Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the India engineering organization by balancing technical contributions with leadership, focusing on architecture reviews and mentorship. Scale the high-performance team through strategic hiring and the development of future technical leaders.
Requires extensive experience building complex software systems and managing engineers with a strong desire to remain technically hands-on. Ideal candidates possess strong product instincts and experience scaling engineering organizations in startup environments.
We exist to help people unlock clarity from complexity.
WisdomAI builds AI-powered analytics that put answers directly in the hands of the people closest to the business. Our platform doesn’t just surface insights — it explains the why behind them, helping teams move from data to decisions with speed, confidence, and context.
We’re trusted by companies like Cisco, Patreon, and Rubrik — and we’re just getting started.The problems here are hard, and the expectations are high. Our team is energized by both. If you’re compelled by ambitious problems, high standards, and meaningful ownership, you’ll thrive here.
We're looking for our first Technical Lead & Manager in India. This role will help shape the next chapter of that organization while remaining deeply involved in the technical work itself.
We don't see management and engineering as separate tracks.Our Technical lead will participate in architecture reviews, code reviews, technical discussions, hiring decisions, and occasionally jump into code themselves. The ideal balance is roughly 40% leadership and 60% technical contribution.
Both the geographies - India and US - own meaningful parts of the product and platform. Engineers are trusted with end-to-end ownership and leaders are expected to create the environment where that ownership thrives.
We're intentional about every hire.The team includes engineers from companies such as Google, Meta, Rubrik, Glean, and other world-class organizations. Maintaining and raising that bar is one of the most important responsibilities of this role.
The best engineering decisions start with understanding the customer problem.We look for leaders who can connect technical choices to customer outcomes and help teams prioritize accordingly.
We value people who can build from first principles.Processes, operating rhythms, performance management, career development, organizational design—none of these are finished products. You'll help create and evolve them as the organization grows.
The India team has grown rapidly and now spans backend systems, platform infrastructure, frontend experiences, and machine learning.
You'll help build the systems that allow that team to scale without losing speed, quality, or culture.
Many of our engineers are capable of becoming future staff engineers, tech leads, and engineering managers.
A significant part of this role is helping them get there through mentorship, coaching, feedback, and career development.
We're actively growing.
You'll partner closely with leadership to identify exceptional talent, evaluate candidates, and ensure every hire improves the organization.
As the organization grows, maintaining a high technical bar becomes harder.
You'll help guide architecture discussions, participate in design reviews, review code, and ensure engineering quality scales alongside headcount.
From agent orchestration and reasoning systems to distributed data infrastructure and AI-powered user experiences, you'll work alongside the team solving technically ambitious problems at the intersection of AI, data, and enterprise software.
Have spent years building and shipping complex software systems
Have managed engineers and genuinely enjoy helping people grow
Still love engineering and want to remain technically involved
Hold a high bar for technical quality and execution
Operate with high ownership and low ego
Can balance speed with sound engineering judgment
Have strong product instincts and care about customer outcomes
Want to help build an organization, not simply inherit one
Experience at companies that have built at scale and have strong engineering cultures
Startup or founding engineer experience
Experience scaling engineering organizations from
Experience with distributed systems, infrastructure, AI, data platforms, or developer tools
Experience hiring and developing senior engineering talent
Looking for a pure people-management role with little technical involvement? This probably isn't it.
Looking for a remote role? We work together in-office five days a week.
Looking primarily for title progression? We're more interested in builders than titles.
You'll join a company founded by repeat entrepreneurs and early builders from companies including Rubrik and Glean.
We're tackling one of the largest software categories in the world: business intelligence and analytics.
We're backed by leading investors including Kleiner Perkins and NVIDIA Ventures.
Most importantly, you'll inherit a strong team and have the opportunity to shape what engineering leadership looks like in India from the ground up.

CRAFT isn’t a list of aspirational values. It’s how we hire, how we promote, how we resolve hard calls, and how we stay honest with ourselves.
C — Customer trust. Everything starts here. We listen carefully, act with integrity, and respond with urgency. Delight is downstream of trust — never the other way around.
R — Relentless on outcomes. We move with urgency, take initiative, and see things through. Effort isn’t the measure — results are. If something isn’t working, we change the approach now.
A — Authenticity. We say the hard things, directly and with respect. We also show up as full humans. That combination is how trust is earned and how we grow together.
F — First principles, grounded in reality. We don’t accept “that’s how it’s done.” We strip problems to what’s actually true and build up from there — then validate quickly and let real-world results decide.
T — Transparency. We share the why, not just the what. When something can’t be shared, we say so. We’re one team — information flows so we can do our best work and challenge each other when we’re wrong.
