^QSIY — View all Purchase Manager sailors from India

Part of the ^QS Sailors registry — the Zulu Code maritime human-capital index.

What ^QSIY18040218 means

^QSIY18040218 is a Zulu Code person identifier, read one letter at a time. The leading ^Q places it in the Human Capital & Services system, and QS is the Sailors registry inside it: every seafarer and shore professional on Zulu Code sits under ^QS.

The third letter, I, is the country: India. The fourth letter, Y, is the rank: Purchase Manager. So ^QSIY is the node for every Purchase Manager from India, and this page is one member of it.

The trailing digits 18040218 are a placeholder. Zulu Code normally encodes the holder's date of birth as YYYYMMDD so that members of a node sort by age, but this account was issued before a date of birth was recorded. When the holder adds one, the code is re-issued with the real digits.

About the Purchase Manager rank

A Purchase Manager runs marine procurement ashore: sourcing spare parts, stores and services against requisitions from the fleet, negotiating with makers and suppliers, and managing delivery to the vessel.

Shore ranks occupy the letters U to Z of the ^QS registry, alongside the sea-going ranks A to T, because the same people move between ship and office across a career and Zulu Code follows them with one identifier.

75 people hold a Purchase Manager code from India on Zulu Code. The parent node ^QSIY lists all of them.

How verification works

A Zulu Code is a verifiable credential, not a public profile. Without the holder's 4-digit PIN this page shows only what the code itself encodes: registry, country, rank and the encoded date. With the PIN, the same page unlocks the holder's name, contact details, ZULU-verified rating and the ZULUCODE standard resume.

That is why ^QSIY18040218 is safe to print on a CV or a business card: a recruiter who has been given the PIN sees a verified record, and anyone else sees a code. The PIN can be changed by the holder at any time, which revokes every earlier link.
