About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

MyPattern's beta is live. Real users are in the product. Now we need the hands-on engineering leader who will take it from here.
As Founding CTO, you'll partner directly with our founder to scale and deepen the platform that's already in users' hands. This is a high-impact, founder-level role — you're not starting from zero, but you're shaping everything that comes next. You'll inherit and evolve a live codebase, accelerate feature development, and harden the infrastructure as we grow from beta into our full product launch.
Expect to wear many hats, move fast, and have significant influence over our product, team, and company as we scale. The technical decisions you make now will define MyPattern for years.
