preparation and refinement of the investor pitch deck, company profile, Humvia narrative, market analysis, business model, and financial views.

•  Assist with traction dashboards, competitive landscapes, use-of-funds views, product roadmaps, founder information, and investor FAQs.

•  Maintain clean version control across investor materials and ensure the latest approved version is identifiable.

•  Help ensure investor-facing claims are evidence-based, current, and internally consistent.

5. Market, Comparable Company, and Funding Intelligence

•  Research relevant markets, adjacent categories, comparable startups, business models, and funding patterns.

•  Track comparable companies by product, geography, stage, funding raised, investors, customer segment, and strategic relevance.

•  Study recent funding rounds and investor activity to identify useful market signals.

•  Support market-sizing work using transparent sources and assumptions.

•  Convert research into concise insights rather than long collections of unfiltered information.

6. Investor CRM, Outreach, and Founder Preparation

•  Maintain investor records, contact history, introduction paths, meeting status, next actions, and follow-up dates.

•  Capture investor questions, objections, requested information, meeting notes, and agreed next steps accurately.

•  Prepare concise founder briefs covering investor background, fund thesis, portfolio relevance, likely interests, concerns, and desired next step.

•  Support personalised introduction notes, outreach drafts, follow-ups, and warm-introduction requests.

•  Avoid mass templates and generic fundraising spam; research should inform every meaningful investor interaction.

7. Due Diligence and Data Room Support

•  Help maintain an organised index of corporate, financial, product, customer, team, legal, compliance, and other diligence information as required.

•  Check that documents are clearly named, current, appropriately versioned, and easy to retrieve.

•  Track requested information and outstanding documentation during diligence processes.

•  Protect confidential company, financial, investor, employee, customer, and product information at all times.

•  Understand that legal, accounting, valuation, and investment decisions remain with company leadership and qualified professionals.

8. Traction and Investor Metrics

•  Support identification and tracking of metrics that strengthen the Humvia and Humppl investment story.

•  Depending on product stage, this may include sign-ups, active users, activation, engagement, conversion, retention, customer pipeline, revenue, contract value, or product milestones.

•  Help separate vanity metrics from indicators that demonstrate genuine business progress.

•  Maintain consistent metric definitions and document known limitations or changes in methodology.

We work with founders and leadership teams at software development agencies and IT services firms, helping them manage client relationships and delivery operations more efficiently.

We're looking for a motivated, resourceful Founder’s Office Associate to work directly with Worql's founder across business development, growth, research, and daily operations.

This is a hands-on role with significant responsibility from day one. Your primary focus will be helping Worql acquire new customers by identifying promising companies, engaging decision-makers, building relationships, and generating qualified sales opportunities.

Beyond sales, you'll contribute to marketing, market research, product feedback, and operational projects that support the company's growth.

We're looking for someone who takes initiative, communicates effectively, and can turn an assignment into a finished result without constant supervision.

Key Responsibilities

Business Development & Sales

• Identify and research potential customers, particularly founders and executives of software development and IT services companies.
• Initiate personalized conversations through LinkedIn and email.
• Manage outreach campaigns, follow-ups, and prospect relationships.
• Qualify potential customers and schedule meetings with the founder.

• Research industry trends, competitors, and potential market opportunities.
• Help develop LinkedIn content, outreach messaging, and marketing initiatives.
• Identify new channels and strategies for reaching prospective customers.
• Support experiments designed to improve customer acquisition.

Founder’s Office & Operations

• Prepare company and prospect research ahead of important meetings.
• Assist with business documentation, spreadsheets, scheduling, and follow-ups.
• Test Worql's platform and provide structured feedback on the customer experience.
• Coordinate projects and complete assignments across different business functions.
• Provide concise daily updates on completed work, priorities, and challenges.

Who We're Looking For

• Strong written and spoken English communication skills.
• Confidence communicating professionally with business owners and senior executives.
• Genuine interest in startups, entrepreneurship, technology, and B2B sales.
• Strong research, organizational, and problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to work independently, manage priorities, and take ownership of responsibilities.
• Comfortable using LinkedIn, spreadsheets, and modern productivity tools.
• Willingness to learn quickly, experiment, and adapt in a fast-moving startup environment.
• Previous experience in business development, sales, marketing, or startup operations.
• Familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, or CRM tools.
• Understanding of how software development agencies and IT services businesses operate.

Previous startup experience is not mandatory. Relevant internships, freelance projects, college initiatives, or independent work are equally valuable.

Compensation & Growth

• Fixed stipend: ₹22,000 per month.
• Sales meeting incentive: ₹500 for every qualified sales meeting booked and completed.
• Customer acquisition incentive: ₹2,500 for every paid customer engagement closed.
• Performance incentives: Uncapped.
• Career opportunity: High-performing candidates may receive an offer for a permanent full-time position after the initial three-month period.

You'll work directly with the founder, gain exposure to how an early-stage technology business operates, and have opportunities to take on greater responsibility as the company grows.

Submit your CV along with a short response (maximum 150 words) to the following question:

A client keeps asking a software development company for small additional features during a project. What problems might this create for the company's founder, and how would you initiate a conversation with that founder about the issue?

We're interested in how you think, communicate, and approach real business problems, not just your qualifications.

Key Responsibilities:

• Research and identify potential B2B clients.

• Coordinate with marketing and technical teams for smooth client onboarding.
• Maintain lead and follow-up records in the CRM or tracking sheets.

Parsewave builds evaluation and post-training data for frontier AI labs. We work on custom datasets, expert evaluations, reasoning traces, and other data used to train and test advanced AI models.

We are hiring someone to help with client outreach and relations.

The job is straightforward to describe but difficult to do well: research the right people, understand what they care about, and write emails and messages that actually get replies.

What you will do

- Research AI labs, researchers, teams, and potential clients

- Write thoughtful, personalised emails and messages

- Manage follow-ups without sounding automated or pushy

- Learn Parsewave’s work, pitch, clients, and communication style

- Track conversations and make sure promising leads do not go cold

- Improve our outreach based on what gets replies

- Help maintain client relationships once conversations begin

What we are looking for

Excellent written and spoken English is essential. Your writing should sound human, natural, and sharp. Generic, over-polished AI copy will be an immediate no.

You should have a basic understanding of AI. You should roughly know how models are trained and what researchers at companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind work on. You do not need to be a researcher.

You should learn quickly and work independently. We will teach you our pitch, tools, and style, but we do not want someone who needs constant instructions or follow-ups.

You should also be reliable and easy to work with: low ego, responsive, and able to get things done without drama or unnecessary delays.

Experience with cold outreach, sales, marketing, partnerships, or client relations is useful, especially if you can show real replies, meetings, or other outcomes. It is not compulsory.

This may be a good fit if you have worked in a founder’s office, at an AI or developer-tools startup, in partnerships or community, or as a strong technical or B2B writer.

How to stand out

Along with your application, include:

1. A short writing sample that represents your natural voice.

2. An example of an email, message, campaign, or piece of writing that produced a real response or result. If you do not have one, tell us how you would research and approach a potential client at an AI lab.

We care more about judgment, writing quality, learning speed, and reliability than credentials or years of experience.
