Job Description
**Global AI Robotics Lead** | Gurugram | Hybrid | INR 14.4-58.7 LPA
**About the role:**
- Position within Artificial Intelligence for Robotics, under the Automation & Robotics vertical
- Level: senior level
- Reports to the functional head for Artificial Intelligence for Robotics
**What you'll do:**
- Handle core artificial intelligence for robotics activities on a day-to-day basis
- Use Machine Vision regularly as part of core deliverables
- Work closely with adjacent teams to align priorities
- Track progress against agreed timelines and escalate issues proactively
**What you'll need:**
- Machine Vision
- Control Systems Design
- PLC Programming
- Troubleshooting & Maintenance
- Artificial Intelligence for Robotics
- SCADA Systems
- Sensor Integration
- Industrial IoT
- Diploma (Instrumentation)
- 9+ years of relevant experience
**Good to know:**
- Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions.
- The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving.
- Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
- Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round.
- Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage.
- No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week.
- The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings. Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay.
- The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding. Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held.
- Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone. Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval. The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here.
