Build Something That Matters

The energy transition is the defining engineering challenge of our generation. Battery storage is at its centre. GarudaVolt is building the team that will design, manufacture, and deploy the systems that make it happen.

Why Join Now?

We are a startup. That means your work will be visible, your decisions will count, and your growth will not be limited by a hierarchy built for a different era. It also means we will ask a lot of you.

If that sounds like the right exchange, read on.

Real Engineering Problems

Work on live challenges in one of the fastest-growing sectors in global energy.

🔭

Founding-Team Culture

Small, flat, and technically serious. No politics. No hierarchy for the sake of it.

📈

Competitive Compensation

Benchmarked to your skills, not your pedigree. [PLACEHOLDER: Define bands once HR policy is set]

🏗️

Build From Day One

A role in building something from the beginning — with all the challenge and ownership that comes with it.

What We Look For

We hire for curiosity, technical depth, and the ability to get things done without a fully mapped process. A degree from a good institution matters less to us than evidence that you understand the fundamentals and can apply them to new problems.

Current Openings

These are founding-level positions. The people who join now will shape how the company works.
