Location: Ahmedabad, Mumbai or Guwahati
Work Mode: Hybrid (coordination with central and ground teams + occasional on-ground oversight); Full-time
What’s exciting about this role?
Imagine leading a program that can change the trajectory of a young naari’s future in Ahmedabad or Guwahati, someone who may never have been told that AI, technology, and ambitious careers could belong to her too. We’re building a program in partnership with Ashoka University’s Centre for Social & Behavioral Change to move the needle for young women from underserved communities and prepare them for the future of work.
This is not a traditional operations role. You will be responsible for setting up and running the program end-to-end in new cities (Ahmedabad & Guwahati) – from building partnerships and teams to ensuring batches run smoothly.
What does that mean for you? As Project Lead, you get the chance to:
- Set up and anchor partnerships in 2 new geographies
- Lead the journey of choosing the right learners for the program
- Oversee strong delivery across training, mentoring, and live project components
- Work with central team to track impact journeys and improve program experience
- Proactively handle compliance, reporting, and documentation standards
About Nimaya Foundation
Nimaya is a future-ready not-for-profit cofounded in 2021 by Navya Nanda and Samyak Chakrabarty, focused on preparing young women from socio-economic barriers for a world of work being rapidly reshaped by AI and emerging technologies.
As GenAI transforms industries, workflows and hiring expectations, Nimaya works at the intersection of employability and AI readiness to ensure our Nimaya naaris are not replaced by AI, but instead are equipped to participate and lead in this new economy.
In partnership with institutions such as the Government of India’s Yuva AI mission, we have enabled 10,000+ Nimaya Naaris across 5 states to step into the new world of work with our flagship program – the GenAI Ready Naari.
Nimaya’s GenAI Ready Naari Program
The GenAI Ready Naari Program equips young women with Generative AI skills and future-ready workplace competencies through 40 hours of immersive, hands-on learning, out of which 32 hours is offline training and 8 hours is online. In these sessions, Naaris explore:
- Building Chatbots & training Agentic AIs
- AI-powered research & communication tactics
- Creative problem-solving
- Presentation & collaboration skills
- Real-world projects & mentorship
The goal is not just to teach AI tools but to make learners truly future ready for what the modern workplace demands- the ability to confidently work with AI instead of feeling threatened by it.
