DailyNinja - Supply Chain Manager

The Company

DailyNinja is a Bangalore based startup into subscription based Hyperlocal delivery. We are in a high growth phase with lots of cool stuff to be done. We count some well known startup entrepreneurs like NuVentures, Anupam Mittal (Shaadi.com), Kunal Shah (Freecharge), Aprameya Radhakrishna (TaxiForSure) amongst our investors.

The People

The founders, Sagar and Anurag have known each other for 9 years now. They have discussed multiple small and big ideas in these years but DailyNinja is something that they saw as a business that will have a long term impact on urban living. While Sagar put up the initial app in place, Anurag started doing mid-night deliveries. They have steadily replaced themselves in a lot of roles with people who have now build a system that did about 300K transactions last month.

We are now looking for more people to join our product team. There are 2 traits that matter for the team - high IQ and high commitment. - It's Weekend- is not really a reason to not answer vendor/customer/team calls. Asking questions is good but losing context is not. We are a consumer facing company, so we hope you know the general law of the land.
