RoleOverview

TheManager – Founder’s Office (Technology) is a high-trust, high-impact strategicrole designed for an exceptionally sharp technologist who will work directlyalongside the CTO. This person will function as a force-multiplier for the CTO— accelerating technical decision-making, removing engineering blockers, andowning critical initiatives across Product Engineering, AI/ML, Data Platforms,Architecture, and Security.

Thisis not an administrative role. You will be in the room where it happens —participating in architecture and technical strategy discussions, synthesisingcomplex technical information into executive-grade recommendations, and drivingoutcomes that directly shape the technology trajectory of the company.

KeyResponsibilities

Strategic Enablement & CTO Support

• Shadow the CTO acrossarchitecture reviews, engineering leadership meetings, client technicaldiscussions, and vendor/partner evaluations — synthesising takeaways into clearaction plans
• Serve as the CTO’s analyticaland operational backbone: research, benchmark, and translate emergingtechnology trends into actionable engineering strategy
• Prepare high-quality technicalstrategy decks, RFC reviews, and architecture presentations independently
• Identify technical bottlenecks,tech debt, and scaling risks, and proactively develop structured, sustainablesolutions before they escalate
• Actively support the CTO acrosssprint planning, roadmap prioritisation, and release cycles — from backloggrooming to go-live readiness
• Own and track engineeringdelivery metrics (velocity, uptime, defect rates, deployment frequency) incollaboration with Engineering Managers; surface data-backed insights to improve delivery efficiency
• Lead or co-lead technical RFPresponses, solution architecture documents, and proof-of-concepts for newproducts or key accounts
• Coordinate closely with Product,Engineering, DevOps, QA, and Security teams to align on technology roadmapmilestones
• Co-create the 1-year and 3-yeartechnology roadmap with the CTO — covering platform architecture, AI/MLcapability build-out, infrastructure scaling, and security posture
• Drive engineering OKR/KPItracking across functions; flag deviations and recommend corrective actionswith urgency
• Lead special projects andcross-functional technical initiatives from problem framing through to outcomedelivery
• Conduct competitive technologyanalysis, tooling/vendor benchmarks, and build-vs-buy studies to informstrategic technical pivots; research product roadmaps and run competitormapping to keep the company's technology positioning ahead of the market

Stakeholder & Communication Management

• Act as a trusted liaison betweenthe CTO and internal stakeholders, including other CXOs — ensuring clarity,alignment, and follow-through on technical commitments
• Own and maintain executivedashboards consolidating engineering, product, and business metrics for the CTOand other CXOs, and conduct structured reviews to track progress againstroadmap commitments
• Represent the CTO in selectinternal reviews, client technical discussions, or partner/integrationdiscussions when required
• Draft and review criticaltechnical documentation, architecture proposals, RFCs, and technology strategymemos

• Strong technical foundation:system design, distributed systems, cloud architecture (AWS/Azure/GCP), andmodern data stores (SQL/NoSQL/vector/graph)
• Deep understanding of AI andAnalytics products — working knowledge of AI/ML, LLMs, and data engineeringpipelines are a strong plus
• Ability to read and review code,architecture diagrams, and technical specs; hands‑on scripting (Python)preferred

• You’ve directly supported aCTO/VP Engineering through a scaling moment, major re-architecture, ortechnical crisis
• You’ve personally shipped orsignificantly contributed to a technical product or platform end-to-end
• You think in systems — not justtasks — and can see around technical corners
• You are equally comfortable inan architecture whiteboard session and a boardroom
• You have an instinct for whatmatters technically and ruthlessly prioritize accordingly
