ABOUT MAKER BHAVAN FOUNDATION

Maker Bhavan Foundation* (MBF) is a non-profit organisation on a mission to transform India's 2 million annual engineering graduates from passive learners into confident makers, inventors, and problem-solvers. We believe India's path to a $30 trillion economy runs through a generation that builds, not one that simply executes.

Our programmes span about 30 Tinkerers' Labs (academic makerspaces across India), InventX (a residential invention bootcamp with 129+ patents filed), and the Vishwakarma Awards (a national hardware innovation challenge). Through Project PRACTICE, in partnership with AICTE, we are scaling this ecosystem to 1,000 colleges and 5 lakh students by 2028.

This is an organisation for people who want their work to matter.

THE ROLE

STEM Shiksha Foundation is seeking a highly organized and proactive HR Manager to own the end-to-end employee lifecycle for our growing team, with light oversight of office administration. This is an execution-heavy role for someone who enjoys building order out of chaos and owns initiatives from recruitment and onboarding to policy rollout and performance tracking. You will be the backbone of our people processes, while also keeping our digital workspace and office running smoothly. We need a "doer" who is equally comfortable running a recruitment funnel and managing Google Workspace access.

• Event Coordination: Support leadership in organizing internal meetings, workshops, or stakeholder visits.
