Location: Remote (preferably based in India or Southeast Asia)
Duration: 12 weeks | Start Date: ASAP
Company: Trustbridge (a venture of Vulcury LLC)

About Trustbridge

Trustbridge is reinventing the way manufacturing work gets done. We connect companies with complex, custom part needs—think aerospace, medical, automotive, and hardware startups—to a vetted global network of manufacturers through smarter matching technology and concierge-level service.

We do this after providing design for manufacturing servicves, leveraging our team's extensive experience managing a global network of manufacturing suppliers, with various technologies, materials, and post-processing capabilities.

Our mission is to be the go-to platform for design and manufacturing sourcing, offering a better alternative to traditional reps and marketplaces.

Trustbridge is incubated by Vulcury, a U.S.-based venture studio founded by a former Deloitte strategy consultant and 3Diligent CEO. Our core operations are currently U.S.-based, but we're expanding aggressively into India and Southeast Asia, and this role is central to making that happen.

What You’ll Do

This isn’t your typical internship. You’ll act as a mini-GM or co-founder-in-training for our Asia operations, helping build and execute across product, growth, and operations. You’ll work directly with the CEO of Vulcury, our Vulcury Asia team lead, and the Trustbridge product and design team.

Your scope may include:

• Leading execution of our Asia market expansion strategy
• Sourcing and onboarding new manufacturing partners in India and Southeast Asia
• Helping shape our product roadmap by identifying regional user needs and operational pain points
• Driving growth initiatives, including email campaigns, sales outreach, and partnership development
• Collaborating with engineers, designers, and sourcing professionals to improve customer experience and supplier matching
• Supporting metrics development and local operational systems setup (CRMs, forms, payment flows, etc.)

What We’re Looking For

• MBA student or recent graduate, ideally with a background in manufacturing and supply chain, or exposure to it through consulting, private equity, or venture capital
• Strong bias for action – you roll up your sleeves and execute
• A mix of strategic thinking and operational hustle
• Interest in startups, marketplaces, and cross-border trade
• Located in (or highly familiar with) India or Southeast Asia markets
• Bonus: Substantial prior exposure to manufacturing or B2B marketplaces

Why This Role Matters

This is a rare opportunity to join a venture at an early stage and shape how it scales in a vital geography. You’ll:

• Learn from seasoned entrepreneurs and startup operators
• Build real-world growth, product, and leadership skills
• Play a key role in establishing a long-term presence in Asia
• Potentially transition into a full-time or extended leadership role post-internship

Job Type: Full-time
