Invest in us and we’ll invest in you!. Job DescriptionVersion 1 already has 98% AI adoption across the business, live agentic deployment models, and a use-case governance framework that routes work between self-service AI and CoE-driven transformation based on complexity. Most organisations are still trying to get pilots into production. We've done that. The Head of AI Centre of Excellence is the person who takes that foundation and pushes it further: scaling agentic workflows from pilots into the core of how Version 1 delivers, and building the people and skills strategy that keeps 4,300+ staff ahead of the curve as AI-native working becomes the norm, not the exception. Reporting to the Director of AI, this individual leads an established CoE team with budget authority, and works through influence across the wider organisation to embed AI-native ways of working in our internal systems, delivery processes and people. The role is weighted towards internal transformation (roughly 80%), with a smaller but high-profile external element: representing Version 1's own transformation story through thought leadership and conference platforms, and shaping the messaging that feeds into board-level AI strategy via the Director of AI. Key Responsibilities Scale Agentic Workflows into Core Delivery Move agentic AI from pilots and self-service use cases into embedded, transformational change across core delivery functions. Own the direction and roadmap for Version 1's internal AI tooling and applications, ensuring our own use of AI reflects the standard we sell to customers. Evolve the use-case governance model that decides what stays self-service and what warrants CoE-led transformation. Lead and Grow the AI Centre of Excellence Lead the established AI CoE team, with budget authority, setting priorities, standards and ways of working for the function. Build the CoE's capability and remit as internal demand for AI-led transformation grows. Drive Change Through Influence Apply technology consulting skills to bring different functions and leaders along the transformation journey, without direct authority over every team involved. Work closely with the exec team to secure sponsorship, remove blockers and keep internal transformation aligned to commercial priorities. Act as the internal change agent for agentic and AI-native working, building coalitions across service lines and functions. Shape People Strategy for an AI-Native Organisation Partner with the People function to define the enablement and continuous development our staff need as AI changes how work gets done. Shape the direction and strategy for building an AI-native organisation, including skills, career pathways and ways of working.

The Asset Owners product team builds and evolves Clearwater Analytics' solutions for asset owners — including pension funds, corporations, REITs, foundations, and other institutional investors managing their own portfolios. We're looking for a Market Product Leader to own Clearwater's point of view, product direction, and growth plan for Corporate Treasury in North America. Corporate Treasury is Clearwater's priority asset owner market and the one where the strategy is furthest along; this role owns the EMEA cut of it. That means the corporate treasurer's operating reality across the region's markets, the bank and market infrastructure they depend on, the regulatory, accounting, and disclosure regimes they answer to, and the incumbent treasury systems and spreadsheet workflows we displace. This role is accountable for keeping the market analysis current, converting it into a funded roadmap and a go-to-market playbook, and partnering with the North America Corporate Treasury Market Product Leader so Clearwater runs one global product direction with regional plans beneath it. This role partners closely with R&D/Engineering, GTM/Sales, Marketing, Client Services, and Finance, and sits alongside the Market Product Leaders for Pensions, REITs, and Endowments, Funds & Trusts. This role owns the commercial outcome for EMEA Corporate Treasury and is measured on ACV growth, win rate, and retention in the market. • Maintain and extend the EMEA Corporate Treasury market analysis, built country by country, — total addressable market, serviceable addressable market, and the share Clearwater has already captured — with every number sourced and the basis for each estimate stated., • Segment the market by buying behavior and by the treasury operating model actually in place, from large multinational treasuries running full treasury management systems and in-house banks, through mid-market treasuries running bank portals and spreadsheets, to corporates whose investment portfolio is outsourced, and account for differences in market maturity, regulation, and buying behavior across countries., • Tighten the serviceable market definition so that proven fit, not theoretical fit, determines what counts as addressable., • Score each segment on attractiveness and on Clearwater's right to win, and make an explicit call to prioritize, hold, or deprioritize., • Keep the point of view current as a living document, and be clear at all times about what is validated, what is estimated, and