What will you own?

• Own the architecture of RockED’s full stack: Node.js backend services, React web apps, React Native mobile apps, data layer and cloud infrastructure.
• Design scalable, resilient, maintainable systems with clear service boundaries, API contracts and data models.
• Lead architecture and design reviews, and document key decisions and trade-offs so the whole team understands the “why.”

Zero-to-one builds and system evolution

• Build new systems and products from scratch, from first design to production rollout.
• Lead major system redesigns and migrations, evolving the platform without disrupting users.
• Pay down tech debt strategically, knowing when to refactor, when to rebuild and when to leave it alone.

Hands-on engineering

• Write production code across the stack every week. This isn’t a “slides and diagrams” architect role.
• Build core business logic, APIs and data pipelines, and design relational database schemas for integrity, security and fast retrieval.
• Own features end to end, from design to deployment and monitoring.

Performance and user experience at scale

• Make our apps fast, from API response times and database query optimisation to mobile app performance and front-end rendering.
• Build with the end user in mind: smooth, reliable and responsive experiences on every device.
• Set up observability (logging, monitoring and tracing) so problems are caught before users notice them.

AI-native architecture

• Define how AI fits into the platform, including LLM integrations, RAG pipelines, AI agents and intelligent features that make learning more personal.
• Prototype quickly, measure honestly, and take AI from hackathon idea to production-grade feature.
• Lead AI-assisted development in engineering: AI coding tools, automated testing and code review.

Technical influence and standards

• Build agreement on architecture decisions through clear thinking and strong communication, not authority.
• Explain complex trade-offs simply to engineers, product managers and leadership alike.
• Mentor engineers through code reviews, design discussions and pairing, and raise the technical bar across the team.
• Work closely with Product and Design to turn ideas into well-built products and shape the technical roadmap.

Who Tends to Thrive Here?

Experience

• 10–13 years in software engineering, with significant experience at high-growth, product-based startups.
• Proven experience building systems from zero to one and leading major architecture and design changes.
• Prior work on B2C applications where performance and user experience mattered.

Technical depth (must-have)

• Extensive hands-on expertise in the JavaScript ecosystem: Node.js on the backend; React and React Native on the frontend.
• Strong command of relational databases: schema design, query optimisation, indexing and data integrity.
• Solid system design: distributed systems, microservices, event-driven architecture, API design (REST/GraphQL) and caching strategies.
• Strong engineering fundamentals: CI/CD, automated testing (unit, integration, end-to-end), code quality and secure coding practices (OWASP).
• Experience with Sequelize, MongoDB and AWS (e.g., EC2, Lambda, RDS, S3).
• Experience with mobile-first products and app performance tuning.

AI expertise (must-have)

• Hands-on experience building with LLMs: prompt engineering, RAG, embeddings, vector databases and AI APIs.
• A forward-looking view of where AI is heading, and how to architect for it.
• Daily use of AI tools in your own engineering workflow.

Who you are

• Geeky and curious: you read engineering blogs for fun, try every new tool, and are always learning.
• A builder at heart: you’d rather ship than talk about shipping.
• An influencer, not a manager: you lead through expertise and earn trust through good decisions.
• A clear communicator: you make complex ideas simple and trade-offs obvious.
• Experimental and resilient: you try bold ideas, learn quickly from what doesn’t work, and see things through to completion.

Why leaders choose RockED

• Architect at the source: shape the technical foundation of a platform used across the US automotive industry.
• An AI-first playground: leadership backing to experiment with and ship AI features, plus regular AI hackathons. [Add hackathon highlights and AI projects.]
• A real seat at the table: work directly with RockED's founders and US leadership. Your voice shapes company strategy, not just engineering execution.
• A proven business to scale: 10,000+ dealerships, 60,000+ learners and 11M+ lesson completions. You'll be scaling a business with established product-market fit.
• Global leadership exposure: lead across US and India teams, and build your profile as a leader of global product engineering.
• A team worth leading: engineers from IIT and ISB, and alumni of Adobe, Microsoft, Walmart and more, in a culture of high ownership and fast decision-making.
• Room to grow with the company: as RockED scales, so does the scope of this role.
• Care for you and your family: health and insurance coverage, fully sponsored by RockED.

What We're Looking For:

We are seeking a creative, highly skilled Video Editor who blends classic editing craft with modern, AI-powered production. You'll bring strong expertise in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, along with hands-on experience in today's AI video stack tools like HeyGen, Runway, Sora, Veo, and ElevenLabs. The ideal candidate has a keen eye for storytelling, pacing, and visual aesthetics, capable of turning raw footage, scripts, or a single idea into impactful videos that simplify complex concepts and engage learners. In 2026, that also means knowing when AI can get you there faster and when human craft should lead.

You'll collaborate with our design and content teams in the US to produce the short-form Guides (our microlearning videos) that dealership teams across America learn from every day.

● Edit and assemble raw video content into polished, engaging final outputs optimised for mobile, digital, and

e-learning platforms.

● Create animation-based educational videos and visual sequences using Adobe After Effects.

● Produce AI-assisted videos end-to-end, avatar-led explainers in HeyGen, AI voiceovers and dubbing with

ElevenLabs, and generative b-roll or concept visuals using tools like Runway, Sora, or Veo.

● Design and implement motion elements, transitions, text animations, and infographics to enhance storytelling.

