## About the role

Reflex is hiring a Head of Engineering to own the technical strategy, delivery execution, and operational maturity required to scale our platform for the next stage of growth. This is a foundational builder role, not a caretaker position. You will partner directly with the Founder/CEO, and lead an existing engineering team of approximately 5-8 engineers. There is no CTO layer today, as such this is a high-visibility role, including Board/Investor exposure.