what is still open., • Own the requirements that define this market, including operating cash and liquidity management, multi-bank, multi-currency, and multi-entity connectivity and balance reporting, cash pooling and in-house banking, cash positioning and forecasting, short-term investment portfolios, and debt and credit facility servicing., • Own the accounting and disclosure requirements corporate treasury answers to, including IFRS 9 investment classification and IFRS 7 disclosure, IFRS 9 hedge accounting (with US GAAP and ASC 815 where clients report under it), local GAAP variations, counterparty and concentration reporting, and the audit evidence treasury is asked to produce., • Own the requirements around investment policy compliance, the controls and approvals corporate treasury operates under, and the regional regulatory obligations that touch treasury, including EMIR reporting, money market fund regulation, and data residency and privacy requirements., • Work with Engineering on what has to be true in the platform to serve these workflows natively rather than through client‑specific development., • Translate the capability gaps identified in the point of view into a prioritized, sequenced roadmap, and hold the sequencing discipline as capability lands in stages., • Partner with R&D/Engineering leads to size the work, confirm capacity, and agree sequencing before commitments are made externally., • Make and defend build, buy, or partner recommendations, including the business case behind each, and including where a partnership gets to market faster than a build., • Identify capability bets that serve Corporate Treasury and one or more other asset owner markets, and work with peer Market Product Leaders so those are built once., • Represent client and market context in solutioning discussions so trade-offs are made with full information., • Define the ideal client profile and the whitespace target list, and work with Sales to turn it into named‑account coverage., • Own positioning, messaging, and the competitive narrative for the market, including the displacement case against incumbent treasury management systems and against spreadsheet and bank‑portal workflows., • Handle competitive relationships that are not clean — where a competitor is also a partner, an integration point, or a live data source for shared clients — with a position that holds up in front of both clients and internal stakeholders., • Partner with Finance and Sales on pricing and packaging for the market, and on the commercial construct for new capabilities., • Build enablement for Sales and Client Services, and support strategic pursuits directly as the market expert., • Run win/loss analysis and feed what it says back into the roadmap and the positioning., • Build direct relationships with corporate treasurers, assistant treasurers, treasury operations leaders, and the banks, consultants, treasury associations, and advisors who influence their technology decisions across the region., • Represent Clearwater at industry events and in analyst conversations, and bring back a structured read on what the market is asking for., • Maintain a working view of competitors, adjacent providers, and the systems Clearwater most often displaces or sits beside., • Own the health of the installed EMEA Corporate Treasury base — satisfaction, retention, and concession pressure — and treat an unhealthy base as a gate on further penetration until it is remediated., • Partner with Client Services and the client delight function to get recurring pain points scoped and fixed rather than managed around., • Report market performance to leadership on a regular cadence, including where the plan is off track and what is being done about it., • 12+ years in product management, market strategy, or commercial leadership in treasury technology, transaction banking, or investment technology., • Deep working knowledge of European and wider EMEA corporate treasury — cash and liquidity management, multi-bank and cross‑border connectivity (including SWIFT and ISO 20022), short‑term investment, debt and capital markets activity, and the reporting treasury owes to finance, audit, and regulators., • Familiarity with the treasury management system landscape and with the practical realities of displacing an incumbent system., • Demonstrated ownership of a market, segment, or product line, with accountability for revenue growth rather than for delivery alone., • Strong quantitative instincts. Comfortable building and defending market sizing, segmentation, and penetration analysis from primary data, and rigorous about sourcing., • Comfortable engaging directly with engineers on technical scope, architecture trade‑offs, and sequencing., • Excellent written and verbal communication, with a track record of getting senior stakeholders to a decision., • Experience in fintech, SaaS, or investment management technology preferred., • Bachelor's degree required; MBA, CTP, ACT qualification, CFA, or relevant advanced degree a plus. Fluency in English required; additional European languages a plus. Summer Kisner, Head of Asset Owners Product None currently - this is an individual contributor role.

