Head of Software Engineering

Build. Lead. Scale. Make real environmental impact.

We’re partnering with a remote-first, early-stage Climate Tech startup building an advanced analytics and observability platform designed to make the digital supply chain cleaner, faster, and more cost-efficient.

They're looking for a hands-on Head of Engineering to take ownership of technical delivery and help scale both the platform and the team.

This is a true player-coach role; ideal for someone who loves shaping strategy but is equally happy rolling up their sleeves.

The role:

You’ll work closely with the CTO to translate product vision into robust, scalable B2B SaaS, while embedding best-in-class engineering practices.

• Own end-to-end engineering delivery
• Lead, mentor and grow a high-performing remote team
• Drive CI/CD, testing and observability standards
• Make pragmatic architecture decisions for scale
• Ensure platform reliability and performance
• Support hiring as the team grows

We’re open-minded on background, but you’ll likely bring:

• 7+ years in software engineering
• 2 years experience in a technical leadership role
• Strong full-stack capability
• Expertise in at least one backend language;
  Python, Go, Node.js
• Cloud-native experience;
  AWS, GCP or Azure
• Product-centric mindset
• Comfortable in fast-moving startup environments
• People-first leadership style
• Experience with remote/distributed teams

B2B SaaS, media/streaming, or Clean Tech exposure.

• Fully remote (GMT ±2)
• 33 days holiday
• Flexible 35-hour week
• Pension
• Quarterly offsites
• Full home office setup (including company macbook)

You’ll be joining at a pivotal growth moment, with real ownership, real influence, and the chance to build technology that meaningfully reduces the environmental impact of digital infrastructure.
