Job description

What do we do : ShopDeck helps e-commerce merchants set up and manage their D2C

storefront "profitably".

Proposition for merchants : D2C selling made as easy as selling on e-com marketplaces.

Why build this

  • India's D2C wave has been limited to venture-funded D2C brands today
  • The art of selling on your own website is not democratised. There are 500k-1M sellers

who can sell D2C but can at best sell on marketplaces

  • Philosophically - we feel brand owners should spend most of their time on the product

    • and not on channel optimization

  • Shopify / Status-quo software solve for work-flow management of storefront but don't

    • do enough on "helping" merchants sell well!

    Our proposition

    We have a software + services proposition for the merchant with the goal of optimising for the

    merchant&aposs profitability.Our product is an all-in-one software stack that gives merchants

    everything they need to sell D2C, i.e. Storefront, Shipping, Marketing integrations,

    Communication. Our services layer works on top of this software stack to achieve profitability

    for merchants. Here, we combine 4-key roles in classic e-commerce setup, all relevant for any

    D2C Brand As Well

  • Marketing manager ("top of the funnel")
  • Category manager ("products / merchandising")
  • Product manager ("website / app metrics")
  • Ops manager ("shipping metrics")

    • Our services layer measures metrics across all these buckets to optimise and take appropriate

    actions for merchant's profitability.Over time, the goal is to productize our services layer - which

    we believe will move the baseline of what merchants expect from a storefront software.

    How will this role shape you

    If running one business is challenging, imagine enabling the growth of dozens. As the face of

    ShopDeck to our merchants, you won't just drive sales — you'll actively shape the future of D2C in

    India. This role builds your skills across sales leadership, stakeholder management, performance

    coaching, and category ownership.

    With rapid growth, a high-performing team, and a mission to empower e-commerce, this is your

    opportunity to create impact, drive scale, and grow as a leader.
