Responsibilities

  • Own the technical and product roadmap in partnership with the GM, product team, and customers.
  • Make final technical decisions across architecture, code quality, security, data modeling, performance, release engineering, and vendor migrations.
  • Build and ship production AI workflows with evaluations, guardrails, tenant-safe tool use, and customer-facing features.
  • Operate as the sole engineer while improving architecture, automation, testing, documentation, and readiness for future hires.
  • Introduce disciplined delivery practices including trunk-based development, automated testing, staging environments, feature flags, and reliable deployment paths.
  • Improve platform velocity, resilience, operational efficiency, and cloud and vendor cost management.
  • Own production security and data handling, including least-privilege access and protection of sensitive data in non-production environments.

  • Strong product and business judgment, including roadmap prioritization and distinguishing costly technical debt from lower-impact cleanup.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with non-engineering stakeholders.
  • Preferred experience with multi-tenant SaaS architecture and access-control or isolation challenges.
  • Preferred experience operating event-driven and queue-backed systems at meaningful volume, including throughput, backpressure, idempotency, and provider degradation.
  • Preferred cross-platform mobile experience and experience maintaining a mobile release channel.
  • Preferred deep third-party integration experience involving APIs, webhooks, file-based handoffs, and undocumented customer systems.
  • Preferred security and privacy engineering experience, including SOC 2, PII minimization, encryption, secrets management, and audit logging.
  • Preferred experience replacing costly vendor dependencies in-house without a disruptive rewrite.
  • Preferred vertical or B2B SaaS experience where buyers and end users differ.