We’re looking for a curious, rigorous, problem-hungry platform engineer (who codes!) to carry the ball as we bring Ashby to the big leagues. Ashby builds software that lets talent teams build an efficient, delightful, respectful hiring process. Similarly, you’re an engineer who wants to build a “paved road” that excellent engineering teams can safely take to the moon and back. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, over 2500 customers, very low churn, and many years of runway. You probably have a good idea as to why we’re hiring for this role. We’ve listed this role twice: as a Platform Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer – our team does both, and we are open to candidates who lean towards one or the other. Hi I’m Colin, Head of EMEA Engineering. I’ve spent a number of years leading engineering teams in startups, and that has always included being close to infrastructure teams - no matter what name they’ve worn (SRE, infrastructure, platform, etc). I’ve got my hands dirty building the initial infrastructure for startups and know the value a talented infrastructure engineer brings. The rigour, the discipline, the peace and quiet when everything just hums along. Our infrastructure is in a good place for now. Nothing is static. Ashby continues to grow rapidly, putting strain on our existing infrastructure. We’re always looking to give our customers more powerful hiring software, and building new product features often requires new pieces of infrastructure. Having herded plenty of snowflakeservers in the past, I’ve learned there’s a better way. I place a lot of value on infrastructure-as-code. As a Platform Engineer at Ashby, you’ll get to dive into scaling problems, add new capabilities to our platform, and think about how our entire team interacts with infrastructure. All our own engineers own their projects end-to-end and ship with minimal oversight. We don’t put roadblocks to ensure security when common sense will do and we don’t build processes like change management boards around the lowest common denominator. But with great power comes great responsibility: we handle personal and confidential data about some of the biggest decisions we ever make at work. As we grow, more and bigger customers rely on us to be reliable and secure and how we operate internally will need to evolve. We’re at an inflection point where our ability to scale and deliver a seamless experience has a make-or-break impact – we have some of the fastest growing companies using our platform every day to hire hundreds of people per month. We need someone like you to make good decisions, debug thorny issues, and build us a future-proof platform that can withstand this scale. Our small but mighty infrastructure team has set up a secure and simple environment (we don’t believe in spinning up a new service unless necessary!) for our growing product team to build in. That’s where you come in: you, too, will own projects end-to-end and have an impact on core parts of the Ashby developer and user experience. For instance, you could work on: • Optimize our homegrown ultra-dynamic recruiting DSL-to-SQL compiler, and create tools to help developers do so, • Create automated guardrails for the security and privacy of our customer data, • Help our developers ship features fast through canary deploys, gradual rollouts and feature flags, while keeping complexity manageable and reducing downtime, • Work with the business and the engineering team to define SLOs and implement the corresponding SLIs, • Ensure all communication with external services supports retries and circuit-breakers, • Implement the infrastructure to support an event-driven architecture and data warehouse We’re looking for someone who can build systems that an engineer would like to work with: mature and boring but open-minded and approachable. We have to balance reliability with flexibility. Software and its availability are now mission critical to almost every working professional. To be in an SRE in today’s world, you have to be extremely comfortable evaluating risk, those you take and those others take. • You never stop. You get weirdly obsessed about a problem that doesn’t yet make sense, turn it every which way in your head until the explanation dawns. You’ll search every rock, inventory every clue, hunt every mismatch. We do that, too – together we’ll be armed with state-of-the-art monitoring tools and an impressive amount of data, and join you in the adventure., • You don’t take shortcuts. You’re speaking up for the future user, the edge case, the doomsday design. You know product engineers want to build it with you, and see them as allies, where you give them the power and knowledge to access greater things., • You’re someone who cares about what you do and the team you do it with, and want to work with others who do as well. You’ll be on interview panels choosing your next colleagues, and you’ll take that seriously. You only want to work with people who make you better, and want to make you better., • You’ve built infrastructure at a slightly later stage than Ashby is at – you know how to deal with millions of data points, have seen great (or not great) infrastructure make or break customer experience, and have automated everything from provisioning to monitoring and release process., • You’re a Swiss army knife (all nationalities welcome). You’ll get every hard problem the