Full Time Ahmedabad

We’re building something real in AI — and we need someone to lead it from the inside. As AI Solutions Lead, you’ll own the AI and automation practice at Rivulet IQ: leading a team of AI/automation professionals, working on your own projects hands-on, and serving as the bridge between what clients need and what the team delivers. You’ll coordinate closely with Account Managers who own the client relationship — your job is to make sure the work is sharp, on time, and actually solves the problem.

This role is for someone who takes initiative without being asked, holds a high bar for quality, and knows how to keep a team moving in the right direction.

This role is for someone who enjoys:

- Staying hands-on technically while also leading a team
- Owning quality end-to-end, from requirement to final handoff
- Solving genuinely hard, current problems in AI and automation
- Setting the standard for how AI solutions get built and documented

If you’re someone who wants both deep technical ownership and real leadership responsibility, this role gives you both.

What you’ll really be doing

1. Project Delivery & Execution

- Lead end-to-end delivery of AI and automation projects — from requirement understanding to final handoff
- Work hands-on on your own projects alongside managing the team’s output
- Review deliverables before they go to clients — quality is your responsibility
- Identify risks early and resolve blockers without waiting for escalation
- Ensure all projects are delivered on time, within scope, and to a high standard

2. Client Coordination

- Participate in client calls when AI requirements need to be discussed or clarified
- Understand client briefs and translate them into actionable tasks for the team
- Provide regular,



structured project updates to Account Managers so they always have what they need for client communication
- Flag scope changes, delays, or risks proactively — no surprises to clients

3. Team Leadership

- Lead and mentor the AI/automation team on a day-to-day basis
- Assign work, track progress, and ensure the team stays unblocked
- Review team members’ work and give direct, constructive feedback
- Build team capability through guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing
- Set standards for how AI solutions are built and documented at Rivulet IQ

4. Hands-On Technical Work

- Design and build automation workflows using n8n, Make, Zapier, or similar platforms
- Prompt engineering and LLM system design (system prompts, context management, output structuring)
- MCP (Model Context Protocol) server development
- Integrate AI APIs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Vertex AI, or Hugging Face into client solutions
- Agentic workflow design — multi-agent coordination, tool use, memory management
- Build AI-powered assistants, RAG pipelines, chatbots, and agent-based workflows
- Write clean, maintainable TypeScript, Python, or JavaScript for integrations and custom tooling
- Evaluate new tools and bring relevant ones into the team’s stack

Who will thrive in this role

- You want to stay technically hands-on even as you take on leadership responsibility
- You take initiative without waiting to be asked




- You hold a high bar for quality and catch issues before they reach clients
- You communicate clearly with both technical teams and client-facing stakeholders
- You’re genuinely current on where AI/automation tooling is heading

Must Have Skills
