Vice President - Corporate Technologies

Job Description:

We are seeking a Corporate Technology India Lead, Engineering (Vice President) to join Corporate Technology in Mumbai, reporting to the global Head of Corporate Technology. This is a high-impact role serving as the senior Corporate Technology leader in India and a member of the Corporate Technology leadership team alongside the global Product and Engineering heads. The leader will provide local direction and connective leadership for up to 15 Mumbai-based employees supporting Human Resources, Legal and Compliance, Corporate Finance, and Corporate Services Technology - including colleagues aligned through dotted-line reporting - and support oversight of a comparable contractor workforce of approximately 15. While retaining direct accountability for engineering delivery and operational excellence, this individual will help create a cohesive local technology community of approximately 30 internal and external professionals.

This is a build-and-scale opportunity for a leader who wants to shape how the India Corporate Technology organization engineers, operates, and adopts AI. The role has meaningful influence over engineering culture, talent strategy, delivery practices, process maturity, knowledge management, and the evolution of business-critical platforms.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on full-stack engineering leader and credible technologist who combines deep technical judgment with strong people and organizational leadership. This person will operate as a player-coach: contributing directly to architecture, design, code reviews, prototypes, critical development, and production problem solving, while building a high-performing team. They will bring an AI-centric mindset and a practical record of using AI and automation to improve software delivery, business workflows, decision support, and team productivity within appropriate governance and control frameworks.

Success requires exceptional written and verbal communication, strong executive presence, and the ability to create clarity across cultures, time zones, and matrixed reporting lines. The leader must be a trusted bridge-builder across Product, Engineering, Enterprise Architecture, Data, Information Security, Infrastructure, Service Management, and business-facing technology teams. They must be equally effective with engineers, product managers, senior business stakeholders, and enterprise technology partners, translating complex topics into crisp decisions, shared priorities, and measurable outcomes.

Success in this role will be reflected in the strength, cohesion, and engagement of the India technology community; clear direction across direct and dotted-line teams; predictable, high-quality delivery; improved platform reliability and engineering productivity; responsible adoption of AI; and durable processes and knowledge assets that reduce key-person dependency and allow the organization to scale.
