  • Influence strategic decisions through structured recommendations, relevant data, and clear business rationale.
  • Lead engineering and data teams through senior managers and technical leads, supporting organizational effectiveness and leadership development.
  • Oversee platform architecture, cloud infrastructure, scalability, reliability, performance, and technology cost efficiency.
  • Strengthen analytics and data capabilities to provide reliable insights for executive and operational decision-making.
  • Own technology security, data privacy, compliance, access governance, and broader technology risk management.
  • Manage technology budgets, vendors, infrastructure expenditure, and build-versus-buy decisions.
  • Identify and evaluate opportunities to apply AI and automation to improve engineering workflows, operational efficiency, and broader business productivity.
  • Build strong relationships across business and technology functions while maintaining alignment around shared objectives.
  • 10+ years of experience in technology leadership roles within startups, scale-ups, or other fast-growing businesses.
  • Proven experience leading engineering and/or data organizations through senior managers, engineering leaders, or technical leads.
  • Strong stakeholder management experience, including direct collaboration with CEOs, founders, and senior leadership teams.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities and build alignment across multiple business functions.
  • Excellent executive-level communication, influencing, negotiation, and decision-making skills.
  • Ability to translate complex technical subjects into clear business outcomes, risks, investment considerations, and recommendations.
  • Strong understanding of cloud-native platforms, modern software architecture, data systems, infrastructure, scalability, and reliability.
  • Experience managing technology budgets, external vendors, infrastructure costs, and strategic technology investments.
  • Ability to make high-impact decisions in ambiguous, rapidly changing environments while maintaining a pragmatic and business-focused approach.
  • Strong leadership, organizational, analytical, and problem-solving capabilities.
  • Experience in regulated or data-sensitive sectors such as fintech, insurance, financial services, or similar industries is preferred.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits.
  • Fully remote and flexible working environment within India.

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.
