Our ecosystem combines real-world infrastructure, digital ownership, and high-performance fintech platforms trusted by hundreds of thousands of users worldwide.

We are looking for a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) who brings deep technical expertise together with strong business thinking and long-term strategic vision, and who can shape technology as the foundation of a truly global product.

Responsibilities

Technology Strategy & Vision

• Define and own our long-term technology vision aligned with business goals.
• Translate company strategy into clear technical roadmaps and execution plans.
• Balance innovation, speed, scalability, and cost efficiency across all products.
• Make architecture decisions that support growth, security, and operational excellence.

Business & Product Alignment

• Act as a strategic partner to the CEO, product, finance, and operations teams.
• Evaluate business ideas and initiatives from a technical and ROI perspective.
• Ensure technology enables monetization, scalability, and global expansion.
• Participate in strategic planning, M&A discussions, and new product launches.

Platform, Architecture & Infrastructure

• Own system architecture across products, data, and infrastructure.
• Ensure high availability, security, performance, and scalability.
• Oversee cloud infrastructure, DevOps, CI/CD, monitoring, and reliability.
• Lead technical decisions around blockchain, data platforms, and integrations.

Team Leadership & Execution

• Build, lead, and scale high-performing engineering and infrastructure teams.
• Set clear standards for engineering quality, delivery, and accountability.
• Create strong managers and tech leads, not just individual contributors.
• Foster a culture of ownership, transparency, and continuous improvement.

Process & Operational Excellence

• Establish efficient development processes, delivery cycles, and governance.
• Improve predictability of delivery — timelines, risks, and dependencies.
• Optimize costs, technical debt, and resource allocation.
• Implement metrics for engineering performance and system health.

Risk, Security & Compliance

• Own security, data protection, and infrastructure risk management.
• Ensure compliance with regulatory, financial, and operational requirements.
• Anticipate technical risks and proactively address them.

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in engineering leadership roles, including CTO, VP Engineering, or Head of Engineering.
• Strong technical background with experience in scalable backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and modern architectures.
• Proven experience working closely with business leaders and influencing strategy.
• Ability to think in terms of ROI, scalability, trade-offs, and long-term impact, not just technology.
• Experience building and leading distributed, international engineering teams.
• Track record of delivering complex products in high-growth environments.
• Strong decision-making skills in ambiguous, fast-moving contexts.
• Excellent communication skills — able to explain complex ideas simply.
• Fluent English (C1+).
• Experience in fintech, crypto, Web3, or infrastructure-heavy products is a strong plus, but not mandatory.

We Offer

• Learning support — courses, English classes, conferences (up to 100% reimbursement)
• Unique loyalty program — corporate digital miners with passive income potential
• Team retreats — company-sponsored trips to Turkey, Bali, and other locations
• Memorable internal events and recognition programs
• Flexible days off — local holidays + sick days + up to 28 vacation days
• Fully remote setup with flexible working hours
• Real influence — this role shapes the future of the company, not just the tech stack
