We are building a large-scale institutional and market engagement ecosystem across India and globally as part of our organisation's massive expansion strategy.

We plan to engage colleges, universities, and student communities through conceptual programs, knowledge initiatives, talent discovery models, and large-scale interventions that create measurable value for students, industry, and society.. Also, we are looking at interacting with business-to-business prospects across India and the globe to position our application services as a unique proposition.

We are looking for intellectually curious young professionals who can study academic and market ecosystems, engage institutional leadership, develop participation strategies and represent our organisation before colleges, universities and also the software market.

Key Responsibilities:

- Develop an institutional chance landscape covering universities, colleges, academic networks and student communities in India and selected international markets. Assess their strategic relevance and determine where meaningful partnerships can be created around talent, technology, education and social-impact programs.
- Act as the organisations strategic interface with academia. Build credible relationships with institutional decision-makers and campus influencers, and communicate the organisation’s vision, technological work and proposed initiatives in a manner that is transparent, relevant and persuasive to each audience.
- Decode how institutions and students make participation decisions. Examine approval structures, behavioural motivations, communication preferences and barriers to involvement, and use these insights to shape outreach models that produce committed participants rather than superficial enrolments.




- Evaluate the end-to-end participant journey—from the first institutional conversation and student awareness to enrolment, active involvement, program completion and continued association. Use evidence from each stage to locate drop-offs, recognise behavioural trends and improve participation quality.
- Create an intelligence-led talent radar capable of identifying promising students across disciplines, institutions and regions. Convert program and engagement data into management reports that reveal talent concentrations, institutional responsiveness, participant behaviour and possibilities for wider expansion.
- Represent the organisation extensively by visiting institutions, interact with key stakeholders and take ownership of on-site discussions wherever physical presence is essential for establishing credibility or advancing an initiative.
- Undertake structured market-discovery assignments involving potential customers. Capture how prospective organisations currently operate, the problems affecting their performance, the capabilities they require from technology and their response to proposed applications or concepts.
- Contribute to prospect development and business engagement. Maintain purposeful follow-up with identified organisations, create awareness of the organisation’s capabilities and bring suitable decision-makers into company events, technology showcases,



product discussions and focused business forums.
