Qualifications

As the most senior engineering role at StrideUp, you will report directly to the CEO and be responsible for defining the technical direction of our platform, crucial for our upcoming growth phase. Your role will involve advocating for the intelligent use of technology—like AI and automation—to enhance product quality and development speed. We believe that scaling our engineering capabilities is about leveraging technology smarter rather than merely increasing headcount. You will be the go-to expert for what’s feasible and how we can achieve it. This position is not solely strategic; you will actively participate when necessary—whether that involves architecture, code reviews, or critical deliveries. You should be ready to engage hands-on without needing to be prompted. Collaboration with the Product Manager will be key, and you will communicate confidently with the CEO, ExCo, and investors, grounding technical decisions in a commercial context. Your responsibilities will also encompass workplace technology, IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, and information security, which require the same strategic oversight as engineering. There is a clear progression path to Head of Engineering as we scale. This position offers significant influence and ample growth opportunities.
