Key Responsibilities

• Take ownership of the systems and infrastructure that the business runs on
• Set the direction for an expanding AI investment program, turning new capabilities into real product and business value
• Take ownership of security posture and risk tradeoffs across the technology stack as the business continues to grow
• Hire and keep technical leaders who can operate at the speed and scale the business has grown into
• Act as a go-to technology voice for the President and the rest of the executive team
• Close the gap between what the technology team invests in and the business outcomes it's meant to drive
• Absorb the technology left behind by a steady stream of acquisitions, cleaning up inherited systems and unresolved technical debt as they come in
• Combine deep technical range with the instincts of a business leader, someone who owns outcomes for the company, not just the codebase
• Build credibility with private capital investors, staying comfortable with the rhythms of board reporting and governance

Qualifications & Experience

• You need to be in Miami/Fort Lauderdale or Boston.
• A track record leading technology as CTO or Head of Technology inside a fast-growing company, with ownership spanning engineering, product, data, and security
• You've led a team of 150+ product and engineering.
• Technology industry experience is preferred, though what matters most is a background steeped in data-heavy products
• Current, hands-on fluency in AI/ML and modern engineering practices, credible enough to debate architecture and technical tradeoffs directly, not just at a strategic level
• Has worked hands-on with messy, large-scale data, whether that's cleaning, standardizing, or matching records across many disconnected sources
• Has built and scaled a technology organization from the ground up, including hiring and growing senior leaders underneath
• Comfortable in environments with frequent M&A activity and the technical integration work that comes along with it
• Comfortable operating alongside private equity or growth investors, including the reporting rhythms and oversight that come with that kind of ownership
• Sees technology investment through a business lens, and can clearly explain the ROI case to non-technical stakeholders
• Self-directed, biased toward action, and equally comfortable setting the strategic direction and rolling up their sleeves to execute it
• 10+ years of senior technology leadership experience in a complex, fast-growing operating environment
