The roleYou work directly with the Director. You are the one point of contact for everything that must get done: finance, operations, hiring and follow-up. You use Claude Code and Codex every day to do the work of a small team.

What you will doYou own outcomes, not tasks. The work falls in six areas.

- Finance and accounting. Review the books in Tally every month. Prepare the monthly MIS: profit, cash flow, debtors, creditors and stock. Track GST, TDS and other filings with the CA. Prepare the packs that banks and auditors ask for.
- Plant operations. Track production, raw material, stock and dispatch from the office, through the ERP and the plant's reports. Find delays and extra costs, and fix them with the plant team.
- Hiring. Run hiring from start to finish: job posts, screening, interviews, offers and joining. Work with HR on payroll and attendance.
- Getting things done. Turn each decision of the Director into tasks, each with an owner and a deadline. Follow up until each task is closed. Send the Director a short status every week.
- One point of contact. Deal with banks, CAs, lawyers, consultants, suppliers, customers and government offices for the Director.
- AI-first work. Use Claude Code and Codex to build reports, reconciliations and checks that run without manual work. Keep them running and improve them.

Who you areYou must have all of these.
- Education: a degree from a tier-1 or tier-2 institution, such as an IIM, IIT, NIT or DCE (now DTU). An engineering degree or a CA qualification is preferred.
- Experience: 2–3 years of full-time work, for example in a Big 4 firm, a CA firm, consulting, a founder's office or a Chief of Staff role.
- Finance and accounting: you read a balance sheet, a P&L; and a cash flow statement with ease. You know the basics of GST and TDS. You are rapid in Excel. Tally is a plus; if you do not know it,



you learn it in the first month.
- Software and AI tools: you know how an ERP works, or you are willing to learn it. You adapt fast to new software and know what is on the market, such as ClickUp, Zoho and new AI tools. You already use Claude Code and Codex, or similar tools, for real work. The selection tests this.
- Problem solving: you break a messy problem into steps, check the numbers and find the root cause. The selection tests this too.
- Language: clear English for banks and auditors, and Hindi for the plant team.
- Ownership: you finish what you start, without reminders.

Before you apply
- You do not need plant experience. You learn how the plant runs, from raw material to dispatch, on the job. You must want to learn it.
- This is not a 9-to-5 job. You must be reachable for urgent matters at any time, including evenings and weekends.
- This is an office job. You work from the office, not on the shop floor.
- The pace is high. You handle many subjects at once, and the Director expects results every week.

How we selectThe selection has several rounds. Each round tests what you can do, not what your CV says.
1. Apply. Send your CV and a note of up to 200 words to [email protected]. In the note, describe one problem that you solved with Claude Code, Codex or a similar AI tool.
2. Problem solving. You solve logic and numbers questions on the spot.
3. Case test, 48 hours. You get a set of accounts and plant data with a problem in it. Solve it with Claude Code or Codex. Send the answer and the steps you took.
4. Manufacturing situations. You get practical situations from a plant, for example stock that does not match the books, a late dispatch or a supplier who misses a delivery. Say what you would do, and in what order.
5. Interview with the Director. Walk through your case answer. Expect questions on finance, numbers and judgement.
