Job Description

Company Description

Lightyears Health is a fast-growing D2C nutraceutical brand selling across Blinkit, Amazon, Flipkart, Shopify, and a clinician/B2B channel. Quick-commerce (Blinkit) is a large and growing part of our business, with the tight replenishment and SLA demands that come with it. As we scale, reliable and cost-efficient fulfillment is central to our customer experience and our margins. We're looking for an owner — someone who treats the warehouse and the last mile as their personal P&L.

Role Description

This is a full-time, on-site role based in Mumbai. This role will oversee supply chain and inventory operations at LightYears, with the following functions:

Order Fulfillment

  • Working with warehouse manager to ensure all orders are picked, packed, and dispatched from the warehouse within defined SLAs across every channel (marketplace, quick-commerce, and own website).
  • Manage Blinkit quick-commerce fulfillment — timely dark-store/warehouse replenishment, inward norms, and adherence to tight quick-commerce SLAs and packaging/labeling requirements.
  • Monitor daily order queues and proactively clear backlogs, breaches, and exceptions before they affect the customer.
  • Maintain dispatch accuracy (right product, right quantity, right batch) and minimize mis-ships and damages.

Inventory Reconciliation

  • Reconcile monthly orders with inventory that left the warehouse.
  • Reconcile returns into the warehouse with returns claimed by delivery partners.
  • Reconcile B2B dispatches from warehouse with the PO quantities.
  • Ensuring warehouse team reconciles inward inventory with invoice values.

Supply Chain & Demand Planning

  • Ensuring inventory levels are acheived at central warehouse as well as with e-commerce partners.
  • Ensuring POs are placed in time with packaging and manufacturing partners.
  • Ensuring all our listings across e-commerce and DTC are adequately serviced in terms of inventory requirements.
  • Coordinating with manufacturing partners to optimize pricing as well as manufacturing standards.

Team Leadership

  • Lead, schedule, and supervise the warehouse team (1 warehouse manager and 4–5 pick-packers), setting daily targets and ensuring coverage.
  • Train the team on SOPs, accuracy, and safety; manage productivity and performance.

Peak & Sale-Event Readiness

  • Plan and execute fulfillment for high-volume periods — marketplace sale events (Big Billion Days, Great Indian Festival), quick-commerce spikes, and own-channel promotions.
  • Forecast manpower, packaging, and inventory needs ahead of peaks and coordinate with logistics partners for capacity.

Qualifications

  • Commerce and basic operations knowledge to manage e-commerce order flows, inventory, and coordination with logistics partners.
  • Strong analytical skills to track fulfillment metrics, identify bottlenecks, and improve accuracy and turnaround times.
  • Effective communication skills to collaborate with internal teams, vendors, and logistics partners, and to document processes clearly.
  • Experience in e-commerce, D2C, or warehouse/fulfillment operations preferred.
  • Proficiency with order management systems, e-commerce dashboards, and basic spreadsheets or reporting tools.
  • Bachelor's degree in business, commerce, supply chain, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Ability to work on-site in Mumbai, manage time effectively, and lead or guide junior team members where required.
  • Deep proficiency with Excel and preferable if they have knowledge of Tally.

Role Logistics.

  • This is an in-person role at our office in Lower Parel, Mumbai. We work 5 days in-office and 1 day remote.
  • Compensation details will be disclosed after the first round interview.
