Description du poste

Job Description

Following the planned departure of our previous CTPO, we are reshaping technology leadership at the top: a hands‑off CTPO supported by three hands‑on VPs (Security & Infrastructure, Engineering and Product). As CTPO, you own StrangeBee's multi‑year technology and product vision and translate it into organizational clarity and reliable delivery, through the leaders you build, not through individual execution. You report to the CEO and lead a technology organisation of ~70 people.

This is a defining role at a pivotal moment: StrangeBee is scaling its product, its team, and its ambition, and you will shape the next chapter.

Responsibilities

• Define and drive the multi‑year technology and product strategy, in close alignment with the CEO and Revenue leadership.
• Build and lead the tech executive layer: VP Engineering, VP Product, VP Infrastructure & Security, and Head of AI report directly to you.
• Set the strategic technology direction for TheHive and Cortex, scalability, security, and reliability goals for enterprise clients, while the VP Engineering owns architecture and execution.
• Pilot the resolution of significant technical debt and major migration projects through your VPs, with clear metrics and accountability.
• Shape and grow our AI capability via a Head of AI (player‑manager over a small AI engineering team): a product AI roadmap and the adoption of AI across our internal ways of working.
• Act as an external voice for StrangeBee: speak at industry conferences, engage with the security community, and contribute to our thought leadership.
• Serve as a key member of the Leadership team and Comex.

Key Results for the First 6 Months

• A consolidated diagnostic of technical debt, migration, and security risk, with reliable baselines (measured, not estimated).
• VP Engineering and VP Product onboarded with written, non‑overlapping scopes; and Head of AI scoped and pipeline opened.
• A multi‑year technology and product roadmap arbitrated with the CEO and Revenue.
• Evidence that N‑1 leaders can restate the strategy in their own words and connect it to current work.

Requirements

• Experience as a CTPO, VP Engineering, or equivalent exec role in a B2B software scale‑up serving enterprise clients.
• Strong grounding in cybersecurity, through domain expertise or sustained exposure to security products and customers.
• A history of scaling engineering and product organisations through rapid growth.
• Experience steering technical‑debt and migration programmes without halting delivery.
• A visible presence in the tech or security community.
• Excellent communication skills in English.
• Comfortable in a lean, bootstrapped environment where pragmatism matters as much as vision.

What We Offer

• Up to €180K base salary depending on experience.
• Performance‑based variable component.
• Hybrid working from Paris.
• A real mandate to shape an organisation and leave a mark.
