• Define the long-term AI roadmap: You won’t just follow trends; you’ll decide how Machine Learning and AI can uniquely solve travel pain points.

• Build & Scale: Lead a world-class team of Applied Scientists and ML Engineers.

• Consumer Impact: Deeply understand consumer behavior to build models that feel like magic to the user.

• Cross-Pollination: Partner with Product and Engineering to ensure AI isn't a silo, but a horizontal layer that enhances every click on the ixigo, ConfirmTkt, and AbhiBus apps.

Your DNA

• The Scientist-Builder: You have a PhD or Master's in CS/AI/Math, but you also have "calluses on your hands" from shipping real products. You know that a model is only as good as the problem it solves.

• LLM Native: You live and breathe Transformers. You understand the nuances of prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and the infrastructure required to serve large models at scale.

• The Scale Expert: You’ve handled datasets that would make a regular laptop melt. You are comfortable with distributed computing, MLOps, and optimizing models for mobile-first environments.

• Strategic & Witty: You can explain complex neural networks to a boardroom and the business value of a gradient descent to a developer—and you might even make a joke about it in the process.
