Head of Business Operations Enterprise AI Deployment

Location: Chandigarh

Company: Lambda Function

Reporting to: Chief Executive Oicer / Business Leadership

About Lambda Function

Lambda Function is building the AI-native manufacturing platform for precision manufacturers.

Our mission is to enable autonomous precision manufacturing by applying AI across CNC programming, machining, quotation, quality, and sustainability.

We work with sophisticated aerospace, semiconductor, automotive, and other precision manufacturing organizations. Our enterprise engagements involve deploying AI into real-world manufacturing environments requiring close coordination across customer engineering teams,

data, AI models, software, and manufacturing processes.

The Role

We are looking for a Head of Business Operations to build and lead Lambda Functions enterprise deployment engine.

When a customer purchases our Foundation Program, we take responsibility for establishing the data, manufacturing knowledge, AI models, workows, and operational environment required to successfully deploy our technology.

Today, much of this execution is handled by Product and Engineering. As we scale, we need a dedicated function that owns customer deployment from commercial hando through successful go-live and transition into ongoing lifecycle management.

You will be the operational owner of customer deployment.

Your mandate is simple

Make every enterprise deployment predictable, repeatable, high-quality, and successful without requiring Product & Engineering to become the deployment organization.

This is a builder role. You will establish the processes, tools, operating rhythms, and eventually the team required to scale enterprise deployments from a handful of customers to dozens and ultimately hundreds.

What You Will Do

Own Enterprise Deployment

Take ownership of customer engagements immediately following commercial close.

Translate the SOW into a detailed implementation plan with milestones, owners,

dependencies, and acceptance criteria.

Coordinate customer Manufacturing Engineering, IT, Operations,



and leadership stakeholders.

Aerospace, semiconductor, automotive, or precision manufacturing

CNC / CAM / CAD / PLM / MES

Industrial AI / ML deployments

¢

Enterprise SaaS implementation

Digital transformation / Industry 4.0

Manufacturing engineering experience is a signicant advantage.

What We Value

Builder mentality. You enjoy turning recurring heroics into repeatable processes.

Extreme ownership. When something is at risk, you ask What needs to happen to x it? rather than Whose responsibility is this?

Customer obsession. You care deeply about whether the customer actually achieves value not simply whether the project was technically completed.

Technical curiosity. You dont need to be the deepest AI or manufacturing expert, but you must be able to understand complex technical environments and work credibly with engineers and manufacturing professionals.

What Success Looks Like

Within 612 months, Lambda Function has a repeatable enterprise deployment engine where:

¢

¢

¢

¢

¢

¢

¢

Foundation Programs consistently launch and complete on schedule.

Customers have clear expectations and accountability.

Deployment risks are identied early.

Product & Engineering involvement is structured and predictable.

Customers reach productive use quickly.

Foundation Programs transition cleanly into Model Lifecycle Management.

Deployment volume can increase signicantly without proportional growth in engineering overhead.

This is not a project management role.

It is an prospect to build the operating system through which Lambda Function delivers AI into the worlds most sophisticated manufacturing environments.
