This role is a great fit for someone who is creative, bold, and deeply excited about building brands people remember. You’ll work closely with the Founders and the GTM leadership team to shape Reo.Dev’s brand narrative - how we show up in the market, how we’re talked about, and how we stand out in a crowded DevTool ecosystem.
Reo.Dev is at a breakout moment. We launched in Oct 2023, and within just two years we’ve become one of the most talked-about platforms in the DevTool world. The best DevTool companies globally use Reo, and we’ve reached strong PMF. Now we’re entering our next chapter - moving from being known to owning the DevGTM narrative.
This is where you come in.
🎨 What will you be working on?
- Conceptualising and executing bold brand campaigns that make Reo.Dev memorable in the DevTool and GTM ecosystem
- Coming up with out-of-the-box, viral-worthy ideas - content, stunts, collaborations, launches, narratives

- Collaborating with creators, designers, and agencies (especially in the US / global markets) to bring ideas to life
- Experimenting with formats - video, social, community-led campaigns, experiential ideas
- Owning brand execution end-to-end: idea → execution → distribution → learning
- Helping Reo.Dev build a distinct, memorable, category-defining brand
What would help you excel at this job:

- Enjoy operating in early-stage environments with high ownership
- Prior experience in a creative agency is a plus
👯 What qualities we look for in our team members?
While there is no stencil for the type of people we like, there are a few traits that might make Reo.Dev a better fit for you. Reo.Dev might be a good fit if you:
- Work hard, hands-on and want to grow really fast.
- Care about your work a great deal, find it highly unsettling if the quality of work is even slightly sub-par.
- Execute fast.
- Are hands on (we will not have elaborate reporting structures for the foreseeable future and hopefully ever).
- Are someone people like to work with, low on ego, high on humility
- Have the ability to fail, learn and keep trying till you win. Start-ups are tough and we will not get everything right the first time

Consumer Insights & Creative Strategy Lead
Brands: ToppersNotes and Kidureka
Location: Jaipur
Type: Full-time
About the role
We are looking for someone who can understand a consumer deeply and turn that understanding into
advertising that feels instantly relevant.
At ToppersNotes, we help students prepare for competitive exams with focused study material. At
Kidureka, we create educational kits that children can build, explore and demonstrate. The audiences
are different, but the creative challenge is the same: understand what they care about, show how the
product helps, and earn their trust.
You will own the thinking behind our ads—from consumer research and campaign concepts to scripts,
production briefs and improvements based on results. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys
both strategy and writing.
What you will do:
- Study customers through interviews, reviews, social media comments, sales conversations and
campaign feedback.
- Identify specific motivations, frustrations, objections and buying triggers for different audience
segments.
- Develop ad concepts that connect a real consumer problem to a clear product benefit.
- Write compelling scripts for short video ads, creator-led content, demonstrations, testimonials and
brand campaigns.
- Write natural dialogue and strong hooks in Hindi, Hinglish and English, as appropriate for the audience.
- Work with product, marketing, creators and video teams to turn scripts into effective ads.
- Ensure that product claims are accurate, specific and supported by a demonstration or credible
evidence.
- Review campaign performance and consumer responses to refine scripts and develop new creative
angles.
- Build a growing library of consumer insights, tested messages and successful ad formats for both
brands.
What we are looking for:
- 4–8 years of experience in creative strategy, advertising, consumer research, brand content or
performance creative.
- Strong hands-on scriptwriting experience, especially for digital video.
- The ability to move beyond broad statements such as “students need better preparation” or “parents
want less screen time” and uncover the precise situation behind a buying decision.
- An understanding of consumer psychology, audience segmentation, brand positioning and direct-
response advertising.
- A strong ear for authentic Hindi/Hinglish dialogue. Your writing should sound like the people we are
speaking to.
- The ability to explain a product benefit simply and persuasively without exaggeration.
- Comfort using campaign data and qualitative feedback to improve creative work.
- Curiosity, good judgment and the willingness to speak directly with customers.
Experience in education, exam preparation, parenting, toys or D2C brands is useful, but the quality of
your thinking and writing matters more.
What success looks like?
Your ads should make the right consumer think, “That is exactly my problem.” They should then
understand why the product is relevant, see a believable reason to trust it, and feel mot ivated to take
the next step.
