About Us
Vahan is building India's first AI-powered recruitment marketplace for the country's 300 million-strong blue-collar workforce — already the largest platform of its kind, backed by Khosla Ventures, Y Combinator, LemmaTree.
Our mission: impact a billion lives globally by giving blue-collar professionals not just jobs, but a real path to economic prosperity. If that vision excites you, here's where you'd make your mark.
Scope:
You own outcomes across the system, not one component: the voice and WhatsApp agents, the eval suite, the conversion funnel they feed, and root-cause analysis across code, agent behaviour, models and data.
What Samvaadini Is
Samvaadini is Vahan's hybrid voice and WhatsApp agent. It places 100,000+ outbound calls a day to people looking for delivery and warehouse work across 900+ Indian cities, qualifies them, answers what they actually want to know about pay and shift timings, and hands the reliable ones to a recruiter. It talks in Hindi,
Hinglish and a widening set of regional languages — mostly to people on a low-end Android phone in a noisy street, many of whom have never used a chatbot before.
Vahan is a marketplace for blue-collar work. Zomato, Zepto, Swiggy and others hire through us; hundreds of recruitment agencies source through us. When Samvaadini gets better, more people get placed in a job this week instead of next month. That is the point of the team.
What You Will Actually Do
- Own the outcome, not the ticket.
At this level you will more often be handed a number that moved than a task to complete. Qualified handoffs are down 12% — go. Localise it across code, agent behaviour, a silent model or provider change, upstream data, or a genuine market shift, and then argue for the fix with the most leverage. Sometimes that argument is for doing nothing, and that is a real answer here.
- Know the funnel cold
— outreach, connect, qualify, handoff, interview, placement. Write your own queries. An engineer who has to ask someone
