## Description

We build many products at once with small teams of humans + AI coding agents. You run that engine , you lead the product managers, orchestrate the agent fleets, set the technical bar, and still ship code yourself.

As the Founding Director of Engineering, you will:

- Lead the product managers / builder-leads, setting direction, unblocking, reviewing, and raising their tempo and quality

- Orchestrate humans + AI agents, breaking product bets into work for people and for agent fleets

- Stay hands-on, architecting and writing code, especially for the hardest plumbing, risky spikes, and reference implementations

- Own the portfolio's delivery, making build-vs-buy-vs-agent calls and architecture decisions

- Set the standards for safe shipping at speed, including CI, review, evals, security, and logging conventions

Requirements:

- You're a player-coach, leading people and shipping code

- You're an agentic-engineering native, building with AI at the systems level

- You get leverage through others, having led engineers and/or product managers

- You've shipped products fast, ideally founding or leading 0→1 products

- You see the whole board, reasoning about the business and the user

- You're high-agency, making sensible calls and documenting assumptions

Benefits:

- Top-of-market pay, roughly $15,000–$40,000 / month USD

- No budget cap for tokens, best-in-class tooling, and frontier models

- A brilliant CTO to build alongside

- Frontier work, not maintenance

- No politics, no process theater

Compensation:

- Roughly $15,000–$40,000 / month USD, paid monthly and on time

Logistics:

- Remote, anywhere with enough daily overlap to lead the team

- Flexible exclusivity, growing into primary over time

How to apply:

- Send a Loom recording showing what you've built and how you lead

- Complete a studio teardown exercise

- Share one line on what's new in AI/agents you're using
