Most homes in India are still built by hand, on site, one brick at a time. We build them in a factory: each room is a steel-framed module, finished inside, then trucked to site and stacked. The dream is to build whole buildings the way you'd build a car. One day, towers. Next year we make our first six modules and stack them into a two-storey block. Our first real building. We're a small team, and most of what it takes doesn't exist yet. THE MACHINE Our first factory plan was a normal assembly line. It needed a long shed, a lot of people, and the know-how lived in their heads. So we turned it around: in the Jigcell, the module stays still and the work comes to it. THE JOB
• Design the Jigcell and the fixtures that hold every part of a module in place
• Get it made, check it as it goes up, and bring it into use
• As we build our first modules, fix whatever doesn't fit, so each one goes together more easily than the last
• Check the modules are solid enough to lift and stack (David reviews your numbers; an outside engineer signs them off) You'll work with David, who leads the design, and Yash, who runs the Jigcell. When we build the second Jigcell, you lead your side of it. YOU'VE PROBABLY
