Head of Product & Engineering
Full-time
Own the product and engineering path. Lead the team. Ship the platform that turns the next generation of builders into shippers.
What you'll own
- Own the product roadmap and engineering execution end-to-end
- Lead the engineering team — current builders plus the hires you bring in
- Take the platform from early primitives to production-grade systems people trust
- Set the bar on reliability, security, and EU-sovereignty as foundations, not features
- Take the founder-handover of architecture work so the founder can scale outward
What you bring
- Senior IC + tech-lead track record at a real shipping AI / infra startup
- AI-native daily: Claude Code / Cursor / Copilot + your own agent side-projects
- Comfortable in the platform layer — you have shipped production infrastructure before
- Product sense: you can answer “why are we building this?”, not just “how?”
- Bonus: prior CTO at a smaller startup
Probably not a fit if…
