We’re hiring a Founding Engineer / Platform Architect/CTO for our client (Code Name: SYNC), a next-generation AI platform company being launched with a bold ambition: to build the System of Context for Customer Experience (CX).
This is a founding, high-leverage role for deeply experienced engineers who have built and scaled complex platforms and now want to shape an entire category—not just another product.
You will be part of the initial technical leadership, defining the architecture, platform boundaries, and engineering principles for an AI-native intelligence fabric that unifies AI agents, human agents, CRMs, CCaaS platforms, and enterprise workflows in real time.
The CX ecosystem is evolving rapidly — AI agents, human agents, CRMs, CCaaS platforms, data lakes, and enterprise workflows are all becoming more capable… and more fragmented.
Despite massive investment, enterprises still lack a true System of Context — a unifying intelligence layer that can:
● Interpret what’s happening across systems in real time
● Provide shared situational awareness to AI and human agents
● Orchestrate actions across tools without ripping and replacing core infrastructure
SYNC is being built as that AI-native intelligence and context layer — enabling enterprises to operate with real-time awareness across complex, heterogeneous environments.
The company is backed by a strategic partnership involving global investment firms and a CX industry leader, with a clear mandate to scale through strategic acquisitions and deep technology integration across the CX ecosystem.
● This is a founding-era role with architectural and organizational influence
● You will define the platform’s core abstractions, data flows, and intelligence model
● You will help integrate acquired technologies into a unified platform vision
● You will shape how AI agents and human agents collaborate inside enterprises
● You will work directly with senior leadership on long-term technology strategy
This role is ideal for senior technologists who want ownership, influence, and legacy-level impact.
● Architect the core System of Context / Intelligence Fabric
● Define how real-time signals, events, and state propagate across systems
● Design for scale, extensibility, resilience, and acquisition-driven growth AI-Native Systems
● Enable orchestration between AI agents and human workflows
● Support real-time reasoning, feedback loops, and decision intelligence
● Collaborate on platform primitives that power AI-driven experiences Enterprise Integration & Interoperability
● Design deep integrations with CCaaS, CRM, data platforms, and enterprise systems
● Enable adoption without disrupting existing enterprise infrastructure
● Build APIs, connectors, and abstraction layers for partners and integrations Founding Technical Leadership
● Act as a technical thought partner to founders and executive leadership
● Establish early engineering standards, principles, and culture
● Mentor senior engineers and help scale the engineering organization over time
● 12–20 years of experience building large-scale, distributed, enterprise-grade systems
● Proven track record in platform architecture, systems design, or backend engineering
● Deep understanding of real-time systems, event-driven architectures, and APIs
● Experience designing platforms meant to operate across multiple enterprise systems
● Exposure to AI-enabled platforms, orchestration layers, or intelligence systems
● Comfort operating in ambiguity, shaping problems from first principles
● Founder-level ownership mindset: high agency, low ego, long-term thinking
This role will drive technology choices, not inherit them. Familiarity with modern cloud platforms, distributed systems, streaming, and orchestration frameworks is expected.
● Prior experience in CX, CCaaS, CRM, or enterprise workflow platforms
● Experience working in acquisition-led or platform consolidation environments
● Exposure to AI agents, LLM orchestration, or context-aware systems
● Startup, scale-up, or founding-team experience
● Strong product intuition alongside deep technical judgment
● Becoming part of a category-defining platform from inception
● Working closely with industry leaders and global investors
● Influencing not just product direction, but ecosystem evolution
● Building a career narrative around founding impact and long-term leverage
If you’ve already built platforms at scale and are now looking to define what comes next, this is that opportunity.
