🚨🐅⛵️HIRING - INDIA'S BEST WRITERS
For the last six years, our mission at Tigerfeathers has been to build a home for the most thoughtful writing and storytelling from India's tech ecosystem.
Today this is just one piece of a larger media and investing puzzle that'll be the first of its kind on the Subcontinent.
We have a bunch of awesome projects lined up for the next 12-18 months that includes ramping up the output on our existing channels (Tigerfeathers, Runtime, Next Up India); launching new IPs; expanding IRL; and creating a media ecosystem that justifies and amplifies the work of the most ambitious companies of our time.
The throughline that cuts across everything we do is Quality - that's it. Every time we hit publish we want to make sure that it counts, that we earn people's attention, and that we send waves of serendipity towards the people that trust us with their stories.
With that being said...
We're expanding the team - and looking to hire India's most cracked researchers, editors, writers and storytellers (ideally these roles should fit into one person).
Specifically, we're looking for:
- delusions of grandeur
- a relentless curiosity and optimism
- a visceral irritation with sub-par and sloppy work
- an ability to simultaneously teach and entertain (via your writing)
- a love of rabbit holes (and burrowing deep)
- an unreasonable commitment to making exceptional things (i.e. a love of the game)
- an assortment of weird interests across Indian tech, history, art, capitalism, culture, and everything in between.
You will work on some of the most exciting pieces and profiles about individuals, ideas and ventures that will define 21st century India; and you will work alongside people that count themselves as the best in the world at what they do. Also, the vibes in the group chat are immaculate.
If any of the above sounds like you, fill in the Google Form (linked below) and we'll get back to you asap.
PS: Several of our friends at India's best deep tech startups and funds are also looking to fill similar roles, so if we like your work but it turns out you're not the right fit for us, we'll do our best to find you another awesome home for your talents.
I love how the Pope's encyclical is so well-written that people sincerely believe it was written by AI, because the notion of being that well-educated and qualified for a leadership role is genuinely foreign to the general public.
@_sorrengailll My feedback this year was "comes off a bit arrogant? she should engage with team members socially more" so ur issue is that i dont wanna be friends with you?
@Trinhnomics We're headed for El Nino mid 2026. That's going to deeply affect the cane crop which means production itself will be down this szn + opening stocks are extremely low. We consume 28-30MMT ourselves. So its not just "burning food for fuel".
In the olden days, when ships used to dock in Mumbai, they used to tie their boats to the door at the harbour.
The Sanskrit word for tie is Bandh and for a door, is Dwar. So the place they tied a boat was called BandhDwar.
The word then travelled to Persia and became Bandar or Bunder. Which meant port or harbour
So any place in Mumbai which has the word Bunder in it, was a place where once upon a time boats used to dock.
So the place where boats used to dock and had a lot of sacks in it, became BoriBunder
The port where Palla or Hilsa fish was available became Palla Bunder, which then transformed to Apollo Bunder
The port where the Portuguese traded Horses with the Arabs, became Ghodbunder
And a port which had no particular significance was called Bunder. In Marathi, this became Vandre. Which over a period of time became what we
know today as Bandra
The word Bunder in Mumbai is not just a pointless word.
It actually represents Mumbai's maritime heritage and importance

Hi @Swiggy it’s impossible to speak to a real customer agent via your app. The AI bot doesn’t help at all. I don’t want to post the whole thing here so kindly get in touch! TIA
