Full job description

Criteo is seeking an AI Automation Technical Lead based in Gurgaon, India, working hybrid hours (12:30 PM to 9:30 PM IST). The role involves owning the technical architecture and operational reliability of AI-powered automation platforms. Responsibilities include managing cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes), designing enterprise integrations and APIs, enforcing platform standards (RBAC, logging, auditability), coordinating with IT, Security, R&D, and application teams, enabling autonomous delivery by builders, and evaluating emerging AI technologies. Candidates should have 5+ years of software engineering experience with at least 2 years in a technical lead or platform engineering role, hands-on experience with cloud platforms and Kubernetes, strong integration skills, and the ability to drive technical decisions across stakeholders. Nice to have skills include full-stack development (Python, Node.js, TypeScript, SQL), knowledge of RAG and AI agent architectures, experience with workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier), and solid CI/CD practices. Benefits include a hybrid work model, career development programs, health and wellness support, a diverse and inclusive team, competitive salary with performance rewards, and potential equity.

What you'll do

  • Own the reliability and evolution of the automation platform stack
  • Hands-on skills in AWS/Kubernetes operations, observability, troubleshooting, and production support
  • Run and scale low-code automation platforms such as n8n
  • Design and implement enterprise-grade connectors and integrations across internal systems
  • Define and enforce platform standards covering RBAC, logging, auditability, and environment strategy
  • Coordinate technical alignment across IT, Security, R&D, and application teams
  • Enable builders to deliver autonomously through coaching, office hours, code reviews, and support
  • Evaluate new AI tools and platforms, run proof-of-concepts, and recommend adoption or deprecation decisions
  • Maintain a technical roadmap and act as the primary technical interface between the program and internal stakeholders

Requirements

  • 5+ years in software engineering, including 2+ in a technical lead, platform engineering, or cross-functional coordination role
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and container orchestration (Kubernetes)
  • Skilled at designing and implementing integrations and APIs between enterprise systems
  • Proven ability to drive technical decisions across multiple stakeholder groups in complex organizations
  • Curious about emerging AI technologies and motivated to experiment with new approaches, but pragmatic enough to balance ideal solutions with delivery timelines
  • Comfortable prototyping connectors, building reference flows, or debugging production issues
  • Leadership through influence and expertise, not authority
  • Nice to have: Full-stack versatility across frontend, backend, and database layers (Python, Node.js, TypeScript, SQL)
  • Nice to have: Working knowledge of RAG, AI agent architectures, prompt engineering
  • Nice to have: Experience with workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier) or enterprise AI agent platforms (Dust, Glean, Agentforce)
  • Nice to have: Solid CI/CD, version control, testing, and deployment practices
