Engineering Lead
Founding engineer. End-to-end ownership of the platform.
We're not looking for a figurehead CTO. We want someone who writes the code that runs the Milan beta, designs the architecture for national scale, and builds the technical team around it. Reports directly to the founder.
- Define the platform architecture, from cadastral ingestion to the analysis UI
- Hire and train the first 3–5 engineers over the next 18 months
- Keep the beta's shipping pace while scaling to 8 cities
- Decide the make-vs-buy trade-off on every critical component
- 7+ years of software engineering on production products
- Hands-on experience with geospatial data, ETL or data-intensive systems
- Already led a technical team or been the founding engineer of a startup
- A stack close to ours: Python, Node/TypeScript, relational databases, cloud
