Product Manager, Model APIs
BengaluruFull-timePosted 1mo ago
About the role
Product Manager responsible for Sarvam's model APIs, bridging research and market to define API surfaces, roadmap, and deployment success for speech, language, and multimodal models.
Responsibilities
- Own the product surface for Sarvam's model APIs across speech, language, and multimodal, from spec and versioning to documentation, developer experience, and deprecation.
- Shape model roadmaps alongside research leads, bringing evidence from usage, evals, and customer signal into decisions about what gets trained, fine-tuned, and released.
- Define what quality means for each model line and hold the bar: accuracy, latency, cost per call, robustness, and the failure modes that matter to real deployments.
- Own evaluation as a product, including benchmark suites, offline and online tests, human evals, and the reporting that makes model progress legible to everyone from researchers to customers.
- Turn customer and developer feedback into concrete model and API requirements, and close the loop by telling them what changed and why.
- Partner with infra and platform teams on rollout, capacity, monitoring, and reliability for models in production.
- Drive release planning end to end: positioning, launch, migration paths for existing users, and the trade-off calls that come with each.
- Communicate priorities and trade-offs clearly across research, engineering, GTM, and leadership.
Qualifications
- 3+ years building AI/ML products, developer platforms, or APIs, ideally where the underlying model was part of the product decision rather than a fixed input.
- Working fluency with the model lifecycle: data, training, fine-tuning, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring. You do not need to train models, but you should be able to hold your own in a conversation with the people who do.
- Strong analytical instincts and genuine comfort with data. You reach for the numbers before the narrative.
- Sound judgment on trade-offs between quality, latency, and cost, and the confidence to make a call and defend it.
- Ability to work closely with researchers and earn their trust.
