  • Everything Needs to Be Built: From Finance SOPs and internal controls to barcoding, revenue tracking, and payout mechanisms, you’ll be the architect.
  • Operations x Tech x Finance: You’ll work closely with the founder, tech team, and ops heads to make sure every rupee and kg is traceable, compliant, and optimised.

  • Automate recurring finance workflows (POs, e-way bills, vendor payments, etc.)
  • Build cost-control systems across warehousing, fleet, labor, and tech


Qualifications

  • CA / MBA Finance / CFA preferred
  • 8–15 years of experience in VC-backed startups / e-commerce / logistics / recycling / fintech
