About the role
Agile Robots is scaling fast, and India is becoming a very important hub — spanning corporate HQ functions in Bangalore, manufacturing operations in Chennai, and a newly acquired engineering business set to double or triple its headcount over the next 1–2 years.
HR in India today is organized as three separate, site-based teams. As we move into a phase of rapid growth, we're creating a new role to bring them together under one strategy, invest in stronger systems and structure, and connect India more closely into how the company operates globally. We're hiring a Head of People, India to lead that next chapter.
This is a builder role, with real scope to shape the org, the systems, and the culture as the company scales.

The perfect candidate brings genuine, lived fluency in both Indian and Western work culture — for example, an Indian professional with substantial work experience in Germany or the US who is returning, or an internationally experienced HR leader with deep, hands-on India experience.
Your Responsibilities
1. Culture & organizational evolution




Evolve the day-to-day operating culture toward the quick, transparent, low-bureaucracy style of a global tech company, building on the foundations the current teams have already established.
Build one coherent people philosophy across all three sites that respects the real differences between the factory floor, the corporate HQ, and an engineering-heavy acquisition, without fragmenting into three separate cultures.
Develop and grow the HR teams at each site, adding capability where the organization's growth requires it.
2. Talent acquisition & hypergrowth readiness
Build a scalable TA engine capable of hiring at pace across white-collar and blue-collar profiles at the same time.
Stand up employer branding, sourcing, and hiring-manager enablement strong enough to compete with India's top tech employers for engineering talent.
Design workforce planning and headcount governance that can support 2–3x gro
