Job description

About LoglineAI

LoglineAI is an AI-powered creative studio helping content studios, brands, and agencies go from pitch to fully packaged content — faster, smarter, and leaner. Part of the SVF ecosystem alongside hoichoi (India's leading Regional OTT platform) and Sooper (AI-led micro-drama OTT)

The Opportunity

LoglineAI is growing, and every new hire shapes how the studio works. In this role, you will own hiring from start to finish across creative, tech and client-facing teams — this is about 80% of the job. The other 20% is core people operations: onboarding, documentation, employee queries and exits.

You will work closely with founders and hiring managers, and you will be the person who makes sure we hire the right people, quickly and fairly.

What you'll do

• Own end-to-end hiring for creative, tech and client-facing roles, closing each role within an agreed time-to-hire target.


• Build a strong pipeline for every open role through LinkedIn, job portals, referrals, creative communities and direct outreach, so each role has a qualified shortlist within the first week.


• Run a clear intake with every hiring manager before sourcing starts — agree on must-haves, outcomes and the interview plan, so fewer roles need to be re-opened.


• Run structured interviews — screens, scorecards, panel scheduling and debriefs — so every hiring decision is backed by clear evidence.


• Track and share hiring metrics every week (time-to-hire, offer acceptance rate, source quality, pipeline health) and use them to fix slow stages.


• Manage offers and pre-joining, keeping candidates engaged until Day 1 to keep offer drop-offs low.


• Make sure every new joiner has access, tools, a buddy and a 90-day plan in their first week.


• Handle core people operations — employee records, letters, policy queries and exits — accurately and on time.


• Be the go-to partner for managers and team members on everyday people matters, raising issues early before they grow.


• Use AI tools to speed up sourcing, screening and documentation, cutting time spent on repeat task.

Must-Have Qualifications

• A track record of owning hiring for several roles at once, with numbers to show it — roles closed, time-to-hire, offer acceptance.


• Strong sourcing skills: you can find and engage passive candidates, not just post jobs and wait.


• Experience running structured interviews and working closely with hiring managers.


• Working knowledge of core HR operations — onboarding, employee documentation, lifecycle letters and exits.


• Clear, warm communication with candidates, managers and leadership.


• Uses AI tools to summarise data, draft documents, and explore process improvements — and knows how to verify and correct AI outputs.

Good to Have

• Experience hiring for creative roles (writers, designers, editors, producers) or AI/tech roles.


• Hands-on use of an ATS or async screening tools


• Basic understanding of Indian labour law and HR compliance.


• Experience building employer brand content for a young company.

Culture & How We Work

At LoglineAI, the best idea wins, not the biggest title. We operate in small, cross-functional teams where content, product, growth, and tech sit close together, argue productively, and occasionally steal each other's snacks. It's a lot like a kitchen during a house party: slightly chaotic, everyone's doing three things at once, but somehow the food comes out great.

Ownership here isn't a buzzword; it's the default setting. If something's broken, you don't file a ticket and wait. You're the person who notices the printer is jammed and just fixes it instead of pretending you didn't see it. We ship fast, measure what works, and iterate. Think less 'perfect deck' and more 'let's see if real viewers actually care.'

When big moments arrive, we stretch. But we're equally serious about keeping the pace sustainable, because burnt-out teams build neither great products nor great stories. If that sounds like your kind of chaos, we should talk.
