BiteSpeed Raises $1.9 Million Seed Funding From Sequoia India's Surge


D2C Enabler BiteSpeed Raises Funds From Sequoia's Surge, CRED's Kunal Shah, Others
[Funding alert] BiteSpeed raises $275K in seed round led by Whiteboard Capital

Ā 

About the team

BiteSpeed started out in the dorm rooms of BITS Pilani when we hardly knew much about running a company, in fact most of us hadn’t written a line of code in our lives.

Ā 

We were inspired by companies like Postman and Freshworks which have built market leading software companies from India and had a desire to create something world-class which we could be proud of.

Ā 

So we jumped off the cliff and built a parachute on our way down (just as Reid Hoffman likes to say).

Ā 

Ā 

We could make a long, boring list of 20 company values but by now you probably do get a gist of the kind of people we are. We are young, ambitious self-learners on a journey to create a globally competitive software company from India.


About the role

We’re looking for a Technical Lead to join our founding team and lead our product development. If you’re someone who thrives on high ownership, can figure stuff out on your own and wants to be part of the zero-to-one journey, this might be for you.

Ā 

Years of experience: 4-10

Ā 

What you’ll do
Ā We’re at 10M requests per day, you’ll take us to 100M requests per day.

Ā 

  • Designing for scale: We have complex systems working overtime with a lot of moving pieces. It’s just going to get worse. We need to reimagine scalable & reusable LEGOs 🧩;
  • Setup DevOps: Rome was not built without discipline, and we’re not aiming for anything less. We’ve got a lot of ground to cover and we need your help šŸ› ;
  • Building the dream team: We need a Phil Jackson to get us a Rodman for our defence. A Dhoni to make our Rohit open. It’s going to be tough finding the right people and tougher putting them to the right work ;
  • Prioritise and delegate tasks: What tech debt to fix while also building for current business requirements? How to get it all done in time using limited resources? 🧐;
  • And after all of it of-course, be ready to jam to this every time we push to prod - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9QNUcrjtOsšŸ”„;

Ā 

Salary and Location

Expected CTC: 40-60LPA + Generous equity (ESOPs) Location: Remote
