LAKUSH
Program Manager - Founder's Staff

Founder's Office • BTM, Bangalore •Reporting directly to the Founder

What Lakush Is

Lakush is a bootstrapped prop-tech platform built by a serial founder with a track record of scaling multi-billion-dollar technology ventures. We exist for one reason: to help buyers win.

The traditional real estate market suffers from a deep trust deficit where incentives are stacked against the buyer. Lakush is building a relentlessly buyer-first platform. Starting with Bangalores residential primary market, we are executing a long-term expansion to build a pan-India and global presence.

We do not hire ordinary employees. We hire builders who own outcomes over job descriptions.. We want execution-minded people who ask: What needs to get done, and how do I make it happen?

Why This Role Exists

This is an execution-heavy operational role designed to optimize founder bandwidth and drive business performance. You will own core systems, build processes, and unblock execution bottlenecks across teams. you are here to build, execute, and deliver measurable bottom-line results.

What You Will Own

- Core Business Engines: Take complete control of our CRM, lead funnels, and daily sales team execution to drive continuous revenue growth.
- City Expansion and P&L;: Execute launch strategies in current markets, holding direct accountability for city-level P&L;, operational setup, and scaling.
- Tech-Driven Automation: Leverage GPTs, APIs, and workflow automations to remove friction and build scalable systems.
- Commercial Negotiations: Drive sharp negotiations with external vendors, software partners, and commercial allies to secure maximum value.
- Founder Bandwidth Optimization:



Act as an operational leverage point, owning cross-functional execution tasks that do not require founder-level intervention.

Evolving Scope

Current responsibilities reflect today's needs, but as Lakush scales, your scope will continuously expand. Working directly with the founder, you will tackle new operational challenges as they emerge. Success is measured by excellence in final outcomes.

Candidate Profile & Requirements

- Experience: 1 to 5 years of hands-on execution experience in a high-velocity environment. This is not a fresher role.
- Pedigree: Strong academic background (BITS Pilani, IITs, NITs, ISB, IIMs, or equivalent). This serves as a proxy for structural, analytical thinking combined with big-picture clarity.
- Relentless Ownership: You do not wait for step-by-step instructions or checklist approvals. You take full, end-to-end accountability for outcomes.
- Execution Machine: High bias for action. You move fast, eliminate operational bottlenecks instantly, and hit key metrics consistently.
- Tech Fluency: Comfortable leveraging modern AI tools, GPTs, and APIs to automate redundant workflows and scale team output.
- Commercial Drive: Strong negotiation skills with the ability to deal firmly with external vendors and software partners.
- Grounded Attitude: Down-to-earth always. Excellence must show up in your results, not your posture.



Cockiness with the founder or the team will not be tolerated.

Work Structure

- Location & Setup: Full-time, in-office role at BTM Layout 2nd stage, Bangalore.
- Working Rhythm: 6 days a week (Monday to Saturday) with Sundays off.
- Workplace Mindset: This is a high-intensity builders role, not a standard 9-to-6 job. It requires candidates who thrive on challenge and pace

Compensation Structure
Fixed : Rs 50,000 per month (6,00,000 per annum)

Variable : Rs 6,00,000 per annum, tied to collective KRAs set at the start of each financial year, paid out at financial year-end

Total CTC: Rs 12,00,000 per annum structured strictly 50% fixed / 50% variable

Review Cycle:

- Annual Alignment: Performance and variable payouts are evaluated annually, aligned with the Indian financial year (April March). Impact is measured over quarterly and annual horizons rather than month-to-month.
- Non-Negotiable Split: Fixed at 50% Fixed / 50% Variable. Requests for 70/30, 90/10, or alternative restructurings will not be considered.
- Uncapped Upside: There is no ceiling on performance payouts. Exceeding your target KRAs results in variable payouts above 100% of the allocated component. Exceptional results are rewarded proportionally.
- High-Performance Standard: Retention in this role requires consistent excellence. Average performance will not lead to role continuation.
- Equity Allocation (ESOPs): This position includes stock options, providing direct equity ownership in Lakush to align long-term value creation with company growth.
