We are seeking an experienced VP of Engineering to lead our global engineering organisation through its next chapter. Reporting directly to the CPTO, you will own engineering strategy and execution - driving the architectural evolution from single-product to multi-product, scaling our infrastructure to support millions of customers, and embedding AI into how we build and deliver software.
Your Tasks:
Engineering Strategy and AI Integration
- Define and execute a forward-looking engineering strategy with AI embedded across tooling, delivery, and SDLC practices
- Own the architectural direction of our SaaS platforms, with a focus on scalability, security, reliability, and long-term maintainability across a growing multi-product landscape.
- Champion engineering best practices and a continuous improvement mindset aligned with business goals and our privacy-first product principles.
Infrastructure Scaling and Multi-Product Architecture
- Lead the architectural evolution required to scale from hundreds of thousands to millions of customers.
- Guide the transition from a single-product to a multi-product engineering organisation, assessing existing capabilities and designing systems that support sustainable growth.
- Maintain a deep understanding of our product architecture and technology landscape, enabling sound decision-making across teams and technology boundaries.
- Act as a systems designer who can translate architectural knowledge across technologies
Execution and Delivery
- Own end-to-end delivery execution
- Establish and track engineering productivity metrics and delivery frameworks
- Optimise engineering processes to enable predictable, high-velocity delivery
- Remove blockers at scale - from technical debt to cross-team dependencies
Cross-functional Partnership
- Partner closely with Product leadership to co-own strategic planning, ensure timely and high-impact delivery, and create innovative solutions that drive business outcomes.
- Take ownership of long-term technical roadmap planning and delivery forecasting, aligning resources and timelines to support sustainable growth.
