Job description

Committed to our Mother Earth, Baghiraa is a spark, or "Ek Chingari" in Hindi. We pursue working and fulfilling business and lifestyle models of success to be shared. There are three subsidiaries within Baghiraa - Sanrachna Steel, Baghiraa Café & CoWork and Baghiraa Earth Labs.

Baghiraa is headquartered in Atlanta, USA. Our corporate offices are in Broomfield, USA, Bangalore, India and Amsterdam, Netherlands. Collectively, we will achieve a healthy space for all creatures within the Baghiraa umbrella whilst we are actively expanding our footprint to better meet the needs of our clientele.

Located in a bustling city Bangalore, India, Baghiraa has made extensive efforts in turning one of its offices in India into a minimal waste facility that is over 90% plastic free. The challenge will be extensive in the US locations to mirror this same practice (considering the US as a nation and culture operates on extensive waste in the name of convenience) but this effort, in essence, is the core of our company’s culture.

The company has recently acquired parcels of land in both Atlanta, GA and in Broomfield, CO with buildout plans to follow best-practice sustainability principles, such as Earthship Architecture. We plan to use as close to 100% recycled or reused materials as we can. The sites will consist of office space for employees, a co-working space for the community, residential quarters for employees, a walk-up café/juice bar with outdoor seating for the community, an outdoor multi-use kitchen, as well as a beautiful garden and habitat for various farm animals. Ultimately, the goal of our offices is to become a model for sustainability practices in construction that promote healthy living. Additionally, the locations will serve as educational resource centers for the use of recycled goods, in conjunction with a site to supply recycled materials to the community. In doing this, we aim to make recycled materials more available to the public and the construction industry.
