Job Description
Looking for a Principal Environmental Compliance (Metallurgy) Metallurgist (QA) who's genuinely interested in Environmental Compliance (Metallurgy) - Quality & Compliance and wants to make an impact from day one.
You'll be working out of Kochi (full-time), and honestly, the day-to-day is going to revolve around Quality Control (Metals) and Supply Chain Coordination. We're not looking for someone who just ticks boxes - we want someone who actually cares about environmental compliance (metallurgy) - quality & compliance.
On paper, we'd expect M.Tech (Metallurgy) and somewhere around 12 years of experience, but we're just as interested in how you think as in what's on your resume.
Pay-wise, we're offering INR 17.0-54.2 LPA - fair for the senior level band and open to discussion based on what you bring.
High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months. New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage.
Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.
Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions.
Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone.
Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay.
Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager.
The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.
Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function. Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band.
Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval. Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process.
Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments.
There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.
Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process.
Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy.
