## About the role

$200B+ in assets and $90B in money movement run on infrastructure that about 50 engineers and a growing number of agents build on top of. We're hiring a Head of Engineering, Foundations to lead the team that owns it. This role reports directly to the CEO and has company-level scope.

## What they're looking for

- 12+ years in engineering, including 5+ leading teams
- A builder who leads. You write clean, well-tested code and have designed and shipped systems end to end, and you want to keep doing that while growing a team
- Leverage through senior engineers. You've developed staff and principal ICs who make other teams better
- Systems judgment. You've operated consequential infrastructure before. Kubernetes, AWS, and infrastructure-as-code experience helps, but judgment matters more than familiarity with our exact stack
- Developer experience as a product. You design infrastructure for the engineers using it rather than just operating it
- You author the standard. You have a clear point of view on what good infrastructure looks like and set it rather than inheriting it
