Descripción del empleo

We’re looking for a hands-on, visionary Chief Technology Officer to lead our client into its next chapter.

As CTO, you’ll:

• Lead and grow a distributed engineering team (currently 5 developers, mostly in LatAm)
• Own architecture and technical decision-making across our stack
• Drive a clear, forward-looking technical vision, especially around AI chat solutions and AI-assisted development workflows
• Improve dev velocity and reliability by strengthening QA, CI/CD, and operational processes
• Collaborate closely with Product and Design to turn customer needs into beautifully executed software
• Report directly to the CEO and work alongside the CPO to shape strategy and roadmap
  

Our Stack

• Frontend: Vue.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS
• Backend: Spring Boot (Java & Kotlin)

• Previous experience as a Software Architect or Team lead in a start-up environment or corporate.
• Proven experience leading and scaling high-performing engineering teams in a startup or growth-stage environment
• Strong architectural experience across full-stack platforms, especially cloud-native, containerized deployments
• Deep comfort with modern dev practices: CI/CD, test automation, incident response, observability, etc.
• Experience integrating or building advanced AI/ML systems (especially LLMs or conversational agents)
• Ability to build remote-first team culture: clear communication, ownership, mentorship, and velocity
• A product-oriented mindset—comfortable working cross-functionally to find scrappy, elegant solutions
  

Benefits

• Work remotely Monday - Friday, 40 hours a week (no weekends)
• Vacation: 10 business days a year
• Holidays: 5 National Holidays a year
