Own the product architecture of CMX — routing algorithms, real-time dispatch, fleet management, marketplace, and the AI layer underneath it all
Stay hands-on enough to earn credibility with a senior team — you can read system designs, hold the line on quality, and if needed, roll up your sleeves to write/debug code
Hire, develop, and retain exceptional engineers. The team is small but mighty today and expanding quickly
Instill strong engineering practices: code review, incident response, and delivery cadence. Build a culture of execution with urgency and ownership
Run engineering operating cadences (sprint reviews, roadmap planning) that give leadership an honest view of progress and risk
Embed AI capabilities directly into how CMX is built — real-time dispatch, predictive exceptions, AI-optimized navigation
Evaluate and adopt new tools. If a new model, framework, or architecture improves outcomes, you move on it

10+ years of software engineering experience
5+ years in an engineering leadership role
Track record building and scaling complex, multi-component platforms
Demonstrated ability to hire and grow senior engineering teams at a scaling company
Hands-on experience with AI integration in production systems
Excellent written and verbal communication — deep with engineers, clear with executives
Bonus points for a background in mobility, logistics, marketplaces, or other physical-plus-software platforms, or experience with enterprise SaaS sold into the public sector or regulated industries.
