We’re at the forefront of a once in a generational change in the broadband industry. Join us as we innovate, help our customers reach their potential, and connect underserved communities with unrivaled digital experiences. About the Role: We are standing up an enterprise AI capability across our product organization, and we are looking for a seasoned technical lead to drive it end to end. This is a hands-on role: you will set the technical direction, architecture, and standards, mentor engineers, and steer external delivery partners - while still writing code, building reference implementations, and personally unblocking the hardest problems. What You'll Do: Enterprise Platform Rollout & Enablement Own the architecture and rollout of the enterprise AI platform across the product organization. Build and operate cost-effective infrastructure: model garden setup, budget controls and cost monitoring, model tiering, and fallback open-source models. Stand up and harden platform foundations - identity federation/SSO, IAM, tenant isolation, security and compliance guardrails, and observability. Enable users to adopt off-the-shelf capabilities (e.g., NotebookLM, enterprise search, code assistants) and provide the training and ongoing support that drives real adoption. Design and deliver a self-service “agent factory” - patterns, templates, and in-IDE guardrails - so teams can build and maintain their own agents safely. Product Development Lifecycle Agents Lead the design and build of agent workflows across the PDLC: Ideation: requirement ideation and generation, design specification generation. Development: coding assistants, source-code management. Deployment: CI/CD, deployment, and monitoring. Partner directly with product, engineering, and other business teams to understand their requirements and help build out their use-cases - not just ship infrastructure but drive measurable productivity gains. Establish evaluation, quality, and monitoring practices for agent workflows from sandbox to production. Cross-Platform Interoperability Build agents that interoperate with agents on other enterprise AI platforms, including cross-platform contracts, schema/intent mapping, and cross-perimeter authentication. Represent the product organization technically when working with other business teams on cross-platform agent designs. Across All Tracks - Leadership & Hands-on Own the technical strategy, standards, patterns, and guardrails for agentic workflow development, RAG, security, and governance. Lead and mentor a team across cloud and enterprise AI tracks; raise the bar through code review, pairing, and design reviews. Steer external delivery partners - scope work, review deliverables, and hold them to quality and timeline. Stay hands-on: build reference agents, RAG pipelines, integrations, and MCP connectors, and debug the hardest pieces (including non-deterministic retrieval/generation behavior). Required Qualifications: 10+ years of software engineering experience, with 4+ years in a technical lead or staff-level role. Strong, current hands-on coding ability - you still build and ship. Proficiency in Python (and comfort across at least one other modern language). Experience designing and operating production AI/ML or LLM-based systems: agents, RAG, prompt/eval pipelines, or similar. Deep familiarity with Google Vertex AI / Gemini and the surrounding services (IAM, networking, observability, cost management). Experience building developer-facing platforms or internal tooling, and driving adoption with training and support. Experience integrating systems via APIs and connectors; comfort with authentication and identity federation (OAuth, SSO, workload identity). A track record of leading technical initiatives across teams and influencing without authority. Strong communication skills - able to work directly with both engineers and non-technical business stakeholders. Preferred Qualifications: Hands-on with Gemini Enterprise, Vertex AI, NotebookLM, or comparable enterprise AI tooling. Experience building agentic systems and orchestration (agent development kits, A2A protocols, MCP, tool/function calling). Experience with LLM gateways and routing (e.g., LiteLLM), model cost optimization, and multi-model fallback strategies. Experience managing or working alongside systems integrators / delivery partners. Familiarity with the modern PDLC toolchain (Jira/Confluence, Figma, GitHub, CI/CD) and AI coding assistants. Experience with AI governance, guardrails, data privacy, and compliance in an enterprise setting. Location: India – (Flexible hybrid work model - work from Bangalore office for 20 days in a quarter).
