Nimuki – D2C Kidswear Brand (by Purrple Orryx, Dubai)

About Nimuki

Nimuki is an upcoming D2C kidswear brand being built for the Indian market.

We are currently in the pre-launch stage — setting up supply, operations, and the core team from scratch. Nimuki is backed by Purrple Orryx (Dubai-based business), and India will be its primary growth market.

There is no “existing system” here yet, we’re building everything from the ground up.

Why this role exists

We are looking for someone who can own the India business end-to-end not manage it later, but build it from day 0.

This role exists so the business can run independently on-ground in Kolkata, without constant founder intervention.

You will act as the operational backbone of Nimuki India.

What this role really is

This is not a corporate BM role.

• There are no fixed systems yet
• There will be ambiguity
• You will create structure where none exists

You are the operator who makes things happen daily

What you will own

• End-to-end India operations (from production to delivery)
• Supplier coordination: sampling, production timelines, QC
• Launch planning and execution
• Shopify + payments + logistics readiness
• 3PL setup, dispatch, returns, and reconciliation
• Inventory accuracy and stock planning
• Customer experience and issue resolution
• Managing a small internal team + freelancers
• Building SOPs for all core workflows
• Weekly reporting and business dashboards
• Working capital discipline and inventory control

What success looks like (first 90 days)

You will help bring Nimuki to life with:

• A clear launch calendar
• Supplier + production tracking systems
• SKU master + inventory structure
• 3PL onboarding and dispatch workflows
• Returns and exchange processes
• Weekly founder dashboards
• A stable, low-chaos launch

Ongoing KPIs

• Launch goes live on time
• Stock accuracy > 98%
• Dispatch SLA adherence > 95%
• Smooth returns/refunds within timelines
• No major operational breakdowns
• Inventory and cash flow under control

Who we’re looking for

• 5–8 years of experience
• Background in D2C, e-commerce, apparel, or consumer brands
• Strong in execution across multiple functions
• Understands inventory, logistics, and basic P&L
• Comfortable working closely with manufacturers and warehouses
• Based in Kolkata (or willing to relocate)
• Hands-on with Excel / Google Sheets (Shopify familiarity is a plus)

Must-have traits

• Operator mindset (not just planner)
• Detail-obsessed
• Strong follow-up discipline
• Calm under pressure
• Comfortable with ambiguity
• Takes ownership without waiting for instructions
• Communicates clearly with founders

This role is NOT for

• Pure strategy / MBA-only profiles
• People with only marketplace experience (no D2C ownership)
• Agency-only backgrounds
• Candidates expecting structured corporate setups
• Title-driven applicants

Why join Nimuki

• Build a brand from zero to launch
• High ownership from day one
• Work directly with founders
• Shape systems, not just follow them
• Be part of the founding team in India

If you’ve operated or built something before and want to do it again and from scratch this time — we’d love to speak.
