About TorqWars
TorqWars is building India's competitive RC racing. We are a sports-entertainment business running on three engines: experience-led arenas with timed racing, a league, and a D2C store for RC cars and parts. Our first arena opens soon in Bandra, Mumbai, and we are backed by The Foundery. You will work directly with the founders and own how your function is built from the ground up.
Role overview
You will own the TorqWars player community and our events: tournaments, leagues, racing events and brand activations. You will grow a community of players who come back, compete and bring their friends, and turn our events into a format we can run across every arena.
Community
- Build and manage the player community: how people discover us, sign up, play, return and refer others.
- Run community channels such as WhatsApp groups, Instagram and Discord.
- Build ambassador, creator, campus and hobby-club programmes.
- Create community content with the creative team: player stories, event recaps, leaderboards and rivalries.
Events
- Design event and tournament formats: rules, heats, scoring and run of show.
- Manage production: staging, timing, sound, lights and the safety plan.
- Source and brief vendors and event crew, and lead on the day.
- Run a post-event review after every event and apply the learnings.
KPIs
Active returning players, new players per event, organic sign-ups without paid ads, events delivered on time and safely, and participant feedback.
Requirements
- Experience across community management, field or experiential marketing, and live events. Senior candidates welcome, and so are 3–5 year candidates who have built a community themselves.
- Proof of retention: repeat attendance, retention or referral numbers, not just reach.
- Has owned events end to end: budget, vendors, run of show and on-ground management.
- Has built a programme or format that kept running after you moved on.
- Willing to be on the ground at events, including evenings and weekends.
Good to have
Motorsport, RC, karting, gaming or esports. Campus and youth marketing. Sports or brand partnerships. Startup or founder experience.
What we offer
Ownership of community and events from day one, 0.1–0.5% ESOPs, direct work with the founders, and the chance to build a new sport in India.
Hiring process
A short AI interview, a call with a founder, a short assignment, an in-person meeting in Mumbai with reference checks, a final conversation with our co-founder, and an offer within 2 weeks of the first call.