company faces. You’ll get to do infrastructure updates, security enforcements, database optimization, Kubernetes debugging, and digging through Typescript traces figuring out what doesn’t work. All that makes for a pretty specific kind of role, and the job isn’t to everyone’s tastes! You should not apply if: • You don’t want to make your own decisions on what is the best paved road to build for Ashby, and expect a lead or manager to make the final call on what that is. Our leads (and managers) give ample commentary and feedback on technical decisions and how they’re made, but you ship what you want to build and are accountable for it., • You hate SQL. We have a lot of features built around making the best out of data, and our platform engineers also sometimes dive into a gnarly report or advise engineers on a more performant data model to use., • You don’t want to code. Our SREs are some of our best software engineers and they are just as responsible for the application as the other engineering teams – albeit at a platform level. Reviewing code and submitting code changes will be part of your day to day., • Your primary mode of communicating best practices to engineers is live meetings. We’re a very async culture and written communication (and code) is how changes get made. As an Ashby SRE, you will need to share new tooling and best practices with engineers faster than your next meeting opportunity will take you., • You’ve never delivered a project, on your own, without someone prodding you for updates. We have no project or delivery managers to fill your calendar with busy work, but the flip side is you have to do your project management, seek the help you need to get unstuck and cut scope when it’s worthwhile. I’m sharing our tech stack with the caveat that we don’t require previous experience in it: TypeScript (frontend & backend), Node.js, React, Apollo GraphQL, Postgres, Redis. We use Datadog and Sentry on 100% cloud-based (AWS) infra. We take developer experience and reliability seriously: all engineers are on call in a follow-the-sun model, and everyone contributes to developer tooling. As engineers, we are used to tooling that makes us better at what we do. When we started Ashby, we saw the opposite with Talent Acquisition software. Recruiting teams were leveling up how they did their work, but instead of software meeting this new standard, it held them back. Scheduling a final round is an excellent example. Recruiting teams wanted to schedule candidates faster, track interviewer preparation and quality, and do it with half the headcount. A recruiter needed to manually collect availability from the candidate, identify qualified interviewers, perform “Calendar Tetris” to find who is available to interview the candidate, schedule on the earliest date possible, and make any last‑minute adjustments as availability changed. They must do this while considering the interview load on each individual and whether interviewers need to be trained and shadowing others. As hiring managers, we know TA is a critical function, and as engineers, we know software can do better. So, we built and continue to build Ashby to give TA teams the highest standard of tooling. Software that’s intelligent and powerful. Software that provides insights into where they’re failing and automates or simplifies many of the tasks they’re underwater with. We want other functions and departments to be jealous of what TA teams can do with Ashby, and today they often are! Our Engineering Culture Is Motivated By Abhik And Benji’s (our Co‑founders) Belief That a Small Talented Team, Given The Right Environment, Can Build High-quality Software Fast (and Work Regular Hours!). We Do It Through • Minimal process with ownership over decisions normally made by product and design, • Natural collaboration and deliberate communication, • Investing in tools and abstractions that give us leverage, • Putting effort into building a diverse team The best engineers we’ve worked with delivered reliably magical outcomes. They took customer problems and relentlessly drove them to solutions that were not only successful but often brilliant and creative. While they did this with minimal oversight, stakeholders were never in the dark as to what was going on, and no setback was a surprise. Traditional product‑development processes aren’t meant for the best engineers. Their purpose is to create consistent outcomes regardless of the engineer’s skill. But, consistency comes at the expense of an engineer’s time and freedom—both ingredients necessary to generate those magical outcomes. As a result, process stifles the best engineers and doesn’t give others the opportunity to practice the behaviors that made the best engineers the best. At Ashby, we want to build an environment that encourages every engineer to be their best. So, at Ashby, every Engineer runs their project. Product Managers (and Designers) build strategy, do customer research, and hand off problem briefs to Engineers. Engineers take on the rest: they research the problem, write product specs, build wireframes, and implement their solution end‑to‑end. We rely on engineers, not process, to push information outward to the relevant folks (e.g., Product Managers) and pull folks in to help (e.g., Designers, Infra). It’s a new level of ownership for many engineers, but we’d rather an engineer fail a bit and coach up their skills than use process