Founder's Office – Strategy, GTM & Corporate Development

Founder's Office – Strategy, GTM & Corporate Development

Location: Bengaluru, India (Hybrid)

Experience: 2–5 years

Function: Founder's Office | Strategy, GTM & Corporate Development

About RagaAIRagaAI is a venture-backed startup ($4.7M seed funding) building the world's #1 AI testing platform. We help enterprises mitigate AI risks and ensure model security and reliability through automated testing and diagnosis.

The RoleWe are looking for a high-caliber Founder's Office professional to work directly with the founder across company strategy, go-to-market, fundraising, investor engagement, and strategic partnerships.

You will act as a force multiplier for the founder and sales leadership. The ideal candidate is comfortable moving between a market analysis, a GTM plan, an investor conversation, and a financial model — often in the same day.

This is not a strategy-only role. You will own projects from problem definition → analysis → recommendation → execution.

Work Model & ScheduleA significant share of our customers and investors are US-based, so this is not a typical 9-to-5 role. You should be comfortable with a flexible schedule that regularly includes evening and night hours to overlap with US stakeholders. We offer a hybrid model with a modern Bengaluru office and full autonomy to manage your schedule around US time-zone collaboration.
