The posting

The Mission Deriv is seeking a Head of Engineering who is a "Builder-First" leader. You are someone who started in the trenches of full-stack development and scaled to the executive suite by out-engineering the status quo. We are not looking for a "maintenance" leader. We need a Transformer. You are someone who has looked at traditional monolithic or microservice architectures, identified the bottlenecks of human-led processes, and pivoted entire organizations toward AI-first architectures—where AI isn't just a feature, but the core engine of decision-making and system optimization. What Sets This Role Apart Architectural Sovereignty: You will have the mandate to challenge our current stack. If a legacy process slows us down; you have the authority to re-engineer it using AI. AI Roadmap Ownership: You won't just "implement" AI; you will redefine our operations and how we manage our business with it. Global Elite Leadership: You will lead a "special forces" team of global AI engineers, setting a culture of high-density talent where the best ideas win, regardless of hierarchy. Your Challenges at Deriv The AI-Native Migration: Pivot the organization from "Traditional Tech" (manual CI/CD, static rule engines) to AI-Native Operations featuring self-healing systems and automated code generation. Real-Time Non-Deterministic Systems: Build and lead AI systems that handle complex, non-deterministic tasks in real-time within a high-stakes trading environment. The "Fast AI" Paradox: Master the art of integrating heavy models and tools without sacrificing speed, ensuring AI never comes at the cost of high-latency performance. Full-Stack Precision Sovereignty: Oversee the entire lifecycle, from backend memory management precision to the fluidity of high-performance frontend interfaces. Radical Process Re-Engineering: Transform workflows by identifying human-led bottlenecks and replacing them with AI-driven optimization. Orchestrating Brilliance: Manage and provide vision for world-class AI engineers and system architects who are specialists in their niches Your Toolkit (Preferred) Core: Deep experience in C++, Rust, Go, or Python (high-performance contexts). AI/ML: Expertise in LLM fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, Vector databases (Milvus/Pinecone), and MLOps. Systems: Expertise in Kubernetes, distributed systems, and kernel-level optimizations for low-latency data streaming. Why Deriv? We operate at the edge of what is possible in fintech. We are a debt-free, profitable, and fast-moving organization that treats engineering as our primary product.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