● Collaborate with designers, content creators, and instructional teams to translate scripts and ideas into visual

stories.

● Add sound design, voiceovers, and background music for emotional and narrative impact.

● Ensure consistency in video style, tone, and quality across all projects.

● Manage project files, maintain organised workflows, and meet production deadlines.

● Stay on top of the fast-moving AI video landscape, new models, features, and releases and proactively

recommend tools and techniques that level up our production pipeline.

What skills do you need?

● A degree in Film Editing, Animation, Multimedia Production, or equivalent hands-on experience

● Strong Premiere Pro and After Effects skills, including real animation and compositing chops

● Real, hands-on time with AI video tools — avatar platforms like HeyGen, voice tools like ElevenLabs, and

generative models like Sora, Veo, or Runway

● A genuine read on the AI model landscape — what it's good at, where it still falls short, and the judgment to

know when to lean on it versus when to do it by hand

● An eye for pacing, composition, and visual storytelling

● Working knowledge of colour correction, sound design, and typography in video

● Sharp creative instincts and an obsession with the details

● The ability to juggle multiple projects and ship on tight timelines without losing quality

● A portfolio that shows it — short-form, educational, or explainer work preferred, and if you've built something with AI tools, show us exactly how you used them

Why choose a career at RockED?

● Build Product from Day One: Work in a small, high-growth product-based team solving real problems

and building meaningful, user-focused products from the ground up

● AI Exposure: Be part of an innovative, video-first EdTech startup shaping the future of learning. Work at the

intersection of AI and creativity. AI already powers our product (like our AI Coach roleplay feature) and our

production pipeline.

● Learn from Industry Leaders: Our crew in India is folks from IIT, ISB, and people who’ve built at Adobe,

Microsoft, Walmart, and more — but the vibe is very startup: high ownership, quick decisions, and flat

hierarchy.

● Global Exposure: Be part of a diverse, high-calibre team working closely across the US and India.

● Hybrid Model: In-office days are Tuesdays & Wednesdays, but the office is always buzzing throughout

the week

● Wellness and Insurance support for you and your family—fully sponsored by RockED

● Spot awards, team outings, thoughtful gifts, celebrations, fitness challenges

About RockED

RockED is a performance development platform built for the automotive industry. We partner with over 10,000 dealerships across the U.S., as well as major OEMs who use our platform to run and manage their own training programmes at scale. Our mobile-first app helps dealerships onboard new hires faster, develop stronger teams, and reduce turnover by delivering bite-sized training to sales reps, service advisors, and technicians right on their phones.

The platform spans learning and performance management. On the learning side, it includes an AI Coach for personalised practice , gamified learning along with role-based certifications. On the performance management side, the platform surfaces real-world performance data for dealership staff, such as service advisors, and recommends targeted training based on that data to drive measurable improvement on the floor. We are headquartered in Florida with our R&D team in India, backed by investors with strong roots in automotive and EdTech.

The Role

We're looking for a Product Manager to join our product team in Bengaluru. You'll work closely with engineering, design, content, and our U.S-based leadership to help shape the RockED platform, with real ownership over what we build and how we build it.

You should be someone who cares about the craft of product work: writing tight specs, asking the right questions, and sweating the details on UX. At the same time, you're practical and know how to move things forward in a small team.

What You'll Do

• Own the roadmap for key parts of the platform: learner experience, engagement, content delivery, and admin tools.
• Talk to customers regularly. Our users are dealership managers, sales reps, and technicians. Understanding their world is a big part of the job.
• Write PRDs and user stories that are clear enough that engineers can run with them without a lot of back-and-forth.
• Work with design on the details. You should have opinions on UX and feel comfortable pushing back when something feels off.
• Coordinate with our US team on launches, timelines, and stakeholder updates. Some overlap with US hours is part of the role.
• Track what's working. You'll define the metrics that matter for your areas and use them to prioritize what gets built next.
• Support growth and engagement efforts using tools like MoEngage, CleverTap, or HubSpot.

What We're Looking For

• Strong, proven hands-on experience in product role. EdTech or B2B SaaS background is a plus, but we care more about how you think than where you've worked.
• Strong product sense. You can clearly explain what a feature is for, who it serves, and what success looks like.
• Good design intuition. You notice when something is off in a flow, can sketch out an alternative, and give useful feedback.
• Comfortable in technical conversations. You don't need to write code, but you should understand trade-offs and not need things over-explained.
• Clear communicator in English, written and verbal. You'll be writing docs and presenting to US stakeholders regularly.
• Comfortable with data. You can write basic SQL, know your way around an analytics tool, and have good instincts for what the numbers are actually telling you.
• Sharp prioritization instincts. You know how to find the version of a feature that delivers most of the value at a fraction of the scope.
• Comfortable using AI in your day-to-day work, whether that's for design, prototyping, writing, or coding. In a small team, knowing how to move fast with these tools makes a real difference.
• Able to work independently and manage priorities without a lot of hand-holding. Startup pace is real here.

Why Join Us

• We're growing fast, over 100% revenue growth year on year, and there's a lot to build. You'll work on problems that matter to real people doing their jobs every day.
• You'll work with a team that spans the U.S and India, and get exposure to investors who've built and exited multiple companies.
• Competitive salary and periodic in-person workcations.
