Work closely with branding and operations teams to ensure the concept is efficient, deliverable, and true to its Indian roots.
Assist in building an ingredient supply chain and ensuring menu consistency for future sites.

Experience in fast food, QSR, or large-scale production kitchens is highly desirable.
Able to work autonomously to design menus, create processes, and guide operational setup.
Excellent technical understanding of kitchen systems, equipment, and workflow design.
Innovative, energetic, and excited about shaping a new brand identity.