as a crutch. Not everyone succeeds in our culture, but those who do thrive. Our engineering team consists of lifelong learners who are talented but also humble and kind. These attributes create an environment where collaboration happens naturally. We combine this with research, prototyping, and written proposals to see around corners and get feedback from the team across time zones. Focus time is something that we hold sacred, and, with thoughtful and deliberate communication, engineers are in less than 2h meetings per week. We also meet in person at least twice a year, once as a department and once as a company. You also have a small budget to meet up with folks in your city/region. We Built Ashby With The Quality, Breadth, And Depth That Many Customers Would Expect From Much Larger Teams Over Larger Time Scales. We’ve Done This Through Investment In • Great developer tooling. Our CI/CD takes about 10 minutes, and we deploy at least 15x a day. A debugger that works out of the box. Everyone on the team has contributed to our developer experience., • Building blocks to create powerful and customizable products fast. At the core of Ashby is a set of common components (analytics modeling and query language, policy engine, workflow engine, design system) that we constantly improve. Each improvement to a common component cascades throughout our app., • AI-powered tooling. We think of AI as a way to automate the mundane parts of building and maintaining high-quality software. We use a combination of third‑party and internally built tools that, for instance, auto‑triage customer issues, suggest fixes, prototype ideas, generate production‑ready code, and conduct code reviews. Engineers have an unlimited token budget (but are not measured on it)., • Competitive salary and equity., • 10-year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn’t feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby —do it when you feel financially comfortable., • Unlimited PTO, and we will encourage you to take it., • A minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave, covered by Ashby. For folks outside the US, it may be longer to be in line with regional requirements., • Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive!, • $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval., • If you’re in the US, we offer top‑tier health insurance for you and your dependents, with 100% of premiums covered by Ashby. In other countries, we provide high‑quality supplemental health insurance for you and your dependents, also fully covered by us. Ashby’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply. Ashby provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities. Compensation Range: £138K - £224K #J-18808-Ljbffr

Help Shape How Scottish Water Performs, Improves and Delivers for the Future Scottish Water is embarking on one of the most ambitious transformation and efficiency programmes in its history. We're looking for an exceptional Operational Excellence leader to define and embed the systems, standards and culture that will help us deliver our SR27 ambitions, improve performance at scale and realise tens of millions of pounds of efficiency opportunities. This isn't a traditional continuous improvement role. This is an opportunity to shape how a national organisation manages performance, solves problems, delivers change and continuously improves. You'll work across operational, customer, asset and corporate functions, influencing leaders at every level and building the capability needed to sustain improvement long after individual projects have finished. As Operational Excellence Manager, you'll lead Scottish Water's enterprise approach to operational excellence, performance management and continuous improvement. Reporting to the Head of Transformation, you'll be responsible for developing and embedding a single operational management and improvement system across the organisation. You'll establish the standards, routines and behaviours that help teams deliver better outcomes, improve productivity and realise sustainable efficiencies. You'll lead a team of Operational Excellence specialists while influencing hundreds of colleagues through communities of practice, capability frameworks and leadership engagement. You'll also shape the methods and standards used across transformation delivery, ensuring consistency, transparency and value realisation across our investment portfolio. As Head of Operational Excellence, you will lead the development and deployment of Scottish Water's enterprise operational excellence and performance management system. You will drive measurable improvements in productivity, flow, service performance and cost efficiency, while building and leading high-performing operational excellence and continuous improvement teams. A key part of the role will be coaching senior leaders to own performance, problem solving and continuous improvement within their areas. You will develop and embed Lean-based management systems, visual management, standard work and structured problem-solving approaches, helping to create a consistent and sustainable approach to performance improvement across the organisation. You will establish and maintain enterprise standards for continuous improvement, project management and agile delivery, ensuring a clear framework for delivering change. Working alongside Finance and business leaders, you will