Founding Team

Build the AI consulting firm you'd want to work at

CoVector AI is hiring its founding team. Four roles, zero playbooks. You'll shape how we work, what we build, and where we go.

About CoVector AI

CoVector AI is the AI consulting arm of Florintree Advisors, a PE/VC fund. We work with portfolio companies — and select external clients — to identify, build, and deploy AI solutions that create real value. We're a small, early-stage team that prioritises depth over breadth. We spend a significant portion of our time on R&D — reading papers, experimenting with new models and tools, and building proof-of-concepts — so that when we advise, we're speaking from hands-on experience, not slides.

R&D-First

Exploration and experimentation are built into every role.

Ground Floor

Shape how we operate, not just execute a playbook.

Client Access

Work directly with CEOs and CTOs, not middle management.

Variety

Different industries, different problems, no job-hopping required.

Open Roles

All roles are 0–2 years experience, Mumbai in-office, full-time. Fresh graduates welcome.

Associate – AI Consulting

Mumbai, in-officeFull-time
Technical track
R&D 30%
Delivery 70%

The split is roughly 30% R&D, 70% delivery. Most of your time will be spent building — POCs, pipelines, LLM applications, client-facing tools — with a regular slice reserved for staying sharp on what’s coming next. This is not a maintenance role. If you want to spend your first two years doing new things, building real products, and working on problems you haven’t seen solved cleanly yet, this is the job.

Associate – Business Consulting

Mumbai, in-officeFull-time
Business track
R&D 10%
Delivery 90%

The split is roughly 10% R&D, 90% delivery. You’ll spend most of your time building the deliverables that clients actually use to make decisions — market research, structured analyses, executive presentations, workshop outputs, proposals. This is not a PowerPoint factory. The work is substantive: understanding business problems, structuring clear thinking about them, and producing outputs that move things forward. You’ll work closely with senior consultants and have direct exposure to CEOs and CTOs from day one.

Associate – AI Research

Mumbai, in-officeFull-time
Specialist track
R&D 70%
Delivery 30%

The split is roughly 70% R&D, 30% delivery. Most of your time will be spent at the frontier — reading papers, running experiments, benchmarking models, and building proof-of-concepts. The remaining time translates that work into something clients can use. The loop from research to production is tight here. You won’t be writing papers that sit in a drawer. What you learn and build feeds directly into client engagements, internal tools, and the firm’s technical direction.

Associate – AI Governance

Mumbai, in-officeFull-time
Specialist track
R&D 40%
Delivery 60%

The split is roughly 40% R&D, 60% delivery. You’ll spend your time on one of the least-solved problems in enterprise AI: how organisations actually govern, audit, and deploy AI responsibly — especially in regulated sectors like BFSI. The frameworks and standards here are still being written. This role isn’t about implementing a playbook someone else designed. It’s about figuring out what good looks like and helping our clients get there before the regulators force it.

How We Hire

Our hiring process is automated and AI-powered — because we practice what we preach.

1

Resume + GitHub Screen

Your application is evaluated by an AI agent against structured rubrics designed by our team. For technical roles, your GitHub portfolio is assessed for quality and depth. You'll hear back within 48 hours.

2

AI Build Challenge

Shortlisted candidates receive a practical challenge. You'll have time to build something real — we're looking at how you think and execute, not trick questions. Submissions are evaluated by AI against predefined criteria, with human review of borderline cases.

3

Face-to-Face Interview

Final conversations with the team — no AI here, just people. We talk about your work, your thinking, and what you want to build. This is mutual: you're evaluating us too.

Transparency note: You can request a summary of your AI evaluation scores and reasoning at any stage. Read more about how we use AI in hiring in our AI Policy.
