Job Summary

Head of Product

Location: Bangalore

We are hiring a Head of Product to own the end-to-end product vision, strategy, and execution. This is a 0-1-to-1-10 role: you will define what we build next, work directly with founders and engineering, and be the connective tissue between deep battery-domain reality and world-class software product thinking. This is our most critical hire - we are looking for someone who has lived in a battery environment and can speak fluently in terms of kWh, voltage, current, and thermal behaviour, as well as revenue, cost, and unit economics.

What You'll Do

• Own the product roadmap end-to-end - from discovery to launch to iteration - across our data ingestion, AI monitoring, and automated-action layers.


• Translate deep battery-domain complexity (chemistry, BMS behaviour, degradation curves, thermal risk) into a coherent, scalable software product.


• Design and prioritise integrations across a highly fragmented ecosystem - legacy systems, ERPs, CRMs, OEM BMS platforms, and marketplaces.


• Build and scale systems that reliably process hundreds of millions of data points per month with strong reliability and low operating cost.


• Sit directly with customers - EV fleet operators, MSMEs, energy storage providers, banks, insurers, and recyclers - to translate ground-level pain into product decisions.


• Partner closely with engineering to make sharp build-vs-buy and open-source-vs-proprietary calls, with a strong bias toward frugal, pragmatic tooling.


• Define and own the metrics that matter - both technical (uptime, data accuracy, latency) and commercial (cost-to-serve, revenue impact, retention).

What We're Looking For (Non-Negotiables)

• Battery domain fluency: hands-on experience in a battery environment - genuinely conversant in kWh, km, voltage, current, and temperature, as well as revenue and cost. This is a hard filter.


• Engineer by training: Chemical, Mechanical, or Electrical engineering background strongly preferred.


• 01 builder: has built a product from scratch, not managed a mature product or owned a small feature within one.


• Proven scale: has operated products handling roughly 500M-1B transactions, data points, or messages per month.


• Integration depth: hands-on experience integrating 100+ external systems - legacy platforms, ERPs, CRMs, and marketplaces - with a strong open-source orientation and frugality with tooling.


• Customer-facing comfort: at ease talking to EV users, MSMEs, energy storage providers, banks, insurers, financial services firms, and recyclers directly.

• Employment Type: Full-time
