Job Description
About Us
We are a highly profitable, EBITDA-positive, Y-Combinator-backed SaaS company revolutionizing omnichannel commerce. Our AI-powered stack helps hundreds of top consumer brands automate sales and user acquisition across platforms like WhatsApp, Instagram, and major food delivery networks. Backed by top-tier global investors, we are scaling rapidly and looking for a technical leader to guide our next phase of growth.
The Role: Player-Coach (60% IC / 40% Management)
We are looking for a Head of Technology who is part architect, part tech lead, and part engineering manager. This is not a pure management role where you sit in meetings all day. We need a hands-on technical powerhouse who will spend 60% of their time deeply involved in the code, PR reviews, and system design, and 40% managing and scaling our lean, high-performing engineering team.
If you thrive in the balance of shipping fast, paying down technical debt, and building scalable multi-tenant architectures, this is for you.
What You'll Own
Architecture & Scale: Own the health of a production multi-tenant Node.js/TypeScript and Java backend serving massive real-time messaging traffic.
Cloud & Infrastructure: Drive deep AWS architecture decisions, ensuring maximum uptime, system reliability, and stringent cloud cost optimization.
Code Quality & Standards: Lead by example. Set the bar for PR reviews, test coverage, and error-handling patterns. You are bothered by silent failures and swallowed errors.
Team Leadership: Currently manage a lean team of 3 highly capable engineers (FE, BE, AI), with the mandate to mentor, guide, and scale the team in the coming months.
AI Integration: Oversee the expansion of our product into AI agents and voice workflows (prior AI experience is a plus, but a strong ability to learn on the job is required).
What We're Looking For
Experience: 7–10 years of backend software engineering experience, with a proven track record as a Lead, Staff Engineer, or Engineering Manager in a fast-paced startup environment.
Core Stack: Deep, hands-on production expertise in Node.js/TypeScript or Java (Spring Boot).
Cloud Infrastructure: Exceptional command over AWS. You must be able to design systems from scratch, manage infrastructure, and optimize costs efficiently.
System Design: Strong experience with relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL), async/event-driven systems, and handling scale.
Work Ethic: You roll up your sleeves. You ask why does this fail in production before asking why didn't someone write a test
Why Join Us
High Impact: Direct access to founders, meaningful equity ownership, and the ability to shape the engineering culture from the ground up.
Stability & Growth: We are a profitable, fast-growing startup where your code directly impacts the bottom line of massive D2C brands.
No Red Tape: We ship fast, iterate, and value builders over bureaucrats.
