Jet Metaphy Labs

A generalist at heart and craft 🤺 At Metaphy Labs, I took care of many projects right from ideation to execution. Here are a few areas I work on: 1. Product: I worked on Metaphy's new product offering, ToMoBo, a revenue intelligence platform. Imagine, as a salesperson, you had your own J.A.R.V.I.S. to help you across various sales pipeline stages. I helped in the ideation, building a clear product roadmap, copy of the entire platform, assisting the product designer with branding and design, building out growth experiments, and many more. 2. Customer Success: Built a solid process that ensures all our end users never face a hiccup while using the product. Being a user-centric organization, my role was to build a support ethos that forever keeps the customer at the center of any decision ❤️ 3. Culture: Building a solid foundation of culture here at Metaphy Labs which makes our company the most sought-after brand to work with. My role focused on fostering a solid employee experience and of course, maintaining a high employee retention. I also created the company ethos, its initial culture documentation and chalked out a list of perks and benefits that would create a one-in-a-million employer brand. 👾 Apart from these, I took care of a ton of tiny things such as copywriting, documentation, onboarding teardowns, market research, etc that came my way.

Cutshort

TL;DR: My entry to loving how SAAS companies work and how critical hiring the right people at the right time can compound the growth of companies. 🦸Superpowers built: Product thinking, strategic hiring, Employee experience Most of my work involved: 1. Consult founders, and CHROs to understand their current hiring gaps 🔬 2. Enabling companies to build hiring strategies that reduce the time & cost to hire ⌛💰 3. Helping companies build a self-sustainable employer brand Apart from this, here are a few projects I worked on at Cutshort 1. Boost the employee experience at Cutshort via Subcultures. The Memes subculture had taken off helping everyone at work unwind during the day. 2. Handling the sales hiring process end-to-end. Building a hiring experience for candidates rather than offering them "just another interview". Achieved a 95% acceptance ratio for every offer rolled out. 3. Built a base framework for partnerships at Cutshort that helped us crack a solid revenue partnership deal with WeWork helping create a baseline of sales opportunities worth 25L+ in the first month.
