- Acting as the key technical advisor to the executive team, making critical decisions that will shape the future of the company.
- Planning and executing the transition from fully offshore development to a hybrid model, with a goal of building a 50% in-house team by 2027
- Hiring, onboarding, and mentoring 4-5 engineers over the next 12 months
What you'll bring to the team:
- Demonstrable experience as the key technical leader who has scaled a company through a significant growth phase.
- A deep and pragmatic understanding of systems architecture, scalability, and modern engineering best practices.
- Hiring, coaching, and growing engineering talent
- Experience building APIs, scalable backend systems

- A competitive executive salary and a significant, meaningful Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
