Mumbai, Maharashtra, India Xpandifi Full time US$ 80,000 - US$ 1,20,000 per year

About Xpandifi

Xpandifi is building a global platform to help Indian brands sell their products internationally. We're in the early stage, setting up the foundations of our logistics network, marketplace integrations and supplier base. It's a hands-on, high-momentum environment with the opportunity to shape something from the ground up.

We focus on small, high-potential products made in India — categories like wellness, beauty, apparel, babywear, home decor and accessories. Our goal is to remove the friction Indian brands face when trying to sell abroad. We manage everything from marketplace listings and cross-border shipping to customs, returns and warehousing in destination markets.

Xpandifi is part of BranchX, a company that builds AI-powered tools for retailers, distributors and financial institutions across India. While BranchX focuses on the domestic market, Xpandifi is its international arm — working to connect Indian-made products with global demand.

About the Role

We're looking for someone with deep experience in at least two or three of the following categories. You'll lead the effort to find export-ready Indian brands, onboard them into our system, and help drive their success on global platforms.


• Health and Wellness: supplements, teas, yoga products


• Beauty and Personal Care: soaps, solid skincare, natural grooming


• Apparel and Textile Clothing: kaftans, yoga wear, cotton basics


• Home Décor and Furnishing: cushions, table linens, kitchenware


• Jewellery and Fashion Accessories: silver, costume jewellery, leather items


• Baby and Kids: organic babywear, soft toys, gifting sets

We're especially interested in someone who already knows this space well. If you've worked closely with brands, factories or suppliers and know what sells internationally, this is a strong fit.

What You'll Be Doing


• Identify and onboard great Indian brands or manufacturing partners


• Build sourcing strategies across your assigned categories


• Guide suppliers on packaging, compliance and logistics readiness


• Coordinate with ops to prepare inventory for export


• Support product launches and listing strategies


• Stay connected to supplier performance and feedback

What We're Looking
For


• At least 5 years of experience in sourcing, category management or export sales


• Strong network of brands or suppliers in at least two core categories


• Familiarity with the packaging, compliance and QC needs for global shipping


• Hands-on approach with both strategy and day-to-day follow-up


• Clear communicator and confident relationship builder


• Bonus if you follow eCommerce trends or have worked in cross-border channels

Why This Role Matters

Xpandifi isn't just another aggregator. We're building a structured export platform designed for Indian brands ready to scale globally. This role is your chance to shape the product portfolio, lead the development of key categories, and have a direct impact on the company's growth from the start.

We offer competitive pay, performance-based rewards, flexibility on where you work, and the chance to grow with us as we build out the global team.
