PreGrab

PreGrab is a venture that wants to tap into the pre-owned products market. We have kicked off from being a market-place for dealers of pre-owned products and will be primarily focusing on the needs of the buyers of these products. Once having established ourselves in our core business competencies, we aim to expand into B2B and C2C avenues. The problem we aim to solve is of the lack of reliability and visibility of these products from a buyer’s viewpoint. All the present arrangements in the market (online and offline) fail to provide these deliverables leaving the market highly untapped and the core problem unsolved.

In 1959, Dashrath Manjhi’s wife died because a mountain stood between his village and the nearest hospital.

He didn’t blame fate.
He picked up a hammer and a chisel.

For 22 years, he broke that mountain alone and built a road where none existed.

At topmate.io we are at our Mountain moment.

Our semi-monolithic architecture helped us move fast. Now, our exponential growth is testing its limits. Entropy is rising. Systems need to be reimagined, not patched.

We need our Manjhi!

We need someone who has been there and done that. While I love freshers, here we would need at least 3-4 years of experience folks in hardcore backend. Language and tech don't matter.

Ideal candidate - 4 years of experience working in a Series B startup who has seen their journey from the start.

If you have been through the phase where suddenly entropy increased, systems started to shatter due to unprecedented growth, and then you were the one to calm the systems down by revamping older services. Well, you are my ideal candidate!

Here is your chance to disrupt the creator economy and turn on it's head!
