Local hiring notes
- Cloud and data engineering supply is strong because of the concentration of large GCCs.
- Many candidates are moving between GCCs; career growth and scope win more often than pay alone.
- Relocation from other cities is common for senior roles; we include relocation intent in dossiers.

Skills we vet for product managers
We hire product managers who can write a sharp spec, say no with evidence and earn engineers' trust. We screen on shipped outcomes, not frameworks.
| Skill | How we evidence it |
|---|---|
| Discovery | How they validated a problem before building |
| Prioritisation | A roadmap trade-off and how they defended it |
| Technical fluency | Depth appropriate to the product: APIs, data or platform |
| Metrics | A metric they moved and how they knew it was causal |
| Communication | Written spec sample or a live walk-through |

- “Show us a spec you are proud of (redacted).”
Questions
Do you hire PMs without an engineering background?
Yes, if the role allows it. We screen technical fluency to the level your product needs and say so on the dossier.
Can you hire product owners for GCCs?
Yes. GCC product roles often sit closer to delivery; we calibrate on that in the brief.
Why are so many GCCs choosing Hyderabad?
A combination of talent supply in cloud and data, modern office infrastructure and costs below Bengaluru. Competition is rising, so employer brand matters more each year.
