Head of Engineering

About Kreesalis
Kreesalis is an AI-first technology company building intelligent enterprise platforms. Through K-Protect and K-Control, we are transforming how organizations manage security, governance, risk, and compliance through automation and AI-driven innovation.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a hands-on Head of Engineering to lead our engineering team, shape the technology architecture, and drive large-scale enterprise implementations.
This is an opportunity for a technology leader who enjoys building—not just managing. You will combine architectural expertise with hands-on AI development, DevOps, and infrastructure engineering to deliver scalable, enterprise-ready products across SaaS and on-premise environments.
Key Responsibilities
Engineering & Architecture: Own the technical roadmap, architecture, scalability, security, and reliability of K-Protect and K-Control.
Hands-on AI Development: Build and integrate AI/LLM applications, AI agents, and intelligent workflows while contributing directly to coding and technical problem-solving.
Cloud & DevOps: Lead cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, load management, performance optimization, and production reliability.
Enterprise Implementation: Drive large-scale deployments across SaaS, private cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments.
Team Leadership: Lead, mentor, and manage a team of 10–15 developers and engineers, ensuring engineering excellence and timely delivery.
Business Collaboration: Work closely with product, sales, customers, and leadership to translate business requirements into robust technical solutions.
What We’re Looking For
15–20+ years of experience in software engineering, architecture, and technology delivery.
Proven experience delivering large-scale enterprise software implementations.
Strong hands-on programming skills and practical experience building AI/LLM-based applications.
Deep expertise in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, distributed systems, scalability, and on-premise deployments.
Experience managing engineering teams while remaining technically hands-on.
Strong problem-solving, architectural decision-making, and execution capabilities.
Experience in enterprise SaaS, cybersecurity, identity management, or GRC platforms is an advantage.
Core Management & Equity Participation
This role offers the opportunity to be part of Kreesalis' core management team, contributing to product strategy, technology investments, business priorities, and long-term growth.
We are open to discussing equity participation or an ESOP arrangement, subject to mutual agreement and applicable company policies and approvals. We value leaders who take ownership, think beyond their functional responsibilities, and are motivated to build lasting enterprise value.
Why Join Kreesalis?
Build, not just manage: Shape the engineering foundations of AI-powered enterprise products.
Own meaningful outcomes: Influence product direction, architecture, and implementation strategy.
Work with AI: Turn emerging AI capabilities into practical enterprise solutions.
Grow with the business: Contribute to core management decisions and explore long-term equity-linked incentives.
If you are a hands-on engineering leader who can architect, code, scale, and lead—and want to help build the next generation of enterprise AI solutions—we would like to hear from you.
