The Story
A $2B+ US technology firm decided to build its first India GCC in Pune to anchor its product engineering and data science agenda. The target — 250 hires across 14 functions in 10 months — with no existing India presence, no talent brand, and two global product milestones tied directly to the centre going live.
Techaivv was brought in as the exclusive talent partner to build the entire people foundation from the ground up.
WHAT TECHAIVV DID
Leadership hiring, lateral acquisition, and employer brand — run simultaneously with fortnightly reporting to the global CTO and GCC Board.
- Talent market mapping across Pune, Hyderabad, and Bangalore across 14 functions
- Compensation architecture benchmarked against 16 active product GCCs in Pune
- Full 5-member leadership team onboarded within 75 days of engagement start
- 280 lateral hires completed across product engineering, platform, data, and QE
- GCC employer brand built from scratch — LinkedIn, careers microsite, EVP, and campus partnerships
- Complete India HR framework covering onboarding, compensation, and performance management
Challenges Faced
The company needed experienced executive leadership immediately but faced real constraints around cost, cultural fit, and the risk of long-term misalignment with permanent hires.
The Results
The GCC enablement model delivered measurable strategic and operational progress across talent, technology, and governance within the engagement period.
Customer Reviews of the Case
"Techaivv delivered at the speed and quality our business demanded. The leadership team they built set the tone for everything — and the hiring engine they created continues to perform well beyond the engagement."
