VP of Technology

Our CTO is evolving toward a dedicated focus on innovation and future bets, and we are expanding our leadership team with a VP of Technology who will ensure our core platforms and systems can support the next phase of growth.

As a VP of Technology, you will be responsible for the technical backbone of the company. Partnering with the VP of Engineering (people, delivery), you will own architecture, scalability, reliability, and compliance across our platform.

You are not just an operator, you are a technical leader who can balance long-term architectural vision with pragmatic decision-making in a fast-paced scale-up environment. You will report directly to the CTO, and work closely with the executive team to translate business strategy into a sustainable and scalable technical foundation.
