Job description

Описание:

Board Intelligence is a technology and advisory firm on a mission to make boards more effective, and through them, build better businesses and benefit society. Over twenty years we have established ourselves as the market leader in governance and board effectiveness, trusted by more than 80,000 directors, executives, and governance professionals globally, including across the Fortune 500, FTSE 100, and OMX 30. That trust has been earned through depth of insight, rigorous advisory work, and a track record that newer entrants simply cannot replicate. We have invested in applied AI since 2020, well ahead of the market, and that early conviction has paid off. Our AI-powered platform and smart board advisor give us a competitive advantage that is widening, not narrowing. In 2024, K1 Investment Management, the leading B2B Enterprise SaaS investor, backed us to accelerate that position further. We are now growing fast, with a proven commercial model spanning both mid-market and enterprise, and a product suite that has become a necessary addition in high-stakes board environments. The people joining us now will shape how we scale. We are deliberate about how we do that. Our founders and leadership team are deeply invested in keeping the culture that got us here: thoughtful, high calibre, and genuinely human. Ambition and balance are not in competition at Board Intelligence. If you want to work at the intersection of AI and governance, on problems that matter at the highest level, this is a strong place to be. We unleash the potential of organisations through the science of board effectiveness, building better businesses and benefitting society. Board Intelligence is growing fast, and our engineering team is at the centre of that growth. We are building AI-powered products for some of the most demanding clients in the world, and we need exceptional leaders to help us do it. We are looking for an experienced engineering leader to join our engineering leadership team. At Board Intelligence, engineering leaders are also hands-on builders: you will lead and grow a team while staying technical and contributing to our products. This role needs real seniority. We are looking for someone who coaches and mentors naturally, sets high standards and brings people with them. You will combine broad technical knowledge with deep expertise in at least one area.
