About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Own technical delivery across a focused portfolio of 1–2 enterprise accounts — setting direction, managing risk, and holding the standard on outcomes.
  • Act as the senior technical partner for C-suite stakeholders: translate business problems into architectural decisions and make those decisions defensible.
  • Guide clients through the hardest AI transformation decisions — when to automate, when to augment, how to govern, and how to scale what's working.
  • Be the person clients call when something is critical or when they need a strategic perspective, not just a project update.
  • Build reusable Tribe IP from your client work: architecture patterns, evaluation frameworks, deployment playbooks, and tooling that raises the floor for every FDE team.
  • Develop Tribe's point of view in your domain — whether that's healthcare, financial services, supply chain, or another vertical you know deeply.
  • Spot what's generalizable before anyone else does. The best FD-CTOs don't just solve one client's problem — they solve it in a way that makes the next engagement faster and sharper.
  • Hire, develop, and retain FD Engineers, Architects, and PMs across your accounts.
  • Create conditions for your teams to do their best work — clear scope, the right tools, and air cover to move fast.
  • Run 1:1s and performance conversations that actually accelerate people's growth, not just check the box.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 12+ years of engineering experience with deep expertise in AI/ML and production systems.
  • You've founded a company or built a 0-to-1 product as a technical lead. You know what it means to own an outcome, not just a workstream.
  • Strong command of the modern AI stack: LLMs, agentic frameworks, RAG, vector infrastructure, cloud deployment, and evaluation pipelines.
  • Background in client-facing or consulting engineering where delivery accountability was real — not advisory.
  • Executive presence: you can hold a room with a Fortune 500 CTO and earn trust in the first conversation.
  • You think in systems and patterns. You see what's reusable across client problems before anyone else does.
  • Comfortable managing ambiguity across high-stakes accounts without losing track of what matters.
