English: B2 or higher, C1 ideal Contract: Full-time, indefinite B2B contract with Radity; you invoice Radity monthly in USD. Location: Remote Core hours: 09:00–18:00 CET, with evening overlap with US clients The company Radity is a Swiss-based software engineering company of 70+ people, fully remote and working mostly with US clients, many in insurance. It is founder-managed, with direct access to the CEO. Its teams build and run complex client platforms, and the engineering organization is growing. The next step is consistent engineering standards and AI-assisted practices across every team and project. You lead engineers and their leads, join the leadership team and report to the CEO. This is not a hands-off executive role: you stay close to architecture and the major technical decisions. What you'll do - Lead and develop engineering teams across several complex client projects. - Own engineering quality, delivery standards and technical direction. - Guide architecture, system design and major technical decisions. - Coach engineering leads and developers in their professional growth. - Turn client and stakeholder needs into practical technical plans, estimates and delivery risk control. - Drive AI-assisted engineering practices across teams and projects. - Shape hiring, team structure and engineering capabilities. What you bring - Proven leadership of engineering teams as a CTO, Head of Engineering, Engineering Manager or similar. - Complex enterprise software projects you led to delivery. - Strong judgment in software architecture, system design and modern engineering practices. - Senior engineers and technical leads you have managed and developed. - Ownership of quality and technical decisions, with the trade-offs you can explain. - Daily use of AI tools and a plan for spreading them across teams. - Clear communication with clients, stakeholders and leadership. Nice to have: insurance or insurtech experience. Not for you if you want to step away from technical decisions, or prefer managing one team over leading several. What Radity offers - Indefinite contract: not tied to the end date of one project. - Full equipment, paid AI tools and learning budget. - Global team events. - Startup-style projects for established clients, with real influence on direction. - A seat on the leadership team, shaping Radity's technology strategy, engineering organization and AI adoption.
