Position : General Manager- Sales
Location : Mumbai / Pune
At DigitalPaani, we're building the future of water to help meet up to 65% of urban water needs and solve the growing water and climate crisis across the world. Today, 75% of the wastewater treatment facilities (STPs / ETPs) in factories and buildings don't work properly because the expertise and data to handle such complex operations doesn't exist at the ground level. Our IoT-enabled software platform for water is serving this $17 billion opportunity by managing the complete operations cycle for each one of these facilities and transforming them into compliant units delivering high quality water. We've been awarded by Cartier, Niti Aayog and FICCI for our innovative approach, backed by international investors like Elemental Excelerator (first Asian company in their portfolio!), and serve top-tier clients like Amazon, Reliance, Tata Power, Taj Hotels, and more.
