Head of Engineering

At Jobscan, we’re passionate about empowering job seekers to land more interviews with AI technology. We have helped millions of job seekers get more interviews in 100+ countries. Jobscan’s platform benefits job seekers, employers, universities, and communities. We're a fast-growing remote startup. We are completely customer-funded without VC investments, profitable, and growing exponentially. Without investor pressure, we can be even more customer-focused. You get the stability you need while being a part of an accelerating startup.

We’re looking for a Head of Engineering who leads at a high level and also thrives on  getting hands-on when needed.

Be a true partner with a seat at the table for strategic product and business decisions. This role isn’t just about managing engineers—it’s about building and running a world-class engineering organization that can consistently deliver high velocity business value. You’ll work closely with the CEO to shape the future of our product, platform, and business. 

You should be comfortable switching between strategic leadership and tactical execution, making smart trade-offs to scale the team and technology effectively.

• Build and run a world-class engineering organization that consistently delivers high velocity business value
• Develop cutting-edge AI solutions to revolutionize the job search process for both candidates and recruiters 
• Have a seat at the table for critical Product and Business Strategy
• Align engineering strategy with company goals to fuel Jobscan’s growth.
• Collaborate cross-functionally to drive business outcomes—not just code.
• Lead by example as a hands-on technical expert and mentor.
• Scale a high-performing, remote engineering team and culture.
• Ensure reliable, high-quality product delivery while managing tech debt
• Experience executing in a fast-moving tech startup environment is a must

• Have led engineering teams through rapid growth at a startup (2 → 15+ engineers).
• Balance strategic leadership with hands-on technical depth.
• Bring 10+ years building customer-facing web apps and deep cloud (AWS) expertise.
• Thrive in fast-paced environments and communicate clearly across functions.
• Are excited by AI, and familiar with modern stacks like PHP/Laravel, Vue, or Python

If you’re an engineering leader who loves to both strategize and build, thrive in fast-moving, high-impact environments, and want to shape the future of job search tools, we’d love to hear from you!
