Hi

Workonomics is partnering with a recently funded B2B SaaS firm whose mission is to help companies break free from vendor lock. Many companies feel their most valuable data is held hostage by large database providers; this product is their way out.

️ As Head of Engineering, you'll combine your background as an engineer (having worked with C++ commercially) with your more recent experience leading projects and/or people ️

You've probably worked in a start-up/scale-up environment before, and you've had exposure to database system design. You're able to bring the best out of engineers, foster a culture of psychological security and are comfortable in front of clients. You see yourself as a coach as well as a manager.

The role:

  • Lead a team of highly skilled C++ engineers
  • Develop the firm's technical strategy in collaboration with the C-suite
  • Bake in good tech standards and best practices as part of an ongoing drive to level up the engineering culture
  • Contribute technically, especially to design/architecture decisions, PoC builds and in technical discussions with clients.

This firm just secured funding for the next 3 years and, with some huge client wins this quarter, has a chance to really accelerate their growth trajectory over the next 9-12 months. It's a very exciting time to be joining.

If this sounds like you, please hit apply for more specifics about the company and role.
