High-growth company driven by high performance
TechInsights is at an inflection point - evolving from the world's leading semiconductor intelligence platform into a fully AI-enabled intelligence company. At the center of that transformation is the Chief Technology Officer.
As a member of the Executive Leadership Team reporting directly to the CEO, the CTO holds full accountability for TechInsights' technology strategy and the engineering organization spanning AI Engineering, AI Policy & Governance, Reverse Engineering R&D, and IT Support. This is a role for a leader who can operate at the intersection of bold vision and disciplined execution — translating corporate strategy into engineering capability, aligning technology investment with business outcomes, and representing TechInsights' capabilities to customers, partners, and the board of directors.
TechInsights' competitive advantage is built on a proprietary foundation of semiconductor intelligence, reverse engineering data, structured market analysis, and advanced analytics. The CTO is the steward of that foundation — extending it through engineering excellence, robust platform development, and purposeful AI-driven innovation. This means bringing deep expertise in agentic AI systems, cloud-native platforms, and applied machine learning to bear on real, high-stakes problems in one of the most technically demanding industries in the world.
The ideal candidate sets enterprise-wide engineering standards, builds and sustains a high-performance technology culture, and partners closely with leaders across Product, Sales, Operations, and Security & AI Governance to prioritize technology investments that drive TechInsights' strategic objectives. If you are energized by the challenge of scaling world-class engineering at the frontier of AI and semiconductor intelligence, this role was built for you.
