Job Description

CTO/VP Engineering – Stealth Startup Type: Full-time, 4.5 days a week, Night Shift (Working in US / PST hours) Compensation: $40,000-$100,000+ USD This VC-backed stealth startup turns founders’ voices into visibility. We help executives grow influence by transforming their insights into high-quality content — distributed across LinkedIn, blogs, newsletters, podcasts, and press. We’re building the AI engine that powers modern content distribution — replacing the bloated agency model with software and agents. Founded by Zain Jaffer (Vungle – $780M exit), this new company is growing fast, and backed by real revenue and early traction. Role Overview We’re hiring a hands-on Engineering Leader to drive the next phase of our platform. You’ll lead and mentor a growing team (currently 4 engineers, scaling to 10-20+), set technical direction, and own systems that combine custom LLM pipelines, automation workflows, and product UI/UX. You’ll report directly to the CEO and play a critical role in building product, team, and culture. We’re looking for someone who thrives in early-stage chaos and knows how to ship with quality and speed. Responsibilities Lead and grow an engineering team (currently 4, scaling up to 10) Own system architecture, infrastructure, and reliability Design and evolve LLM workflows (e.g. RAG, embeddings, prompt chaining) Guide development of automation layers, backend APIs, and internal tools Set and enforce technical standards, performance, and clean abstractions Work cross-functionally with product, content, and design teams Stay hands-on in core systems — especially in the early stage Recruit, onboard, and mentor new engineers Requirements 10+ years of backend or full-stack engineering experience 5+ years in a technical leadership or mentorship role Very strong GenAI Experience Strong backend skills (Python preferred; FastAPI, Django or similar) Excellent written and spoken English Prior experience at fast-moving product companies (no service/agency roles) CS Degree from IIT, IIIT, NIT, BITS, DTU, NSUT, or equivalent real-world accomplishments Schedule: TBD but currently 9AM - 6PM PST (will switch to earlier time later). Friday is half day. Show more Show less
