Apply for this role here. Meet Flent Renting in India can be a nightmare. Think about it: visiting countless houses, arguing over rent, losing money to brokers, sticking to 11-month contracts, and spending lakhs of rupees into furnishing. It''s a lot, and honestly, we deserve better.
This is where Flent comes in. We''re creating a new standard of urban renting for India. Imagine walking into a home that feels like it's straight out of a lifestyle magazine - fully furnished, beautifully staged, all you need to bring is your clothes and your vibe. No need to persuade landlords, no dealing with brokers, and no 11-month lock-ins. It's not just a vision; it's what we believe the top 1% in India truly deserves.
We started Flent because we were fed up. Trying to find a decent place in the city was a nightmare. But beyond the frustration was a deep-seated passion for home decor and an eye for detail that we couldn''t ignore. Numbers revealed that ~$10 Bn is spent annually on urban renting - and that was the tipping point. It convinced us of the potential to craft the future of renting, designed for those who demand more and compromise less.
Flent is backed by top-tier VCs and angels. Since our inception in Jan'24, we've launched 110+ homes in Bangalore, went viral on X more than we imagined, and crossed $1,000,000 in annual GMV. Meet Your Team Hi, I'm Mohosin, and I lead Product Ops at Flent. My side of the house covers everything from inspecting and scoping homes to lining up vendors, moving materials, and fixing whatever goes sideways on-ground. Setting up and running homes here has taught me one thing the hard way: good design and furniture get you eyeballs. Good functionality gets you customers who stay. I think of this job like a doctor's. Every home is a patient. You diagnose what's wrong, fix it properly, and make sure it doesn't fall sick again. Anyone who's actually maintained homes at scale knows how much skill that takes. I'm looking for someone who gets that this isn't checkbox ops. It's knowing the homes we take on better than the people who built them. If you handle chaos calmly, think from first principles, and find a way when there isn't one, keep reading. About this Role As an Ops Associate (Setup & Fixtures), you own the transformation of a raw house into a functional Flent home. The moment a home is assigned to you, it's yours. You document its condition, scope the work, line up vendors, get materials on site, hold the budget, and hand over a finished home on schedule. You'll also run the two engines that keep everything else moving. The vendor network: onboarding partners, arranging training, and holding everyone to the Flent standard. The material inventory: electrical, carpentry, plumbing, cleaning supplies. You track what we have, what we're using, and what to buy next, so no setup ever stalls waiting on a hinge.
