About SOLARA
SOLARA is a fast-growing D2 C consumer brand in the home & kitchen space, selling across Amazon, Flipkart, Blinkit, Zepto, and our own Shopify storefront. We design and build products people use every day — cookware, small kitchen appliances, and drinkware — and we're scaling rapidly across both marketplace and quick-commerce channels.

- Manage quality & compliance — set QC standards, manage inspections, and ensure BIS and other regulatory compliance for kitchen and electrical appliance categories.
- Run the sourcing calendar — plan procurement against demand and channel forecasts; manage lead times, inventory risk, and supplier capacity.
- De-risk the supply chain — develop multiple supplier options, reduc
