Founder's Office Intern - Operations & Strategy

At CRA, we're creating purpose-engineered solutions that power the Energy and Defense sectors. As an integrated engineering powerhouse, we design, engineer, and manufacture everything in-house, giving us unmatched control over quality and innovation. Industry leaders trust our solutions, including BrahMos Aerospace, ONGC, OIL, Indian Air Force, and Schlumberger.

We've entered an extraordinary growth phase, tripling in size over the last three years. Today, with a team strength of 100, we're positioned at the intersection of two rapidly expanding sectors.

We're looking for a Founder's Office Intern to work closely with the founder and leadership team on high-priority operational projects. Unlike a typical intern, this role is execution-first . You'll be hands-on in day-to-day operations, helping build scalable systems and ensuring initiatives run smoothly. This is a unique opportunity to get a front-row seat to how a high-growth engineering company runs and scales from the inside out.

What You'll Work On

• Document & Presentation Prep : Draft, format and refine briefs, reports and slide decks for the founder and strategy team.
• Operational Execution : Support key cross-functional initiatives—coordinating between teams, tracking progress, solving blockers, and ensuring on-ground execution of strategic priorities.
• Process Building : Help create and document workflows that increase efficiency and reduce friction across departments like manufacturing, supply chain, HR, and finance.
• Data & Reporting : Collect, clean, and analyze operational data to support decision-making. Help create dashboards, reports, and insights for the founder and leadership team.
• Project Management : Track the status of key projects, follow up with stakeholders, and ensure deliverables are met on time.
• Strategic Support : Assist the strategy team with research, analysis, and preparation of materials, though your primary focus will be operational delivery.
• Founder Support : Be a go-to execution partner for the founder on high-priority tasks—think of this as a high-responsibility generalist role with exposure across functions.
