## About the role

We're hiring our first Head of Platform to lead the team building Ironsite's platform, the product surface that turns our data into the intelligence construction teams act on every day.

## What they're looking for

- Deep hands-on technical expertise across the modern web stack (React/TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS). You can read, review, and write production code, and you still do. Weekly, at minimum
- Strong track record of shipping systems that scaled by orders of magnitude in throughput, users, or data volume, and doing so without over-engineering early or accumulating dead architectural weight late
- Demonstrated leadership at scale: you've hired, mentored, and managed engineering teams of at least 10 to 30 people, including managers who reported to you
- Systems thinking that spans the full stack and cross-team integration. You care as much about the seams between systems and the seams between teams
- Real ability to partner with founders and other functional leaders. You've worked directly with technical founders before, held your ground, and made them and their companies better
- A background in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical field, or the equivalent hands-on experience
