Posted On: 7 October 2026 Application Deadline: October 28, 2026, 6 PM IST (applications may be reviewed as they are submitted) Summary Precision Development (PxD) is seeking a strategic, impact-oriented Program Manager / Senior Program Manager to lead high-profile initiatives delivering weather forecasts to smallholder farmers at scale. In this role, you will initially oversee PxD’s work in India to institutionalize weather forecast dissemination to smallholders. Based in New Delhi, you will work closely with government stakeholders at national and state levels, operating at the intersection of policy, climate adaptation, and data-driven service delivery.
This is a mission-critical management position for someone with experience in strategy execution and public sector partnerships in complex environments. You will guide and coordinate efforts from a multidisciplinary team - including product/technology, agronomy, research, and communications - through the co-design design, implementation, and scaling of farmer-centric digital weather advisory services. You will serve as PxD’s representative with government counterparts and key partners, ensuring that our interventions are timely, relevant, evidence-based, and deliver meaningful impact for millions of farmers on their livelihood decisions and resilience.
This role builds on PxD’s demonstrated success in pioneering digital advisory services. In 2025, PxD worked with partners to disseminate AI-generated monsoon forecasts to 39+ million farmers across 13 states. The SPM will play a key role in driving this scale-up across geographies, refining the service through adaptive learning, and working with governments to design these programs for long-term impact and sustainability. About Precision Development (PxD): PxD is a rapidly scaling global nonprofit working with governments across Africa and Asia to close the last-mile gap in smallholder farming.
We deliver evidence-based information and tools — from timely farming and weather guidance to climate-resilient inputs — that millions of farmers use to improve their lives. In the last 12 months alone, we reached over 60 million farmers at a cost of just $0.47 per farmer per year, with our flagship program in India delivering a benefit-cost ratio of 12:1–19:1. Operating in Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Nigeria, and beyond, the majority of our team is based in our program countries, working directly alongside government partners and farming communities toward our goal of improving the lives of 100 million farmers by 2030.
