Sprint With Sprinters
At Sprinto, your work has purpose — and your life has space. We are a workplace where you’re empowered to execute on your most ambitious ideas and deliver your best output in a fast-paced, innovative, and supportive environment.
 
Joining Sprinto means you will never run alone; you will always have the freedom to take your shot and the support to go farther than you imagined.
 
What The Role Involves?
 

Sprinto is building the operating system for trust — the platform that helps fast-growing companies run continuous compliance and turn security into a competitive advantage. As we enter our next stage of growth, we're hiring a GTM Entrepreneur in Residence to work directly with our co-founder on the company-level OKRs that move revenue. You won't be handed a brief — you'll be handed a problem, usually one that's been slowing growth or living unowned between two teams, and asked to diagnose it, own it end-to-end, and exit once it's scaling without you.

This is a builder seat with a strategist's mind. You'll alternate between fixing what's broken in our GTM execution and standing up the next 0→1 motion from scratch — moving fluidly between sales, partnerships, growth, and pricing, while operating with a systems view of the business: GTM, product, pricing, and org structure as one coupled engine, not four separate projects. The output of this role isn't a deck — it's a number on the company scorecard. We've designed it for past founders and senior commercial operators who want the optionality of a CXO trajectory inside scale, or the runway to found again with sharper instincts and a stronger network.


What Your Impact Will Look Like:
  • Fix what's broken in execution. When internal gaps slow growth — a leaky funnel, a broken handoff between marketing and sales, a function operating without sharp metrics, an upsell motion that isn't structured — step in, diagnose fast, and own the fix end-to-end. Not a recommendation. Not a framework. See it through, measure whether it actually moved the needle, then move on.

  • Stand up the 0→1. For initiatives that need a capability built from scratch — a new GTM motion, a new market, a new product surface, a new channel — hustle through the ambiguity, find what works, build the early foundation, staff it, and exit cleanly so it scales without you. You're the spark, not the engine.

  • Own a slice of the company OKRs and drive the number end-to-end. Not coordinating it. Owning it.

  • Re-architect commercial motions where they're under-structured today — upsell, pricing rollouts, professional services, partnerships — and build the operating cadence that makes them predictable.

  • Run targeted GTM bets from prospect identification to closed-won when the company needs a focused, founder-led push on a specific segment or set of accounts.

  • Fill leadership gaps in a function until the right full-time hire is in seat — and run a clean handover when they are.

  • Operate cross-functionally across product, marketing, sales, RevOps, and customer success — making the calls that need to be made and owning the outcomes.


  • What You’ll Bring To The Team:
  • Either of the following backgrounds —
  • Prior founder with a GTM-heavy focus (sales, partnerships, growth, or revenue operations) who has taken a 0→1 initiative from concept to traction, OR
  • 4–8 years of business experience in a GTM or commercial role (sales, BD, growth) at a high-growth Series B+ SaaS startup — Chief of Staff or Founder's Office experience is a plus but not a substitute for commercial ownership, OR
  • Founder's Office or Chief of Staff at a Unicorn-stage startup, where your work was directly tied to revenue or GTM outcomes — not just strategy and reporting.
  • Proven ability to own outcomes — you've been accountable for a number moving in the right direction.
  • GTM instincts — you understand how pipeline is built, how deals close, and how to work a room (or a cold sequence) to get things moving.
  • High bias for action with low tolerance for process overhead — you move fast, figure things out on the fly, and don't wait for a perfect brief.
  • Strong analytical foundation — you can size an opportunity, stress-test a business case, and make data-informed calls without needing a team to do the modeling.
  • Entrepreneurial grit — you've operated in resource-constrained environments, worn multiple hats, and shipped things that weren't fully defined when you started.
  • Effective cross-functional operator — you can align people without authority, communicate with brevity, and keep multiple workstreams moving simultaneously.

  • How We Care For Our Sprinters :
  • Work wherever you are: We’re 100% remote, so you get to choose if you want to work from home, cafe, hills or beaches.
  • Co-working, on the house: If co-working is your jam, we offer a generous annual allowance of up to INR 14,000 annually* for social working.

  • We count your spark, not your leaves: We care about you not just as an employee, but as a person. So if you need a reset, make use of Unlimited leaves.
  • Your Safety Net, Woven in: We take care of the what-ifs. From health insurance with coverage up to INR 10 lakh for you and your family, to accident protection of an additional INR 10 lakh, and life insurance worth 3× your annual salary, our benefits wrap you and your family in protection so you can focus on thriving.
  • Workspace setup of your dreams: Work from anywhere, and if that’s home, we’ll chip in INR 35,000 to help you create a space that’s as effortless as your workflow.
