Job description

Our customers aren't buying software — they're carrying responsibility for a base, a city, a border. As our founding PM, you turn their hardest problems into an intelligence layer they can rely on. You own the what and the why of India's Spatial AI Layer.

What you'll own

• Define the product vision for the spatial-AI platform, grounded in real institutional needs — defense, public safety, critical infrastructure, cities.
• Turn fragmented, high-stakes problems into a clear, sequenced roadmap.
• Live close to operators — the people responsible for protecting something larger than themselves.
• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with engineering to ship AI / CV products that hold up in the field, not just the demo.
• Define what “good” means: the metrics, quality bars, and trust our products must earn.

What we're looking for

• 4+ years in product, ideally on AI / computer vision, deep-tech, or hardware-software.
• Technical fluency — you can go deep on models, edge constraints, latency, and system trade-offs.
• 0→1 instincts: you can define a category, not just optimize a feature.
• A feel for mission-critical, enterprise, or government buyers.
