Descripción del empleo

LVO Industries is a permanent capital holding company. We acquire family-owned and owner-operated businesses and partner with them to ensure their long-term success. At LVO, you’ll join a small, dynamic team operating in an entrepreneurial environment.

Role & Responsibilities :

As CTO, you are the digital control tower of the LVO group, responsible for the digital aspects of every portfolio company: Odoo, AI, software development and the Microsoft stack. You bring strong engineering and real AI expertise, set the standards, and make sure the right technology choices and practices are followed everywhere. The job is as much about coaching the teams as building IT solutions yourself in Odoo, AI and beyond. Your responsibilities will evolve over time, and will at least include:

• make sure all digital tools (Odoo, AI agents, the Microsoft stack, other third-party software) are well chosen and used to their full potential across teams.
• ensure the IT teams are highly efficient and well-functioning, coaching them on engineering and AI best practices, code quality and testing.
• drive the development of AI agents to accelerate automation, improve customer satisfaction and replace costly tools, building them yourself and enabling the POs and IT teams to build and run them.
• implement, follow up and continuously optimize Odoo across the portfolio companies.
• oversee the broader technical foundation: hosting, architecture, cybersecurity, testing and data.
• help select external providers and partners, and make sure they deliver.

Success means a digital strategy that performs across the group: strong automation, a better experience for staff and customers, solid cybersecurity, and technology that is future-proof and cost-effective.
