Head/Manager – Product Delivery | PQC, QKD & AI
What if your next role wasn't just to deliver a product — but to build the product, build the team, and eventually lead the business around it?
We are looking for a hands-on technology & delivery leader to help us build and take to market a next-generation security platform at the intersection of:
PQC + QKD + AI + 5G Core + Defense Communication
This is not a traditional Delivery Manager role.
We are looking for someone who can start by owning execution, work closely with our engineering teams, engage with Carrier and Defense customers — and, over time, potentially take broader ownership of the product and business.
What You Will Own
- Take products from engineering → productization → customer deployment → delivery.
- Work closely with AI, cryptography and quantum engineering teams today, and customer teams tomorrow.
- Translate customer requirements into engineering and product priorities.
- Build the processes, teams and partnerships required to scale the business.
Who We Are Looking For
- 12–20 years of experience across Telecom, Cybersecurity, Networking, Defense or Deep Tech.
- Proven experience taking complex technology from R&D / prototype to production and customer deployment.
- Deep-tech startup experience is a big plus — yes, we know that's rare!
- Comfortable working across PQC / Cryptography, QKD / Quantum, AI/ML and Telecom / Network Security. You don't need to be an expert in all of them — we have engineering teams for that!
- Most importantly: technology depth + customer orientation + entrepreneurial ownership.
Why This Could Be Interesting
You will be working on a platform designed for Carrier and Defense markets, at the intersection of some of the most important emerging security technologies.
You will have direct exposure to:
Technology - Product - Customer - Business
And if you are the person who can make that journey happen, the long-term opportunity is much bigger than the title you join with.
Chennai | On-site (Willing to travel anywhere tomorrow)
We are looking for someone already in Chennai or genuinely willing to relocate to Chennai.
We're building this hands-on, and we believe the person leading delivery should be close to the technology, the team and eventually the customers.
Compensation
A combination of:
Competitive take-home compensation + long-term stake / ownership component
The exact structure will depend on experience, leadership potential and the role you ultimately grow into.
One last thing...
We are not necessarily looking for someone who has already done everything.
We are looking for someone who has built difficult things, knows how to get things done, can earn customer trust, and wants to build something of their own.
Join us as the person who builds the product today.
Grow into the person who leads it tomorrow.
