AI solution consultant: discovery, solution design and PoCs for agentic AI and RPA in manufacturing and distribution. Pune or remote.
What I'm looking for
Solution Consultant at Nividous, in agentic AI and intelligent automation (AI agents + RPA). I organise and document client discovery workshops with our VP Sales and Director of Projects, turn requirements into PoC scope, and support pre-sales with demos, proposals and RFP responses.
I managed an AI agent + RPA PoC for MIS reporting at one of India’s largest beverage bottlers, from plant-head discovery to handover. I led RFQ automation solution design for a US industrial distributor (proposed implementation ~$120K). I managed a procurement PoC for a major Indian media group that added vendor RFQs and agent-assisted quote comparison to its PR-to-PO workflow.
At CircleHD, a US B2B SaaS company, I led go-to-market research for the India launch. I benchmarked competitors and shaped the module offering and pricing for Indian buyers with the CTO and CEO. I also delivered 30+ technical pre-sales demos, managed delivery of an instructor-led training microservice as acting product manager, and designed prompts for an AI role-play feature.
I build AI tools with coding agents: a RAG assistant over ~180 books and talks with page-level citations and deterministic quote checking, a local transcription pipeline, and open-source tooling for AI coding agents.
