You will:

• Serve as the lead technical strategist for public sector engagements, converting ambiguous mission requirements into robust architectural roadmaps and guiding onsite implementation
• Architect the fundamental frameworks for production-grade AI applications, setting the gold standard for how interactive UIs, backend systems, and AI models are integrated at scale to deliver reliable outcomes
• Guide the evolution of cloud infrastructure, ensuring security, global scalability, and long-term system integrity across all environments
• Direct the development of core platforms and shared services, ensuring they solve cross-cutting needs for diverse global client use cases
• Partner with cross-functional leadership to steer the technical roadmap, mentoring senior and junior staff and ensuring all products align with a cohesive, future-proof technical architecture
• Bridge the gap between the field and the core platform by turning real-world client lessons into the reusable patterns that power the entire engineering team

Ideally you'd have:

• Masters or Phd in Computer Science or equivalent deep industry experience in architecting complex, distributed systems
• 10+ years of full-stack expertise across Python, Node.js, and React, with a proven track record of designing high-scale architectures on Kubernetes and global cloud infrastructures (AWS/Azure/GCP)
• Expert ability to design and oversee production-grade ecosystems, ensuring world-class standards for system integrity, security, and long-term scalability
• Extensive experience deploying and troubleshooting sophisticated end-to-end solutions directly within complex, high-security client environments
• A self-driven leader capable of resolving extreme ambiguity, mentoring senior staff, and setting the technical vision for the organization
• A driver of asynchronous workflows and documentation-first cultures to streamline global engineering velocity and reduce friction
• Proficient in Arabic

Nice to haves:

• Past experience working at a startup as a CTO or founding engineer or in a forward deployed engineer / dedicated customer engineer role
• Experience working cross functionally with operations
• Proven track record of building LLM-driven solutions with the strategic foresight to anticipate landscape shifts and architect future-proof systems.
