CTO

About the role

This C-level role at an online gaming and digital services company focuses on leading and scaling the engineering organization. The CTO will be responsible for accelerating delivery, improving release predictability, and refining engineering processes and team interactions. A key aspect of the role involves participating in architectural decisions and shaping the technical strategy.

A core part of the mandate is the implementation of AI within development processes. This includes leveraging AI for code generation, automating testing, assisting in code reviews, and ultimately speeding up time-to-market. The CTO will also be hands-on when necessary, auditing development processes to identify and remove bottlenecks.

The role demands a strong focus on platform security, encompassing OWASP principles, transaction protection, and anti-fraud measures, which is critical in the iGaming and digital services sector. Success in this position means driving measurable improvements in development efficiency and security through strategic technical leadership and AI integration.

Skills that matter here

• Python: A deep understanding of Python is beneficial for architectural decisions and potentially hands-on involvement, given its prevalence in modern tech stacks.
• Node.js: Familiarity with Node.js is a plus, indicating its use within the company's existing or planned technology infrastructure.