strengthen benefits realisation and efficiency delivery, helping to ensure improvement activity translates into measurable business outcomes. Supporting the delivery of Scottish Water's SR27 ambitions, you will enable sustainable operational and financial improvement across the organisation. You will also focus on building organisation-wide capability so that improvement becomes part of everyday work rather than a separate initiative, creating a culture where continuous improvement is embedded in the way we operate. We're interested in leaders who have delivered operational excellence at scale, not just improvement projects. You’ll bring significant experience leading operational excellence, Lean, continuous improvement or business transformation programmes within large, complex organisations, along with a strong track record of delivering measurable operational and financial performance improvements. You will have deep expertise in Lean, visual management, daily management systems, standard work and structured problem solving, as well as experience building enterprise-wide operating systems, management frameworks or improvement approaches. You’ll have the credibility to influence executives, operational leaders and frontline teams alike and the ability to build alignment across a diverse range of stakeholders. Strong commercial awareness is essential, including experience of benefits realisation, prioritisation and business case development. You’ll also bring experience leading teams and building capability through coaching, mentoring and communities of practice. Ideally, you hold relevant professional qualifications such as Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, or be able to demonstrate equivalent experience. Above all, you’ll be passionate about creating a culture of continuous improvement and helping the organisation deliver sustainable operational and financial performance. This role sits at the heart of Scottish Water's Transformation Strategy and will play a key role in enabling efficiencies through operational excellence and continuous improvement benefits as part of our SR27 programme. The impact you'll have won't be measured by the number of projects you run. It will be measured by the capability you build, the behaviours you embed and the lasting improvements you help our organisation achieve. While the work we do is important, we know it's not the only thing that matters. That's why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance. You’ll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take time off to volunteer in your community. When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working. For your future, there's our pension (the know-what-you'll-get-when-you-retire' kind), and life assurance. As for some nice extras? You will participate in a company bonus scheme. Not to mention access to SW Splash - handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping. This role will be at M1Level. A competitive package is on offer which includes a salary starting from £69,247 with the ability to advance to £86,887 based on consistent out-performance. We operate Balanced Hybrid working at Scottish Water and we encourage people to work half their time in a Scottish Water location. Job offers at Scottish Water are conditional, and will be confirmed on completion of our pre-employment screening, e.g. referencing, criminal record checks, license checks, etc. Screening is conducted on our behalf by a third party, and must be completed before your start date. Don't worry - we'll only start these checks once you've accepted an offer. #J-18808-Ljbffr

Mimica is an AI-powered process intelligence platform enabling enterprises and individuals to reclaim their most precious resource: time. We've all seen repetitive tasks and redundant processes quietly drain productivity and creativity. Not because companies don’t want to become more efficient, but because they don’t know where to start. Mimica automatically analyzes your team’s work, then generates the AI agents to execute it. Our software turns everyday work into data-backed decisions, helping companies remove process bottlenecks, automate the right tasks, and upskill teams with precision and confidence. We’ve raised $26 million in Series B financing and are scaling fast. Backed by investors including Khosla Ventures and Paladin Capital, our proprietary AI technology is trusted by Fortune 500 companies to accelerate transformation. Mimica is recognized as a Top 100 AI Start-up by Accel and an industry Leader by the Everest Group. Our team Behind our platform is a team of exceptionally talented people, remote-first and globally distributed across 16+ countries. We're looking for curious, collaborative people excited to solve complex problems. You'll join a fast-paced environment built on high ownership, bottom-up thinking, and transparent, open communication – helping some of the world's leading organizations transform the way work gets done with AI. Mimica is growing fast, and so is the demand on our Platform Team. As Head of Platform, you will lead a lean but highly capable team that is the backbone of every engineering squad in the company, and you will own the infrastructure strategy, including all AI infrastructure, as we scale. The Platform team services the entire engineering organisation: keeping environments healthy, unblocking teams, building the