SprintoHQ
Posted 2 years ago
Who are we?

Sprinto is an early stage SaaS startup in the information security "compliance" space. This is a flourishing space, but has not seen any innovation in the last couple of decades. Thanks to some macro-changes, we think the space is ripe for a market leader. Our job as founders and early team members is to ensure that Sprinto has a shot at this opportunity. 

Why work with us?
  • Sprinto has an experienced founding team. Prior to Sprinto, our co-founders (Girish and Raghu) built recruiterbox.com (now Trakstar). They bootstrapped recruiterbox from 2011 to 2017, and scaled it to 2500+ global customers and a team of ~45 people spread across India and US. At the end of 2017, Recruiterbox was acquired by Turn/River capital.
  • They wrote most of the early code at Recruiterbox, and remained among the top 5 committers even when the company ran at scale. They are engineers at heart and love building scalable systems for people to coordinate, work together and build great things together
  • Sprinto is well capitalised from top notch investors like Elevation, Accel &Blume. While you have all the advantages of working on challenging problems that come with working in a startup, you also don't have the risk of the company running out of money.
  • Last but not the least, stock options. While all early stage startups offer stock options, not all of them are the same. At Sprinto, we aren't satisfied with being just a large/successful company. We want to be the category leader. On a good outcome, your stint with Sprinto will leave you with no need to work for money and you only continue to work for passion.
