Vice President - Head of Engineering

Company Description Provlo is a growing technology organization focused on building innovative software solutions for modern businesses. The company values engineering excellence, pragmatic problem-solving, and measurable impact for its customers. Provlo promotes a collaborative culture where cross-functional teams work closely to deliver high-quality products on predictable timelines. Joining Provlo offers the opportunity to shape technology direction, influence product strategy, and build scalable systems in a dynamic environment.
Role Description The VP of Engineering owns delivery. The work is to take a working multi-agent product and make it deployable, integrated and auditable inside government: hosted on NIC infrastructure, connected to e-Office, and hardened to the standards government security auditors expect. You will lead the engineering team, set its standards and be accountable for what ships.
Responsibilities
• Delivery. Plan and run sprints, keep the continuous deployment pipeline healthy, and ship on a schedule that ministry pilots can rely on.
• Domain logic. Translate scheme guidelines and rigid procedural and statutory requirements (CSMOP, Lok Sabha manuals, RTI Act) into working multi-agent workflows that power every answer and draft.
• Team. Build, mentor and scale the core developer pod. Set engineering standards, enforce disciplined version control and code review, and keep delivery fast without letting quality slip.
• Government integration. Own product-level integration with e-Office, NIC hosting and configuration, and the ingestion of ministerial records.
• Security. Enforce the security architecture day to day: SHA-256 transaction logging, Ed25519 agent signatures, and the controls required for STQC audit and on-premise deployment.
Qualifications
• 8 to 10 or more years in software engineering, delivery management or systems architecture at established IT enterprises, including time spent leading teams.
• Hands-on experience running product sprint cycles, building enterprise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications, and deploying secure cloud or on-premise systems.
• A track record of delivering software, integrations or data pipelines for Indian Union Ministries, NIC or MeitY systems.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology or a related engineering discipline.
Preferred
• Familiarity with Indian enterprise ecosystems, NASSCOM-affiliated initiatives or national public digital platforms.
• Working knowledge of STQC security audit guidelines, national data storage and localisation mandates, and secure enterprise deployment practices.
