Director / Associate Director, Product & Strategy

About SquadStack.ai

SquadStack.ai is India's leading Voice AI platform for consumer sales. Our AI agents run 50 lakh+ calls a day for 60+ leading brands including Kotak Mahindra Bank, AngelOne, PhonePe, IndiaMART, TATA Digital, Amazon, Swiggy and Eureka Forbes, giving every lead the best pitch, in their language, on their preferred channel, at the right time. Our customers see up to 90% lead connectivity, 40% more conversions and 2-3x lower CAC.

We own the stack we run on. Arth, our speech-to-text model, is trained on 600M+ minutes of real Indian sales conversations and, on our own benchmark of noisy Hinglish telephony audio, comes out ahead of every other model. Maya, the world's first Sales LLM, is trained on 400M+ real sales interactions and their outcomes, so it learns what actually closes, not just what sounds fluent. We process over a trillion tokens a month at under 0.8 second median latency, and every conversation makes the next one better.

Driven by 200+ builders and backed by Blume Ventures, Chiratae Ventures and Bertelsmann India Investments, we believe how we build matters as much as what we build. Ownership is real, trust is the default, and there is room for deep work. Careers here are not one-size-fits-all. Growth can be linear or non-linear, leadership can be quiet or bold, and people build, lead and challenge without being pushed into a single mould.

If you're excited by AI, driven by purpose, and want your work to truly matter, there is space for you here.
