About us
Zenskar is building a new-age billing and pricing infrastructure for SaaS companies. As SaaS pricing evolves from vanilla subscription-based models to more granular usage-based models, the billing and pricing infrastructure needs to be completely reimagined. Zenskar is founded by Apurv Bansal and Saurabh Agrawal, who sold their previous startups to Snapdeal and Gaana, respectively. They have experience at organizations such as Google, Basepair, Elevation Capital, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and Harvard Business School. We are funded by marquee global investors, including Bessemer Venture Partners. We are building our founding team and are looking for folks who are excited about learning and meaningfully shaping the trajectory of an early-stage startup from Day 0 in its journey.