infrastructure that lets everyone else move faster, and working with teams regarding SRE topics and developer experience too. As you work with us, the role will develop into designing Mimica’s infrastructure strategy at scale. The team has 4 engineers today, around 6 by the end of the year, and 10+ in 2027, so the role has the potential to grow into a “manager of managers” level as the company grows. This is a role with real scope: expanding to multi-region and physically separated database environments, supporting Mimica’s first installable infrastructure component for enterprise, and owning FinOps. One day you are defining the standard menu of deployment options for enterprise customers, the next you are in a security review or an architecture decision on AI infrastructure. We are looking for leaders with either an application development or a systems/infrastructure background. What matters more than your origin story is your hands‑on credibility with Kubernetes, IaC, and cloud platforms, your ability to lead engineers and other leaders, and your ability to collaborate closely with Product, ML, Security, Sales and Customer Success. If you want to work in a place where your contributions are visible, your scope is broad, and the problems are real, this is the role for you. Own Mimica's infrastructure strategy and the platform roadmap across all products, with the final call on cloud architecture, deployment models, infra vendors and platform standards. Lead and grow the Platform team: Manage existing Platform and SREs, plan headcount, set goals and metrics, and design the sub-team split (Cloud & Developer Platform, Reliability & SRE, AI Infrastructure) as the team grows. Own all AI infrastructure, including training and serving infra, MLOps tooling, Vertex and model access. Maintain Mimica’s DevEx culture - improve agency for product teams without compromising on compliance, create paved roads for deployments, and identify pain points as they arise. Own the infra and LLM budget, forecast and unit economics, including cost attribution by product and customer and the GCP relationship. Own reliability across engineering: SLOs, on‑call model, incident process, postmortems, DR testing and capacity planning. Own the CI/CD and developer platform, infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, ArgoCD, Crossplane) and observability standards (Honeycomb, Grafana, Loki). Work with the Platform PM, your peer, to define client needs and turn them into the platform roadmap. Act as the named technical owner for infrastructure in enterprise deals and security reviews, joining high-stakes sales and client calls and coaching your team to take the rest. Guide the craft mentors for infrastructure, MLOps and Python engineering, and set engineering-wide standards for reliability, on‑call, CI/CD and craft. Report monthly platform health and costs to leadership, and lead the infrastructure part of technical due diligence. Proven experience leading engineers, ideally including managing a team lead or other managers, and growing a team through hiring and sub‑team design. Solid hands‑on experience with Kubernetes, whether on GKE (preferred), EKS, OnPrem, or another managed Kubernetes service, across multiple regions. Proven experience with infrastructure-as-code as a core part of your platform, such as Terraform, and with ArgoCD or a comparable GitOps tool. A track record in owning reliability: setting SLOs and SLAs, running on‑call, leading incident response and postmortems, and testing disaster recovery. Observability experience with at least one major platform: Honeycomb, Datadog, Grafana, or New Relic. Comfortable with code, and able to review architecture and prototypes hands‑on. Experience owning an infrastructure budget, including cloud cost attribution, forecasting and cloud‑provider relationships. Experience designing deployment models for enterprise customers (single tenant, regional, data residency) and supporting security reviews and contracted SLAs. Background in startups or scale‑ups: you are used to ambiguity, moving fast, and wearing multiple hats. Strong communication and collaboration skills: you can translate infrastructure complexity into clear language for engineers, executives and clients, and you know when to say no to bespoke requests. Familiarity with Crossplane, or a similar product like Config Connector. Experience with Temporal for workflow orchestration. Security and compliance experience, particularly supporting SOC 2. Experience supporting a funding round, including technical due diligence. • Generous compensation + stock options - aligned with our internal framework, market data, and individual skills., • Distributed work: Work from anywhere - fully remote, in our hubs, or a mix., • Company-issued laptop, remote setup stipend, and co‑working budget, • Flexible schedules and location, • Ample paid time off, in addition to local public holidays, • Enhanced parental leave, • Health & retirement benefits, • Annual learning & development budget, • Annual workaways and regular virtual & in‑person socials, • Opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking projects that shape the future of work Note: Some benefits may vary depending on location and role Mimica will only contact candidates from an @mimica.ai email address. We do not request banking or sensitive personal information during the recruiting process. #J-18808-Ljbffr
