FOUNDING TECHNOLOGY & OPERATIONS LEADER
Build the Technology & AI Back Office of a Canadian Law Firm — Chandigarh, India
Salary: ₹12,00,000 – ₹60,00,000 per annum + exceptional growth opportunity
Location: Chandigarh / Mohali, India
Employment: Full-time
Work Model: Primarily on-site initially, with flexibility as the operation develops
THIS IS NOT A NORMAL JOB.
We are a growing Canadian law firm with an ambitious vision:
«To build a nationally recognized law firm across Canada — and potentially expand into North America.»
We are now building the India-based technology and operations backbone that will help make that vision possible.
We are looking for one exceptionally capable, entrepreneurial and technology-driven individual to become the first key person in this operation.
You will not be joining an established department.
You will be helping build the department.
Initially, you may be the person doing many different things yourself.
As the business grows, you will have the opportunity — and ultimately the responsibility — to build the team around you.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for someone who looks at a problem and says:
“Let me figure out how to solve this using technology and AI.”
You may currently be:
- A technology leader
- CTO / aspiring CTO
- Technology entrepreneur
- AI automation specialist
- Digital operations leader
- Product/technology manager
- Full-stack technology professional
- Digital transformation specialist
- Highly capable IT professional
- Entrepreneurial operations professional with exceptional technology skills
Your exact job title today is less important to us than what you are capable of building.
AI IS CENTRAL TO THIS ROLE
We want someone who is already using AI — not someone who is merely interested in it.
You should be comfortable experimenting with and implementing modern AI tools to make the law firm's operations:
faster + smarter + more scalable + more automated.
You may be asked to use AI for:
- Workflow automation
- Customer service
- Phone-call management
- Lead intake
- CRM automation
- Data analysis
- Marketing
- SEO
- Content creation
- Social media
- Google Ads
- Reporting
- Internal knowledge management
- Document workflows
- Staff productivity
- Recruitment
- Training
- Business intelligence
We do not expect you to know every tool.
We expect you to be the kind of person who can learn a new tool, understand what it can do, test it and implement it.
YOUR FIRST MISSION
Your initial mission is to help us build the back office of a Canadian law firm from the ground up.
The first phase will focus on:
Client Communications & Phone Operations
You will help build and manage systems for:
- Incoming calls
- Call routing
- Lead intake
- Appointment scheduling
- Client follow-up
- Missed-call management
- Call analytics
- CRM integration
- Reporting
- Automation
Our goal is not simply to answer phones.
Our goal is to create a world-class client communication and intake system.
THEN WE BUILD THE REST
As the operation develops, you will help build and potentially lead:
Digital Marketing
- Social media
- Google Business Profiles
- SEO
- Google Ads
- Meta advertising
- Content marketing
- Analytics
Technology
- AI implementation
- Workflow automation
- CRM
- Integrations
- Internal systems
- Reporting dashboards
- Cybersecurity coordination
- Technology infrastructure
Operations
- Administrative support
- Recruitment systems
- Training
- Quality control
- Process development
- Performance management
Business Intelligence
- Lead tracking
- Conversion analysis
- Marketing ROI
- Client acquisition costs
- Operational KPIs
- Executive dashboards
THE FIRST PERSON MATTERS
Initially, there may not be a team underneath you.
That is intentional.
We want to see what you can accomplish personally.
You may initially:
- Configure systems yourself
- Build automations yourself
- Manage technology yourself
- Handle marketing technology yourself
- Solve operational problems yourself
- Work directly with the Canadian management team
- Research and implement AI solutions yourself
Then, as the workload grows:
You build the team.
You decide what skills are required.
You help recruit them.
You train them.
You establish processes.
You manage performance.
Eventually, you may lead a substantial technology and operations organization supporting the Canadian law firm.
YOUR POTENTIAL CAREER PATH
This role could evolve into:
Founding Technology & Operations Lead
↓
Head of India Operations & Technology
↓
Director of Technology & AI
↓
Chief Technology Officer / Chief Digital & Operations Officer
The actual progression will depend on your demonstrated ability to build and lead.
We are looking for someone who wants to grow with the organization, not someone looking for a narrowly defined job description.
COMPENSATION
₹12,00,000 – ₹60,00,000 per annum starting package.
The range is intentionally broad.
We are not looking for the cheapest candidate.
The compensation will reflect demonstrated capability, experience, leadership potential and the scale of responsibility you can take on.
A candidate capable of building and eventually leading the firm's technology and operations infrastructure could command compensation toward the upper end of the range.
Exceptional performance and long-term growth opportunities will be recognized.
WHAT WILL MAKE YOU STAND OUT?
We will be particularly interested if you can demonstrate that you have personally:
- Built something from scratch
- Automated a business process
- Implemented AI
- Integrated multiple software systems
- Built a CRM workflow
- Managed digital marketing
- Improved lead conversion
- Built dashboards
- Reduced operating costs through technology
- Created an automated workflow
- Managed a team
- Built a technology function
- Used AI to multiply your own productivity
Show us what you have built.
A portfolio, projects, automation examples, dashboards, websites, AI implementations, GitHub projects, business systems or case studies will be highly valued.
YOU WILL WORK DIRECTLY WITH CANADA
This is not a traditional outsourced IT position.
You will work closely with the leadership of the Canadian law firm.
You will learn:
- How a Canadian law firm operates
- How Canadian clients interact with businesses
- How Canadian marketing works
- How legal-industry technology is evolving
- How to build systems for a multi-office organization
- How to scale operations across Canada
You will have the opportunity to become the technology and operations architect behind the firm's expansion.
WHAT WE VALUE
We value:
Curiosity over complacency.
Execution over titles.
Problem-solving over excuses.
Learning speed over existing knowledge.
AI adoption over resistance to change.
Ownership over waiting for instructions.
Building over maintaining.
THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE
This position may not be suitable if you:
- Need a detailed instruction manual for every task
- Prefer highly repetitive work
- Are uncomfortable with ambiguity
- Do not actively use technology
- Are resistant to AI
- Only want responsibilities within an existing job description
- Need a large team before you can start producing results
We are looking for someone who is comfortable saying:
“I don't know how to do that yet — but I can figure it out.”
THE OPPORTUNITY
Imagine joining when there are four people in the India operation and eventually helping build a team of:
10 → 25 → 50 → 100+
supporting a Canadian law firm operating across multiple provinces.
You could become the person who built that infrastructure from the beginning.
That is the opportunity.
LOCATION
Chandigarh / Mohali
We are specifically establishing our India operation in the Chandigarh region because we believe the area provides an exceptional combination of:
- Talent
- Education
- Technology professionals
- English-language capability
- Quality of life
- Connectivity
- Entrepreneurial culture
HOW TO APPLY
Please do not send only a standard résumé.
We want to understand what you can actually do.
Along with your résumé, please provide a brief response to these questions:
1. If you were given responsibility for building the technology and back office of a Canadian law firm from zero, what would you build during your first 90 days?
2. What AI tools do you currently use, and how have you personally used them to improve productivity or business operations?
3. Tell us about something you have built, automated or significantly improved yourself.
4. If you had to start alone and eventually build a 50-person technology/operations team, what would your first five hires be and why?
5. What would you automate first in a law firm and why?
COME BUILD SOMETHING.
We are not hiring someone simply to fill a position.
We are looking for the person who can help us build an entirely new capability.
If you have been waiting for an opportunity where your technology skills, AI knowledge, entrepreneurial mindset and leadership potential can actually determine how far you go—
this may be that opportunity.
Build the system.
Build the team.
Build the future.
Join us at the beginning.
