Y Combinator Senior Manager - DAU Growth
About the Team
Meesho is the most downloaded e-commerce app in India. As part of the core Business and Product-Experience team, we are taking a massive leap from a purely transactional e-commerce platform to a destination for visual discovery and personal inspiration.
We are building an inspiration feed inside the Meesho app, focused on look-based, trend-based, and highly personalized inspiration across major lifestyle categories like Fashion, Home, and Beauty. Our team holds the end-to-end responsibility to figure out the supply of engaging content, establish content partnerships, and solve complex discovery and ranking problems to scale daily active users (DAU). We focus on personal growth, high-impact innovation, and thinking 10x.
About the Role

Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as the bridge between Content Creators, Category Marketing, Product, Data Science, and Seller Experience teams to seamlessly turn inspiration into purchasing behavior.
What you will need
Experience: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree with 5–8 years of experience in product-led growth, content ecosystem management, or digital discovery platforms.
