Head of Engineering (Findies)

About Findies

Findies is a network of personal digital experts that help women discover products that truly fit their lifestyle — in fashion, beauty, wellness, home and garden, and more.

Our team is small, hands-on, fast-moving, and AI-first. We’re looking for ambitious professionals who want real ownership and the opportunity to shape and build the business.

As we grow within the $1.19 trillion e-commerce industry, your ability to deliver results and move fast will be essential to our success.

About the role

We’re looking for a Head of Engineering to build Findies’ AI-native engineering function. You were a strong engineer who moved into leadership — you will set the architecture and technical direction for our agent-driven systems, make the hard technical calls, and hire and grow the team as engineering scales from a few ICs into a larger org. You stay technically current enough to evaluate and direct cutting-edge agent work.

What you’ll be doing

• Own engineering architecture and technical direction for Findies’ AI-native stack — the agent-driven systems that run core business processes.
• Hire, build, and grow the engineering team: set standards and raise the bar as the team scales.
• Make the hard technical calls and review critical architecture; stay current enough to direct cutting-edge agent / LLMs work.
• Establish engineering standards — code review, deployment, QA / agent-success-rate tracking — making quality repeatable.
• Partner with the Product and Marketing Teams and the CEO to translate business goals into scalable, agent-driven systems.

What you’ll need

• Strong engineering background — you were an excellent backend / fullstack engineer before moving into leadership.
• Proven engineering leadership — you’ve built and scaled engineering teams, hired A-players, set standards, and addressed underperformance.
• Real, current depth in AI-native systems — agent frameworks, LLM-driven workflows in production, hands-on familiarity with LLM tools.
• Track record of systems delivered end-to-end (idea → production) with high ownership.
• Builder mindset who operates without fully-defined requirements.
• Strong communication and the ability to partner with the CEO and non-technical stakeholders.
• Upper-Intermediate English or higher.
