Role Overview

Anand Gandhi

As we prepare to bring the first slate of Maya products into the world, we are looking for a Logistics Manager to helm and streamline the entire physical product supply chain. From component sourcing and print production to storage, dispatch, and international fulfilment, you will be responsible for it all.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the end-to-end logistics lifecycle for all Maya Universe products – including board games, books, and merchandise – from prototyping and vendor sourcing to final delivery.
• Coordinate across international and domestic vendors, including printers, suppliers, and packaging partners.
• Manage inventory across multiple SKUs and locations while ensuring quality control, accuracy, and accountability.
• Liaise with freight forwarders, customs agents, and fulfilment partners to ensure smooth import-export operations.
• Forecast and plan logistics workflows aligned with product launch calendars, marketing campaigns, and sales forecasts.
• Design and optimize systems for assembly, packaging, warehousing, and dispatch (both direct-to-consumer and retail).
• Build robust systems for tracking movement, costs, timelines, and delivery performance across channels.
• Collaborate closely with creative and production teams to ensure packaging and quality standards are upheld.
• Manage relationships with crowdfunding fulfilment platforms such as BackerKit or PledgeManager.

Who We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of experience in logistics, supply chain, or operations management.
• Demonstrated experience in launching physical products at scale – ideally in publishing, board games, toys, or FMCG.
• Deep understanding of printing, packaging, and customs workflows, especially for international shipments.
• Strong analytical and forecasting skills, with experience managing multi-SKU inventory and fulfilment cycles.
• Proficient with Excel and AI-savvy.
• Excellent negotiation, communication, and vendor management skills.
• Based in Goa or willing to relocate.

Bonus Points

• You’ve previously worked on the launch of IP-driven physical products – especially in the games or publishing space.
• You understand the nuances of crowdfunding fulfilment, including tiered reward structures and staggered shipping.
• You’re a fan of speculative fiction, storytelling, or board games yourself.
