Job Description
About Zyeta:
Zyeta is a global workspace design and build company that integrates strategy, design, and technology to create workplaces that inspire people, elevate performance, and make lives better. We partner with leading global enterprises to deliver high-quality, immersive environments that reflect their culture and business vision. Our culture is defined by ownership, agility, and excellence, where speed, accountability, and teamwork form the foundation of everything we do. At Zyeta, leaders are doers. We believe in showing up, solving problems, and driving outcomes with clarity and conviction.
WE'RE BUILDING THE FUTURE OF Project Intelligence
And we need the person to build along with us!!
Role- Project Intelligence Lead
Reporting to Founders Office
Bangalore, India Full-Time
This is not a usual Project Manager role.
We are not looking for someone to track projects. We are looking for someone to redesign how Zyeta sees, understands, and acts on project data across every site, in real time. If you have ever looked at a construction dashboard and thought 'this is broken and I know how to fix it' read on.
The Problem We're Solving -
Zyeta runs complex, multi-city workspace design and build projects simultaneously. Right now, tracking these projects means navigating scattered spreadsheets, fragmented field reports, BIM files that don't talk to schedules, and dashboards that tell you what happened last week not what's about to go wrong tomorrow.
We want to build a central command center a real-time Project Control Tower that gives leadership and project teams one coherent view of every active project: live site progress, BIM vs. actual, schedule vs. cost, and the early warning signals that predict problems before they become crises.
Think: NASA Mission Control for construction.
Not a report. Not a dashboard. A living, breathing intelligence layer that makes Zyeta's entire project portfolio visible, predictable, and actionable from one room.
The Role:
You will own Zyeta's entire project intelligence function from data architecture to the experience design of the Control Tower itself. You will report directly to the Founders Office, which means you will have both the access and the accountability that most people in this field never get.
What you will build:
Zyeta's real-time Project Control Tower
A live data pipeline: site cloud dashboard
BIM vs. actual progress tracking system
Planned vs. actual schedule & cost layer
Early warning indicator framework
Project Intelligence Dashboard for leadership
Governance model for data accuracy & adoption
What you will own:
The entire digital PM experience at Zyeta
Tool selection, integration, and vendor decisions
Data standards across all project teams
PM capability building what gets measured, how
The roadmap: from MVP to full-scale deployment
The story leadership tells about every project
What You Will Actually Do:
In the first 30 days
Audit every existing data source, tool, and reporting process across active projects
Map the gaps: where does data die, get falsified, or never get captured?
Interview PMs, site teams, and leadership to understand the real pain not the stated pain
Pick one project and build the first working version of the Control Tower
In 3090 days
Integrate BIM, MSP/Primavera, and site capture tools into a single data layer
Design and launch the four-screen Control Tower experience
Build the early warning system: define indicators, thresholds, and trigger logic
Establish the governance model who owns what data, how it's verified, how disputes are resolved
Ongoing
Own the Project Intelligence Dashboard weekly cadence, leadership reviews, decision making layer
Continuously improve signal quality: reduce noise, increase predictive accuracy
Champion adoption across site teams make the system easy enough that people actually use it
Drive the long-term roadmap: AI-assisted delay prediction, AR overlays, automated progress detection
Who You Are:
We care more about how you think than where you studied. That said this role is genuinely hard. It sits at the intersection of systems design, data architecture, construction operations, and product thinking. You need to be strong in at least two of these and curious enough to grow in the rest.
You bring:
Systems thinking You see how tools connect into flows. You design data architectures, not just dashboards.
Construction operations knowledge You understand what a PM actually does on site RFIs, BIM, change control, schedule management. You've lived it, not just read about it.
Data fluency You are comfortable with Power BI, Tableau, or equivalent. You can define a data model and explain why structure matters.
Product instinct You design for the user whether that's a site engineer inputting progress or a founder reviewing portfolio health. You think about experience, not just functionality.
Ownership without hand-holding You figure things out. You make decisions with incomplete information. You ship, then improve.
Experience & Background:
Strong signal (not a checklist)
37 years in construction, real estate, or infrastructure project management
Hands-on experience with BIM tools (BIM 360, ACC, Revit, or equivalent)
Built or managed PMIS, MIS dashboards, or project reporting systems
Experience with scheduling tools: MS Project, Primavera, or equivalent
Has integrated tools not just used them across a data pipeline
Has driven a digital initiative from concept to live deployment
Bonus (genuinely exciting if you have this)
Experience with OpenSpace, Matterport, or similar site capture platforms
Exposure to IoT sensors, drone photogrammetry, or automated progress detection
Built or contributed to an AI/ML-assisted project analytics tool
Experience in a startup or high-growth environment where structure didn't exist yet
On qualifications:
An IIT/NIT/top-tier engineering background is a positive signal. But we have hired people without it who were exceptional, and we have met people with it who couldn't think their way out of a standard problem.
What matters: can you build this? Do you want to build this?
This Role is NOT for You If...
Be honest with yourself before you apply.
You are looking for a stable, process-driven PM role where the tools and systems already exist.
You are more comfortable executing within a defined system than designing a new one.
You need a manager to define your priorities week to week.
You think 'digital transformation' means buying a SaaS tool and training the team on it.
You want the title 'Head of Digital' but aren't ready to do the unglamorous work of cleaning data, fixing integrations, and convincing site teams to change their habits.
What Zyeta Offers:
The work
A genuinely hard, genuinely meaningful problem
Ownership of an entire function not a feature
Direct access to founders short feedback loops, fast decisions
A portfolio of real projects across multiple cities to build on
The chance to define how a fast growing company sees its own work
The environment
Zyeta's culture: ownership, agility, excellence
Leaders who are doers no bureaucracy for its own sake
Competitive compensation benchmarked to the role's seniority
Bangalore base with exposure to projects across India and globally
A company that is growing fast enough that your impact compounds
