Head of Engineering

Join the visionary team at Tamnoon and help us build the future of cloud security!

Tamnoon is a leader in Managed Cloud Remediation. We combine human expertise with technology to help teams quickly and safely remediate cloud risks, addressing a critical need in the industry. With a small but mighty team, we foster a collaborative, innovative, and flexible work environment where each team member plays a pivotal role in our success as Tamnooners!

We’re hiring a Head of Engineering to lead the next phase of innovation at Tamnoon, the leader in Managed Cloud Remediation. As a Series A startup at the intersection of cloud security and AI automation, we’re building transformative products that help teams remediate risks safely, scalably, and fast.

This is not a backseat leadership role—we’re looking for a builder. Someone who can architect and ship secure, intelligent systems. Someone fluent in LLMs, agents, and AI-first design. Someone who codes when needed, but leads by unlocking great ideas across a high-performing team.

As Head of Engineering, you will shape our technical vision, product execution, and direction. You’ll work shoulder to shoulder with Product and Security leadership to turn new capabilities into customer value—fast.

Lead Technical Innovation at the Frontier

• Drive research and development of secure, scalable AI-powered systems that elevate how customers understand and respond to cloud risks.
• Define and execute a vision for embedding LLMs, agents, and decision systems into Tamnoon’s remediation workflows.
• Architect AI-native components (e.g., secure retrieval pipelines, multi-agent orchestration, feedback loops) with performance, security, and explainability in mind.
• Introduce and iterate on new AI features that give customers clarity, control, and confidence in automation.
  

Build a World-Class R&D Team

• Mentor and hire a diverse, high-performing team of full-stack, backend engineers, and machine learning individuals
• Foster a culture of engineering excellence and ownership, where innovation thrives but reliability and security remain uncompromised.
• Lead technical design reviews, research prototyping cycles, and production readiness processes.
  

Bridge Product, Engineering, and Customer Impact

• Partner closely with Product and Security to translate vision into roadmap and roadmap into reality—without losing agility.
• Shape technical direction through a deep understanding of both infrastructure risk and user pain.
• Balance short-term impact and long-term investment across experimentation, core system improvements, and platform evolution.
  

Be a Face of Innovation

• Represent Tamnoon in technical due diligence, investor briefings, and AI/security thought leadership opportunities.
• Stay on top of the latest in open-source AI, cloud architecture, and cybersecurity to bring the best ideas into the fold.

• 10+ years in software engineering with a strong R&D orientation; ideally 3+ in a leadership capacity.
• Proven experience designing and shipping complex, secure systems in the cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Deep hands-on fluency with LLMs, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), autonomous agents, and open-source AI tooling (e.g., LangChain, OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, vector DBs).
• Track record of building and leading cross-functional, high-agency engineering teams that move fast and build for scale.
• Strong product sense and ability to connect research breakthroughs with end-user value.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills—especially in remote, distributed environments.

• Background in cybersecurity, security tooling, or remediation workflows.
• Experience integrating AI into B2B SaaS, developer platforms, or workflow automation products.
• Familiarity with secure AI practices, privacy controls, and ethical model deployment.
