Head of Engineering

New Today

About The Role We’re hiring a Head of Engineering to own and scale ThreatAware's Product Engineering function – backend, frontend, and QA. You’ll report to the CTO, partner with the Chief Architect, and build the team that ships our AI‑powered next chapter. If you’ve scaled engineering orgs before and get happiest when great software is going out the door, this is the role. Why ThreatAware? ThreatAware gives security teams a single source of truth for every device and tool in their organization. With 150+ integrations, deploys in under 30 minutes, and real‑time visibility across entire IT estates, finance, legal, energy, and healthcare teams trust us to show them what's protected and what isn’t. We’re now building something bigger. Six years of accurate cyber asset data, layered with AI, gives security teams new ways to interrogate their data, automate workflows, and act on risk before it becomes a problem. The engineering team you build will deliver this. What you’ll do
Build the engineering organization and run it. Hire and grow backend (C#/.NET), frontend (TypeScript), and QA teams as we scale significantly. Set technical direction with the Chief Architect and CTO – architecture decisions that let us ship fast without breaking things for enterprise customers with 50,000+ device estates. Own delivery end‑to‑end: planning, pipelines, quality gates, release cadence. Coordinate with DevOps on infrastructure and R&D on applied research that feeds into the product. Be the voice of engineering across the business – what we're building, what it takes, and when it ships.
What we’re looking for
You’ve scaled an engineering org and built the structures to make it work. Strong technical instincts – you’re not writing code daily but you know when something’s off. A bias for shipping, tempered by good judgement about where the line is. Experience in SaaS, cybersecurity, or infrastructure software. You’re as clear talking to the board about timelines as you are talking to engineers about systems design. Bonus: you’ve built AI‑powered products or worked with research teams.
