The Role:

We’re looking for a hands-on, no-fluff VP of Engineering with startup scaling experience (Seed to Series A+). This is not a pure coding position, but at the beginning, coding will be required. You’ll set our technical vision, drive architecture, and lead by example—contributing directly in Golang and Python when needed while managing a team of 30 engineers and shaping a high-performing team that builds robust, real-time AI systems.

Responsibilities:

1. Technical Strategy & Execution:
   Define and execute the technical roadmap and architecture for scalable, fault-tolerant systems. Ensure best practices in CI/CD, TDD, code reviews, and overall software quality.
2. Team Leadership & Mentorship:
   Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing engineering team. Foster a culture of action, accountability, and continuous improvement.
3. Hands-On Development:
   Code in Golang and Python as needed to directly contribute to critical projects. Oversee development of real-time streaming and AI-powered systems.

What You Bring:

1. Extensive hands-on experience with Golang and Python in real-time streaming systems.
2. Experience in fields such as low-latency stream processing.
3. A proven track record of scaling early-stage startups through key growth phases.
4. The ability to balance high-level strategic leadership with deep technical involvement.

What We Offer:

1. Autonomy at speed: High-ownership roles in a fast-moving startup.
2. Remote-first flexibility: Contribute from anywhere, on your schedule.
3. Cutting-edge technology: Work on what interests you most.
4. Rewarding package: Competitive salary, life-changing equity options, and comprehensive benefits.
