Strategic Project Lead, Content/Media - India

Position Overview

We are seeking a Strategic Project Lead to strengthen Turing’s India delivery layer for content, creative, and multimodal AI workflows. This is a new, high-visibility role built to support content-heavy enterprise engagements and will serve as a key node in Turing’s global delivery network. This role sits at the intersection of creative production and AI systems — ideal for someone who understands how high-quality visual content is created and can translate that into scalable AI workflows.

You will own programs end-to-end — spanning client partnership, delivery systems, and creative quality — while working closely with internal teams and external partners to build production-grade datasets and pipelines. The ideal candidate brings a strong background in marketing, media, or content operations and has the delivery instincts to own programs end-to-end. 

Primary Responsibilities

1. Delivery Ownership & Client Partnership

• Own P&L and commercial outcomes for assigned content, Image, Video, and marketing AI engagements, with full accountability for scope, quality, and client satisfaction
• Define engagement strategy and delivery architecture in partnership with account leads — anticipating risks, building mitigation plans, and making the right call when trade-offs arise
• Build and deepen strategic relationships with key enterprise accounts, positioning Turing as an indispensable long-term partner for Creative AI (Image, Video & Content) workflows
• Identify and shape expansion opportunities within existing accounts, translating evolving client needs into structured, high-value programs

2. Delivery Systems & Scalable Execution

• Architect delivery frameworks that set the standard for quality and consistency across content, media, and marketing AI programs — building systems, not just processes
• Define metrics and leading indicators to proactively manage quality, speed, and cost
• Build reusable playbooks and engagement templates that compound value across accounts and reduce time-to-execution as programs scale
• Scale and structure global delivery teams, ensuring clear ownership and fast decision-making

3. Cross-Functional Influence & Strategic Alignment

• Influence cross-functional prioritization — working with US account leads, engineering, and operations to align resources and execution behind what matters most for client outcomes
• Serve as the strategic connective tissue between India delivery capacity and global account growth, ensuring both sides move with coherence and speed
• Shape Turing’s content and media service offering by bringing ground-level delivery and client insights into internal roadmap and capability-building conversations

4. Technical & Domain Leadership (Content / Marketing / Multimodal)

• Own and define quality standards for image, video, and content generation workflows.  
• Lead initiatives across image/video creation, editing, and prompt design, ensuring outputs meet real-world creative and production standards
• Work closely with internal teams and external agencies to direct, produce, and scale high-quality visual datasets
• Translate advances in GenAI and multimodal models into practical workflows for content generation, evaluation, and optimization
• Build playbooks for prompting, creative direction, and visual quality evaluation that scale across clients and use cases
