About the Role

As Head of Engineering at iForAI, you'll lead our rapidly growing engineering team and take complete ownership of delivery from requirements to production. You'll be accountable for maintaining our breakneck velocity while shipping high-quality, production-ready code that developers can immediately use with confidence.

You'll drive the engineering team to simplify complex challenges across a diverse surface area while maintaining cohesion across our open-source libraries and enterprise platform. You'll build the organizational infrastructure that enables every engineer to work on the highest-impact tasks every day—turning strategic priorities into concrete, shippable increments.

This is a hands-on leadership role requiring both technical depth and management excellence. You'll need to understand our codebase well enough to make critical architectural decisions while also building the processes that allow the team to scale efficiently. Your success will be measured by your ability to maximize impact velocity—shipping done-done, production-quality features faster than competitors in a rapidly evolving space.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead a team of 6-10 engineers (growing) with a focus on maximizing velocity and impact
  • Build the organizational infrastructure that enables engineers to consistently work on highest-value tasks
  • Maintain a deep enough technical understanding to guide architectural decisions and quality standards
  • Implement lightweight but effective processes for planning, tracking, and shipping high-quality code
  • Directly manage engineering leads and create a culture of accountability and excellence
  • Drive technical simplification across a complex surface area with many integration points
  • Balance new feature development with technical debt, testing, and infrastructure improvements
  • Hire and develop A-level engineering talent across frontend, backend, and infrastructure roles
  • Ensure we build for both immediate impact and long-term extensibility
  • Remove obstacles and create the conditions for engineers to do their best work

Our main requirements are:

  • 5+ years of engineering management experience, including direct people management
  • Deep expertise with TypeScript and modern web infrastructure
  • Proven track record building developer tools, SDKs, or developer-facing products
  • Experience simplifying complex technical domains through careful abstraction and API design
  • Demonstrated ability to maintain rapid delivery velocity while ensuring quality and stability
  • History of successfully hiring and retaining engineering talent
  • Strong technical judgment and ability to guide architectural decisions
  • Track record of shipping products with tight deadlines in fast-moving markets
  • Excellence in cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management
  • Ability to balance technical debt with feature development

Nice-to-have

  • Prior experience with AI/ML infrastructure or LLM integration
  • Background in startups at a similar stage (seed to Series A)
  • Cloud infrastructure and SaaS platform development experience
  • Experience integrating with multiple third-party systems and platforms
  • Track record of scaling engineering teams from <10 to 20+ engineers
  • Prior startup exit experience
