Job description

Who is Litmus

Litmus is building the data foundation that powers industrial AI. AI doesn’t work without real-world, contextualized data – Litmus makes that data usable. As AI adoption accelerates, most industrial environments still can’t access or use their operational data. We solve that gap.

We’re a growth-stage software company helping manufacturers access, structure, and use real-time data from machines, systems, and sensors at the edge. Our platform sits at the intersection of edge computing, AI, and industrial operations, enabling some of the world’s largest companies to run operations in real time, reduce downtime, and optimize production.

Backed by leading investors and trusted by global manufacturers and partners like Google, Microsoft, Dell, Oracle, and Mitsubishi, Litmus is powering the shift toward software-defined manufacturing.

Why join Litmus

Build the infrastructure that makes industrial AI possible. AI is moving beyond the cloud and into the physical world. At Litmus, you’ll build the infrastructure that enables real-time data to power AI and machine learning systems in production environments.

Work on problems where software meets the real world

Most AI systems fail without access to real-world data. You’ll build the layer that makes them viable in production. We solve challenges at the intersection of distributed systems, real-time data, and industrial constraints — where reliability, scale, and performance are non‑negotiable.

Have real impact, fast

You’ll work on systems used by real customers in production, with direct impact on product and company trajectory. As a scaling company, we move quickly. You’ll have ownership, visibility, and the ability to shape both product and company as we scale.

Join a high-performance team

We’re building a team that holds a high bar and pushes each other to improve. You’ll work alongside experienced operators, engineers, and leaders who have done this before and are building again at scale. We hire people who take ownership, move quickly, and care about outcomes. No passengers.

Our culture

At Litmus, the team is collaborative, curious, and low ego. People are scrappy, take ownership, and look for ways to make an impact. We value empathy just as much as execution, whether that’s in how we build, how we communicate, or how we support each other.

We’re a growing company, so things move quickly and not everything is perfectly defined. If you enjoy figuring things out, working closely with others, and making steady progress, you’ll do well here.

About The Role

Litmus is continuing to grow its Pune-based GCC across engineering, product, customer success, and business operations. We’re looking for a Recruiter dedicated to supporting hiring in India and bringing strong knowledge of the local talent market to our global recruiting team. You’ll manage full-cycle recruiting for roles across India, with direction and support from Litmus’s global Recruiter. Based in our Pune office, you’ll work closely with the Country Managing Director, People Operations, and hiring managers located across India and other regions. You’ll help ensure our global recruiting approach works effectively in India by sharing local market insights, adapting sourcing strategies, and creating a strong candidate experience.

What you’ll do

• Manage full-cycle recruiting for technical and business roles across India, from intake and sourcing through interviews, offers, and acceptance, while delivering a positive and consistent candidate experience.
• Build strong pipelines for specialized and difficult-to-fill positions, particularly across engineering, industrial software, product, and customer-facing teams.
• Partner with hiring managers and the global Recruiter to understand role requirements, develop effective sourcing strategies, and adapt Litmus’s global recruiting processes for the India market.
• Apply strong knowledge of the India talent market to sourcing, candidate management, and offer discussions.
• Partner with People Operations on offers, background verification, and India-specific hiring and compliance requirements.
• Build strong working relationships with the Country Managing Director and local teams through a regular presence in the Pune office.
• Maintain accurate candidate and hiring data in Ashby and provide regular updates on pipelines, challenges, and hiring progress.
• Coordinate with external agencies, job boards, and other recruiting partners when needed.

What you’ll bring

• 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience in India across technical and business roles.
• Demonstrated experience sourcing and hiring difficult-to-find technical talent.
• Strong knowledge of the India talent market, including common sourcing practices, notice periods, compensation structures, counteroffers, and candidate expectations.
• Working knowledge of India-specific hiring compliance requirements and the judgment to partner with People Operations when guidance is needed.
• Experience collaborating with hiring managers and recruiting colleagues across countries, cultures, and time zones.
• Ability to manage multiple searches, balance competing priorities, and communicate progress clearly.
• Experience using an ATS and modern sourcing tools; experience with Ashby is highly preferred.
• Comfortable working regularly from Litmus’s Pune office while collaborating with remote global teams.

Nice to have

• Experience recruiting for an industrial software, IIoT, manufacturing technology, or other deep-tech company.
• Experience recruiting for or supporting a GCC for a company headquartered outside India.
