We’re looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager / CTO who will own critical parts of our technical landscape and set the direction for the future. As a strong individual contributor with some experience leading teams, you’ll code daily, guide architecture, and ensure our systems remain stable and scalable.
You’ll work closely with our CEO and a small senior engineering team. Our platform is highly stable (near-100% uptime), developer-first, and headless API–driven, used by engineers worldwide.
The role also carries potential CTO scope/title depending on your background and aspirations.
Your immediate impact in the first 3-6 months will be:
- Launch our first Instagram Ads integration as part of the core product.
- Integrate with AI development/coding platforms (e.g., vibe coding tools) to expand product capabilities.
- Drive ongoing improvements to the core platform, preserving our near-100% uptime and developer-first quality.
- Code daily while leading by example, shipping features with production-quality standards.
- Lead the design and development of scalable, fault-tolerant systems and APIs.
- Own technical direction, architecture, and system reliability.
- Make pragmatic, risk-aware decisions that balance innovation with uptime.
- Collaborate with the CEO to translate product strategy into execution.
- Dive into customer issues when needed
- Mentor and grow a small engineering team (2–4 engineers over time).
- 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with proven impact at senior levels.
- Strong expertise in software design & architecture, cloud infrastructure, and distributed systems.
- Hands-on coding skills in NodeJS, React, Firebase, and APIs.
- Deep understanding of software quality practices (testing, CI/CD, documentation).
- Experience mentoring and leveling up other engineers.
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills in a remote-first, async environment.
- Pragmatic problem-solver: you balance speed with quality and know when to optimize.
- Ultimate flexibility: We’re 100% remote. Work from anywhere, anytime.
- Freedom and autonomy: A high-trust team with space to experiment and deliver impact.
- Minimum bureaucracy: We keep processes lean so you can focus on building.
- Small & friendly team: Supportive peers, knowledge-sharing, and humor included.
- A global SaaS community: Access to 350+ SaaS professionals across 21 brands, exchanging expertise and learning.
- Flexible time off: Recharge when you need to.
