Job Description

We're looking for a Head of Engineering to lead our engineering organisation as we scale through Series A and beyond. This role is about operational leadership, not being the most senior technical decision-maker, and not coding day-to-day. It's about making everyone around you more effective, more aligned, and more ambitious.

What you'll do

  • Scale an engineering team from 10 to 100+ people in product engineering orgs
  • Hire great people, keep them engaged and growing, and introduce practices to preserve autonomy and intellectual honesty
  • Establish coordination, rituals, and release practices that keep us shipping fast without sacrificing quality

What you need

  • Technical credibility without needing to be the best engineer in the room
  • Ability to engage substantively in architecture discussions and earn the respect of senior ICs
  • Experience with AI-first engineering organisations and probabilistic outputs

Why this matters

This role is about building the engineering culture that carries us from a tight-knit London team to a multi-geo organisation spanning London, New York, and Singapore. You'll partner closely with our CTO on technical direction and architecture, and with our product and design colleagues on priorities and customer impact—owning the people, process, and delivery that turn strategy into shipped product.
