Job Title

Field CTO (Founding, Sydney)

Salary

Global Top-tier cash compensation plus a next-gen unicorn founding-member stock option package

Location

Sydney

Company Description In just 13 months since founding, the company hit a $2B valuation and raised $286M in total funding. Its B2B customer-service AI agent platform is already deployed across enterprises in 30+ countries.

Our client is now looking for the first member to build the Asia market from zero. Working directly with the European HQ's C-level, you'll design and build an entire country's business from the ground up — the closest thing to founding, with the leadership mandate to match.

What You'll Do

- Lead the technical side of sales: join early-stage conversations, present demos, and guide architecture and security discussions.
- Act as hands-on engineering lead — shipping code, building integrations, and setting high quality standards.
- Build and lead a high-performing technical team across engineering, integration, and pre-sales — effectively laying the technical foundation of the Australia entity yourself.
- Drive customer integrations end to end, from scoping to deployment of AI agents,



ensuring production accuracy.
- Gather customer feedback, localize the product, and represent regional needs directly to the global Product team.
- Serve as the local technical point of contact, building partnerships and handling escalations.

Who You Are

- 7–8+ years of hands-on software engineering experience — you've built things that actually shipped.
- Proven track record in pre-sales, solution architecture, or complex technical implementations.
- Customer-facing background in roles like Field CTO, Solutions Architect, or Deployed Engineer — you speak both tech and business fluently.
- Strong leadership DNA, ideally with experience at Director, VP, or Founder level.
- Comfortable operating independently in a zero-to-one environment — building the plan, the team, and the system from scratch.
- Open to Singapore Citizens and PRs only.
- Bonus: you've thrived in a fast-moving startup where speed and ownership matter more than titles.

Perks & Advantages

- Global Top-tier compensation plus a next-gen unicorn founding-member equity package.
- Global stage: Singapore-based, with regular exchange with the European global HQ and direct collaboration with C-level.
- Flexible remote work and world-class wellness benefits.
- A rare scale-up experience: opening an entire market at the frontier of enterprise AI adoption.
