Founding Ops (Founder's Office) at Adzzat. Mumbai, in person, full time. Reports to the COO.
Adzzat is the delivery layer behind AI data companies. They bring the project. We bring vetted engineers, finance experts and annotators from across India, and run everything else: vetting, onboarding, quality, project management and payouts.
Our founders spend most of their time with clients in San Francisco. We're hiring someone to grow into running Mumbai.
What you'll own (not all on day one, all of it within a year)
Delivery: every client project, from kickoff to final batch
Scoping: turning rough client asks into people, cost and timelines
The contributor network: recruiting, vetting, onboarding and keeping the best people
Quality: guidelines, reviews and feedback loops that catch problems before the client does
Money flow: contributors paid on time, invoices that match the work
Systems: trackers and SOPs that run without the founders
Whatever's broken. If it has no owner, it's yours
Who you are
Early in your career, but you've already run something real: a team, a fest,
a founder's office stint, your own venture
You learn quick, and current things don't scare you
You never give up, and you don't burn relationships doing it
Jugaad, not shortcuts: you find a way, but never cut corners on pay, client data or quality
Hungry. Nobody needs to push you
A transparent writer. Most of this job happens on Slack and WhatsApp
Not for you if
You want a tidy scope or a strict 9 to 6. Many of our clients are in the US
You need someone checking your work
What you get
A founding seat. You join before the playbook exists, and you write it
A real path up. Do this well and you become our Head of Operations
A front-row seat in how AI models get trained and tested
Good to have: time at an early-stage startup or in a founder's office, strong spreadsheet skills, delivery experience in AI data, annotation or BPO.
Not required: an engineering degree, an MBA or prior AI experience.
