  • Architect and execute a roadmap that supports global growth
  • Lead engineering culture, dev processes, and compliance alignment (HIPAA, ISO 27001, SOC 2)
  • Balance velocity with technical excellence and long-term scalability

You bring:

  • Leadership experience in fast-growing SaaS companies
  • A history of building production systems that handle sensitive data at scale
  • Deep comfort with shipping and maintaining GenAI and real-time platforms
  • The ability to lead from both the whiteboard and the codebase
