Living Things is Looking for:
Living Things (by iCapotech Pvt Ltd) is a B2B SaaS platform that automates electricity bill tracking, analytics, and savings identification for enterprise clients across India. We aggregate bills from 30+ Discoms, run quality checks, generate consumption and penalty analytics, and surface savings opportunities through a single dashboard. Our clients include large corporates, real estate firms, and facility management companies.
Role Overview
We are looking for a Head of Operations & Delivery to own the entire post-sale client lifecycle — from deal sign to renewal and expansion. This is a 50% client-facing, 50% internal ops execution role. You will serve as the bridge between clients (CFO, ESG heads, admin heads) and the internal tech team, manage daily Discom bill download operations, drive proactive exception resolution, and lead and grow the operations team. You report directly to the CEO.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end client onboarding — site mapping, CA validation, bill download, QC, analytics generation, and dashboard delivery within committed TAT
- Manage daily bill download operations across 30+ Discoms — classify exceptions (tech failure vs. process failure vs. client input), coordinate fixes with the tech team, and communicate proactively to clients the same day
- Deliver weekly bill/data updates, monthly penalty MIS reports, and dependency highlights to clients on schedule
- Own the Change Request queue — assign IDs, SLAs, and owners; acknowledge within 1 business day; close within committed TAT
- Monitor account health (login frequency, dashboard usage, dependency ageing, CR sentiment, SLA breaches); flag at-risk accounts early
- Run monthly billing reconciliation between active sites and invoiced count; coordinate with Finance
- Manage 2–3 vendor and distribution partners — including MIS sharing, deal status tracking, and operational account maintenance
- Build, mentor, and hire the operations team (target: 8–15 across onboarding, QA, support, and customer success)
- Own and evolve operational SOPs, define SLAs, and automate what can be automated
- Identify upsell signals from penalty and usage data; flag opportunities to the sales team
Must-Have Requirements
- Engineering undergraduate degree — Electrical or Electronics strongly preferred; any engineering discipline considered
- 6–10 years of experience with at least 3 years leading operations or client delivery at a B2B SaaS company — NOT a product management background
- Proven track record of proactive exception management and same-day client communication under operational pressure
- Demonstrated ability to bridge between technical teams and client-facing stakeholders fluently in both directions
- Highly disciplined execution mindset — structured daily accountability with clear open/close ownership of tasks
- Experience delivering MIS reports and business reviews to CFO/ESG/admin-level enterprise stakeholders
- Team leadership in a lean or startup ops workplace — including hiring, ramping, and quantifying resource needs
- Partner/vendor management in an operations context
Good to Have
- Energy/utility domain knowledge — Discoms, tariff structures, power factor penalties, electricity billing
- MBA from a Tier 1/2 institute (IIM, IIT, XLRI, ISB, MDI, SPJIMR, or equivalent)
- Background in energy companies (Siemens, Honeywell, L&T;) or energy-adjacent SaaS (Urjanet, Arcadia Power, Zenatix)
- Familiarity with automated data pipelines — bots, scrapers, API integrations (diagnostic, not build)
- Experience with customer health scoring and churn prediction models
- Experience identifying upsell opportunities from operational and usage data
What We Offer
- Direct line to the CEO — your decisions shape company operations, not just execute them
- ESOPs in addition to fixed compensation
- High-ownership role at a rapid-growing SaaS startup with a meaningful sustainability mission
- Work alongside a technical co-founder/CTO building AI-driven automation into the platform
