Build inside an operating holding company.
ZeengoCorp Innovations hires engineers, designers, and growth operators across our six-sector portfolio. You hold meaningful equity in the portfolio company you primarily work in — not just options in the holding co — with standard 4-year vesting and a 1-year cliff.
We hire for curiosity and craft over pedigree, with no minimum years of experience on any role. We look at what you have made and how you think, not where you studied. The application path is direct — one email, one subject line, a written reply within seven business days. Below is the full hiring philosophy, compensation framework, and current open roles.
The four things we look for, in order.
ZeengoCorp's primary output is product in production. Not Notion documents. Not slide decks. Not roadmap reviews. The hiring criteria reflect that.
We are not Google. We are not even an accelerator-graduate at scale. We are an operating holding company shipping product on capital-efficient budgets. The work is real and intense and not the right fit for every career stage. Some people who could earn more elsewhere choose us because the equity grant in a portfolio company they actually help build is the largest financial outcome available to them.
We hire slowly. The average from first email to signed offer is six to eight weeks. We do not run a five-round panel — usually first reply, founder call, paired technical session, reference checks, offer. If we are not going to make an offer, we tell you within two weeks.
Craft over pedigree
We look at what you have made and how you think, not where you studied or how long you have worked. No role here has a minimum years requirement. Show us something you built and what you learned building it.
Ownership is non-negotiable
You own your area outright. We do not run a matrix org with three layers of sign-off. The trade-off is that you cannot blame the system when something doesn't ship.
Portfolio rotation is a feature
Senior engineers in particular rotate across two or three portfolio companies over a multi-year tenure. The cross-portfolio leverage we use commercially exists for team members too.
Honest about what we are
We are not Google. We are not even an accelerator graduate at scale. We are an operating holding company shipping product on capital-efficient budgets. The work is real and intense, and you will learn on live products rather than in training.
Market cash. Materially better equity.
We do not publish exact salary bands publicly because they shift per role, level, and portfolio company stage. But the framework is the same for every full-time hire — and the equity side is what makes the math interesting.
Market-rate cash
We pay competitively against early-stage VC-backed startups in India tech. Cash is not where we try to be different — equity is.
Equity in the portfolio company
Every full-time hire receives a meaningful equity grant in the portfolio company they primarily work in (Dial Master, NoteVault, or future ventures) — not just options in the holding co. Standard 4-year vesting with a 1-year cliff.
Equity is materially above VC-backed peers
Because we are not raising priced rounds on a fund-cycle dilution timeline, employee equity is materially less diluted than at comparable VC-backed startups. The percentages we grant are higher than market for the same role level.
Remote-first, Gurugram-optional
Remote-first across India for most roles. Working space available in Gurugram, Haryana for team members who want office presence. Some roles are Delhi NCR-preferred — flagged in role descriptions.
Learning budget + book budget
Per-team-member annual learning budget for courses, conferences, and books. No approval workflow — you spend it on what makes you better at your craft. Common usage: AWS/GCP certifications, design conferences, technical book budget.
Internal mobility across the portfolio
If you join Dial Master and after eighteen months want to work on NoteVault, we make that easy. Vesting transfers cleanly. The cross-portfolio leverage is a real feature, not a slogan.

Full-Stack Engineer
Remote · India · Engineering
Primarily on
Dial Master + portfolio rotation
Who this role suits
No minimum years and no degree filter. You are comfortable — or determined to get comfortable — with React/Next.js and Node, and you learn by building rather than by reading about it. A side project, a half-finished app, or a repo you are proud of tells us far more than a job title. If you can explain a decision you made and why, that is the signal we want.
Outcome we're hiring for
Own a meaningful slice of Dial Master's CRM and dialer surface. Rotate into NoteVault's encryption surface or ZeengoGPT's tooling layer after 12–18 months if you want.
Application — Full-Stack EngineerProduct Designer
Delhi NCR preferred · Hybrid · Design
Primarily on
Cross-portfolio · Dial Master + NoteVault + ZeengoGPT
Who this role suits
No minimum years. A portfolio link is the primary signal, and coursework, personal projects and redesigns of apps you use all count. You want to work across the full surface — research, IA, visual, motion and design-system upkeep — rather than specialise early.
Outcome we're hiring for
Own the visual and interaction system across two live products and one in build. Design system maintenance is part of the role, not a side quest. You will see your decisions in production weekly.
Application — Product DesignerGrowth & Marketing Lead
Remote · India · Growth
Primarily on
Dial Master (primary) + NoteVault (secondary)
Who this role suits
No minimum years. You are curious about how products actually find users — ASO, content, paid tests, partnerships — and willing to learn each one on live products rather than in theory. If you have run a campaign for a college fest, a community, or your own project, bring the numbers and what you learned from them.
Outcome we're hiring for
Own the growth motion for Dial Master end-to-end and oversee NoteVault's Play Store ASO. Direct line to the founder for budget and strategy decisions. No marketing layer between you and the product team.
