About SwiftSku

Management and analytics software for convenience stores. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

As a founding member, you will work directly with both founders Mit and Dan. SwiftSku’s marketing traction to date has been limited and we are looking for a superstar with a “get shit done attitude” and a tremendous degree of ownership to take our growth/marketing from zero to one. Our mom and pop target market has almost no online presence, but are a fairly tight knit demographic just waiting for a brilliant marketer to unlock.

What they're looking for

  • You’re a former Founder/Operator with at least 3 yrs of Growth/Marketing experience at a high-growth B2B startup and want to build a growth engine from scratch
  • You approach problems with a tools first mindset and are always looking for where AI can replace human efforts
  • You will have to figure out Offline Marketing Channels from scratch and then quickly scale whatever seems to work
  • You are a wizard when it comes to Data Mining & Enrichment. Our cold calling sales folks will count on you to produce quality data to cold call on day 1
  • You can build useful Salesforce reports in your sleep and then take data driven actions from your findings. You don’t live by “guess and check.”
  • You will have to figure out how to create virality within the tight knit community of Family Convenience Store Owners
More about this role

SwiftSku is a Y Combinator backed early stage startup. SwiftSku's cofounder, Mit Patel, grew up helping his family run their small convenience store doing all of the pen and paper work ranging from managing inventory and prices to bridging the language barrier between his immigrant parents and vendors. Mit’s family is just one of tens of thousands of immigrant owned convenience stores in the US where more than 85% of independent convenience stores are owned by Indian immigrants. These small mom and pop businesses desperately need our help to stay alive as big chains are gobbling up one family store after another.

SwiftSku not only keeps the mom and pops in business, but helps them to thrive with our complete backoffice ecosystem. Our mobile app and Point of Sale combination makes running their business easy like never before. Our space is not super sexy and has very few tech companies let alone startups. We’re looking for missionaries who want to make a real difference keeping family businesses alive in American society and globally.
