Who this is for

Consumer internet, fintech and SaaS product roles

Founders and chief product officers reach us when a product role has stayed open too long, or when the last hire looked right on paper and did not work. Talhive runs product hiring as a dedicated search, with a founder reading every brief.

In Delhi NCR the employers vary. Consumer internet companies need growth thinkers, fintech companies need people who can ship under regulation, and SaaS companies need product managers who can work with customers and engineers on a long roadmap. The same title covers very different jobs, so the search starts with the job.

Roles by seniority

Seniority from associate PM to chief product officer

Each level owns a different kind of decision.

Product managers

Own a feature area or a product line, write the specification and carry the outcome with engineering and design. Our guide to hiring a good product manager covers the signals.

Group and principal PMs

Manage several product managers or own a large area of the product. See when to hire a first group product manager.

Heads of product and CPOs

Set product strategy, shape the team and hold the roadmap to account at the leadership table. Searches at this level run through our Delhi NCR executive search method.

Region context

Product talent that moves between Delhi, Gurugram and Noida

Context for how we run the search, not a claim about market size.

One pool, many employers.

A product manager in Noida may weigh offers in Gurugram and Delhi. A brief that names the whole region reaches all of them.

Competition is for the same few people.

Consumer, fintech and SaaS employers court the same product managers, so a clear proposition matters as much as the brief.

How we assess

Evidence of product judgement we look for

Candidates are assessed across twelve dimensions. Three matter most for product.

Decisions

What they chose, and what they left out.

We ask for specific decisions, the trade-offs behind them and what happened next, not a list of shipped features.

Outcomes

What changed because of their work.

Ownership means carrying the result, including the ones that did not work. We separate contribution from credit.

Partnership

How they work with engineering.

We look at how a product manager handles disagreement, scope and sequencing. Our interview framework shows the approach.

Common mistake

A growth PM is not an enterprise PM

One generic scorecard hides the difference.

01

Growth product work

Fast experiments, funnel thinking and consumer behaviour. It rewards speed and comfort with imperfect data.

02

Platform and fintech product work

Reliability, compliance and dependencies across teams. It rewards care and the ability to say no.

03

Enterprise and SaaS product work

Long customer relationships and a roadmap balancing many accounts. Read why the business and consumer hires are not portable.

How the search works

Steps from role scorecard to shortlist

Each stage ends with a decision from you before the next begins.

  1. Stage one
    01

    Write the scorecard.

    Product type, scope and outcomes.

    • Which kind of product work the role is
    • Decisions the hire will own
    • What you will not compromise on
  2. Stage two
    02

    Map the region.

    Passive mapping across the three sub-markets.

    • Product teams at comparable employers
    • Approaches written around the product
    • An early read on motivation
  3. Stage three
    03

    Assess and shortlist.

    Twelve dimensions, a maximum of five profiles.

    • A written synopsis for each profile
    • Shipped decisions tested in depth
    • An honest view of risk
  4. Stage four
    04

    Close and protect.

    The search ends at joining, not at signature.

    • Offer and counter-offer planning
    • Notice-period tracking to the start date
    • 90-day replacement guarantee
Frequently asked

Product hiring questions from founders and CPOs

Plain answers to the questions we hear most often about this search.

From product managers through group and principal PMs to heads of product and chief product officers. Leadership searches follow our executive search method. We tell you early if the level you describe is closer to a different role than the title suggests.
Searches are dedicated rather than contingent, with milestone-based fees agreed before work starts, and placements carry a 90-day replacement guarantee. The exact terms are in the engagement agreement, so ask to see them before you sign.
Yes. We assess technical depth through what the person has shipped with engineering, not through a test of vocabulary. For AI-specific roles, the profile differs again, so the scorecard is written for the product before outreach begins.
No. Gurgaon and Gurugram are the same city, and product managers move between it, Delhi and Noida. One brief for the region reaches more of the right people, and any location requirement is settled up front.

Brief us on your next product hire

Share the role and the product it serves. A founder will respond, and we will say honestly whether a dedicated search is the right route.
