About the Role

We are looking for a Head of AI — a visionary, hands‑on leader who thrives at the intersection of deep tech and business impact. This is not a maintenance role; it’s a build‑from‑scratch, scale‑with‑speed mandate.

You’ll lead Spyne’s AI initiatives end‑to‑end — from defining the roadmap and driving R&D, to shipping world‑class AI products that power the next generation of automotive commerce.

📍 Location: Gurugram (Work from Office – 5 days a week)

What You’ll Own

• AI Strategy & Vision: Define and execute Spyne’s long‑term AI roadmap aligned with product, business, and global expansion goals.
• Hands‑On Innovation: Lead the design, training, and optimization of deep learning and generative AI models — including LLMs, diffusion models, GANs, and transformers.
• Scale & Deployment: Build scalable AI infrastructure, model pipelines, and production‑grade deployments leveraging AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Team Leadership: Mentor, coach, and grow a world‑class AI team — fostering a culture of ownership, curiosity, and velocity.
• Cross‑Functional Impact: Partner closely with product, engineering, and design teams to integrate AI seamlessly into customer‑facing experiences.
• Thought Leadership: Stay ahead of emerging AI trends and represent Spyne at global conferences, forums, and research collaborations.
• Execution Excellence: Balance innovation with delivery — ensuring AI models move from prototype to production with measurable business outcomes.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 6–8 years of experience in AI/ML, with proven expertise in Generative AI, LLMs, Computer Vision, and Deep Learning.
• A strong academic or research pedigree (top‑tier institute or AI‑driven company background preferred).
• Deep experience building and scaling AI products in a high‑growth, fast‑paced startup or enterprise environment.
• Hands‑on expertise in frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, Hugging Face, and modern MLOps practices.
• A builder’s mindset — capable of moving fast, experimenting, and delivering results with minimal oversight.
• Excellent leadership and mentoring skills; able to inspire, guide, and develop high‑performing technical teams.
• Exceptional communication and collaboration abilities; comfortable engaging with leadership, product, and customers.
• Alignment with Spyne’s core values: Customer Obsession, Think 10X, Extreme Ownership, and Relentless Innovation Machine.

Why Spyne

• 🚀 AI‑First Company: Work on groundbreaking GenAI products at the intersection of visual storytelling and commerce.
• 💡 High‑Impact Role: Directly shape the future of AI in automotive retail with global visibility.
• 🧠 Leadership Autonomy: Build, mentor, and scale a team from the ground up.
• 💰 Competitive Compensation: Includes equity and performance‑linked rewards.
• ❤️ People‑First Culture: Collaborative, fast‑paced, and built on trust and ownership.
