Job description

We're looking for a builder NOT a traditional CTO

This is an opportunity for an experienced technology executive who still enjoys architecting systems, solving technical problems, mentoring engineers, and building products—not simply managing them.

You will lead our technology strategy while remaining closely connected to engineering execution, AI innovation, data platforms, automation, and product development. You'll work directly alongside executive leadership to shape the future of our healthcare technology ecosystem, helping us scale intelligent products that improve patient outcomes and operational efficiency.

This role combines executive leadership with hands-on technical influence. If your passion lies in creating high-performing engineering teams, designing scalable architectures, leveraging AI to solve real-world problems, and building products from concept to production, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Lead

• Define and execute technology strategy and roadmap
• Build and mentor a high-performing global engineering organization
• Drive software architecture, AI initiatives, automation, cloud infrastructure, and platform scalability
• Establish engineering standards, governance, CI/CD, security, and development best practices
• Partner with Founders to align technology investments with business priorities
• Evaluate emerging technologies, AI models, and product opportunities

Required Experience

• Google Cloud Platform (GCP), including cloud-native architecture, infrastructure, and data services
• AI/LLMs, prompt engineering, agentic AI, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and workflow automation
• Software architecture and scalable system design
• Python and modern backend development
• API design and integration (REST/FastAPI or similar)
• CI/CD, DevOps, and engineering best practices
• Git/GitHub, version control, and engineering governance
• PostgreSQL or equivalent relational databases
