Plume Inaugurates First Office in India

Palo Alto-based Plume Design, a pioneer in SaaS experience platforms for communication service providers (CSPs), inaugurated its first office in Hyderabad, India. With over 500 employees catering to over 400 CSPs worldwide, this marks Plume's tenth global office and its first in India. 

The move aims to bolster global expansion efforts, particularly with regional CSPs. Led by vice president Shrinivas Bairi, formerly of Intel and Qualcomm, the Hyderabad team will focus on research and development, covering software engineering, data engineering, DevOps, and QA.

The decision to establish a presence in Hyderabad aligns with Plume's strategic partnership with Reliance Jio to serve over 200 million Indian households. Recognising India's vibrant business landscape and skilled talent pool, Plume views the country as a hub for software development excellence. The Hyderabad office will complement existing teams, concentrating on software engineering roles spanning cloud, AI, web development, and information security.

"At the end of last year, we announced a partnership with telecom leader Reliance Jio to serve over 200 million homes across India. Opening an office in Hyderabad is part of our commitment to growing this relationship, and further expanding our local market presence is key to our long-term vision," said Plume's chief development officer, Kiran Edara.

Plume is also actively hiring for its new Hyderabad office, offering various opportunities. As the creator of the world's first open, hardware-independent SaaS platform for CSPs, deployed in over 60 million locations globally, Plume empowers CSPs to deliver innovative services for smart homes and small businesses. Their platform provides self-optimising WiFi, cybersecurity, parental controls, and more, backed by robust data- and AI-driven backend applications.
