Job Description
## Senior Associate Automation & IoT Sustainability Analyst (Ops)
**Department:** Automation & IoT for Farming - Operations & Execution | **Industry:** Urban Agriculture & Vertical Farming
**Location:** Mumbai | **Job Type:** Full-time | **CTC:** INR 15.5-33.2 LPA
### Role Overview
We are looking to onboard a Senior Associate Automation & IoT Sustainability Analyst (Ops) to strengthen our Automation & IoT for Farming - Operations & Execution function within Urban Agriculture & Vertical Farming. The role is positioned at the mid level and reports into the broader Automation & IoT for Farming - Operations & Execution charter.
### Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end delivery of tasks related to automation & iot for farming - operations & execution.
- Apply working knowledge of Operations and IoT for Agriculture to daily execution.
- Coordinate with cross-functional stakeholders within Urban Agriculture & Vertical Farming.
- Maintain documentation and reporting as required by the team lead.

### Additional Notes
Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. 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. There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy. Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. 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. Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done. 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.
