Our Client:
Our client is a fast-growing Series B startup with live enterprise deployments and top-tier VC backing. They maintain a mission-driven engineering culture that prioritizes reliability, scalability, and delivering production-grade systems.
Roles & Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end engineering execution: planning, delivery, quality, and releases.
- Lead production reliability, observability, CI/CD, testing, and incident response for multi-tenant and enterprise deployments.
- Build repeatable, secure customer go-live processes across cloud and private environments.
- Define and run the engineering operating system: planning cadence, code/design review, release discipline, on-call, and definition of done.
- Hire, set leveling and promotion standards, run performance processes, and develop engineering leads and managers.
- Partner with ML/data and Product to translate strategy into reliable, shippable software.
Profile Requirements:
- 12+ years building production software, with at least 4+ years managing engineers (including managing leads or managers).
- Proven track record running engineering for multi-team or multi-product B2B SaaS companies; experience hardening data or document-heavy systems to production-grade at scale.
- Strong technical depth: architecture, design review, and hands-on debugging; respected by senior engineers.
- Hands-on experience with multi-tenant cloud (AWS/Azure), Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability, and data pipelines.
- Demonstrated experience building engineering processes and quality culture without sacrificing delivery velocity.
- Clear, direct communicator; high agency; comfortable making decisions with incomplete information.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with regulated or security-sensitive enterprise deployments.
- Familiarity with AI/ML serving, evaluation pipelines, and GPU infrastructure.
- Experience with Java/Spring Boot, Python, React/TypeScript, PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Temporal or similar tech.
On offer:
- Opportunity to solve challenging, data-intensive problems at product scale.
- Opportunity to build engineering ground-up, influence culture, and shape long-term technical direction.
- Competitive compensation & health benefits
