Head of Engineering - Korn Ferry Executive Search : Job Details

What You'll Be Doing • Build With Purpose: You'll take ownership of core product features - from onboarding flows and tailored investment plans to automation tools and more. You'll be working hands-on with technologies like Swift (iOS), React.js (frontend), and Node.js + TypeScript (backend). • Be a Key Collaborator: Partner closely with the founding team, design, and growth to make smart, fast product decisions - and then bring them to life across the stack. • Shape the Team's DNA: As one of the first engineers, you'll play a major role in defining how we build - setting the tone for code quality, team culture, and engineering practices. • Think Like an Owner: You'll have a direct impact on what we build and how fast we move. You'll care deeply about the product, the code, and the customer experience - because this is your company too. You Might Be a Fit If... • You've Built Things That Made It to the Real World: Whether it was an MVP, an app in the App Store, or a personal project - you've launched something that real people used. • You're Tech-Agnostic, but Love the Stack: You're comfortable working across the full stack - from SwiftUI quirks on iOS to React.js UIs and Node/TypeScript APIs - and aren't afraid to dive into unfamiliar territory when needed. • You Figure Things Out: Whether it's duct-taping APIs, working around platform limitations, or learning something on the fly, you get things done. • You Thrive in the Chaos: Fast-paced, early-stage environments bring out your best work. You're comfortable with ambiguity and quick iterations. • You Obsess Over the Details: You care about how a feature feels as much as how it's architected - and you aren't afraid to push for great UX. • You Have Strong Opinions, Lightly Held: You bring ideas to the table, back them up, and know when to listen and adapt.
