Compliance & Policy Intern

The role

Waste rules in India are changing fast, and most of the people bound by them are still working out what they mean. You will help us read the rules properly,

so we know what governments and companies are actually required to do and how Baeru helps them do it.

What you will do

• Track the Plastic Waste Management Rules (including EPR), the Solid Waste Management Rules and state-level notifications, and flag what changes.
• Turn dense regulation into one-page briefs the team can use the same day.
• Research the numbers behind our proposals to government: costs, penalties, savings, all from verified sources.
• Compare how other countries handle producer responsibility and waste reporting.

Who you are

• You read a gazette notification for what it actually says, not what the headline claims.
• You write short and clear. A one-page brief is harder than a ten-page one, and you know it.
• You check sources and say so when something can't be verified.
• You are curious about how policy plays out on the ground, not just on paper.
• Bonus: you read Kannada.

Law, public policy, environmental studies or anything else. Show us how you think.

How to apply

Send your resume and one writing sample. Then pick any one rule on plastic or solid waste and tell us, in under 150 words, who it actually affects

and what they have to do differently because of it.

About Baeru

Most of us throw something away and never think about it again. Someone else does: the people who collect it, sort it and decide where it goes next.

Almost none of that work, and almost none of where waste ends up, is ever recorded. Baeru changes that. We work on the ground with the people who handle waste,

and we build the technology that turns their work into verified data that governments, brands and recyclers can act on. Garbage is where we work. Proof is what we build.
