Head of Manufacturing Designation: VP/SVP · Reports to: Co-founder & COO · Level: Leadership We are a Physical AI company building AI-powered sorting, grading, and packing machines for fresh produce, deployed across India and international markets (fruit packers, quick-commerce retailers, and international channel partners). We're scaling from build-to-order, partner-led manufacturing toward a repeatable, quality-certified production system that can hold up to global fruit-packer and retail-automation standards. We're looking for a Head of Manufacturing to own the full manufacturing function — internal build capability, our external manufacturing partner network, and the safety/quality discipline that lets us deploy machines confidently anywhere in the world. What You'll Own Plant/system-level problem-solving: Trace defects, yield loss, and downtime across our full commodity/machine-type portfolio (Sort, Pack, tray-packing robots) back to shared root causes in material flow, information flow, or supplier quality — and fix them at the source, not just on the machine in front of you.



The manufacturing roadmap: Decide which lines, machine types, and quality investments are worth building this quarter, and which aren't. Own the build-vs-partner call for each machine type and geography. Safety and quality as a system, not a checklist: Own plant-level QA/QC audit cadence, stop-the-line authority, and defect-recurrence prevention across shifts and machine lines — to the standard our international fruit-packer and retail customers expect, not just domestic compliance minimums. Vendor ecosystem maturity: Move our manufacturing partners from transactional (reliable delivery on committed orders) toward genuine capability partners, and eventually toward a dual-sourced, resilient network so no single vendor or component delay can stall a customer deployment. Capability building: Install standard work, training pathways, and problem-solving methodology so the shop floor gets bett
