About the role

  • WHY THIS ROLE, WHY NOW NetBox Labs is crossing a threshold: from a set of strong teams to a coordinated multi-team organization.
  • Today, the CTO carries both strategic and operational responsibility.
  • At the same time, the company is committing to a step-function shift toward AI-native engineering.

Responsibilities

  • The goal is to build a system that reliably turns strategy into shipped product.
  • You create momentum in imperfect conditions, tightening the system over time rather than waiting for it to be designed upfront.
  • You will lead three engineering directors and their teams.
  • Engineering delivers predictably across multiple products and delivery models without executive intervention
  • Coaching and support

Requirements

  • You have a bias toward progress.
  • You can move work forward with incomplete information, limited resources, and evolving structure.
  • You know when to invest in process - and when to bypass it to get results.
  • You have built and run an engineering organization at this size.
  • You know how to introduce structure without slowing teams down.
  • Execution track record
  • You have owned outcomes: shipped products, improved delivery systems, and fixed execution failures.
  • You have hands-on exposure to AI-assisted development and a point of view on how it changes engineering.

Skills

  • What is working and should be reinforced
  • What is fragile and needs structure
  • What is wrong and needs to change
  • We prioritize simplicity and think twice before adding complexity

Compensation

  • $40k-$100k

Company info

  • We are evolving from a single product into a multi-product platform, operating across both SaaS and on-prem delivery models.
  • We are standardizing shared foundations across teams while continuing to ship.
  • We are creating this VP of Engineering role to own day-to-day engineering execution - delivery, people development, and cross-team coordination - so the CTO can focus on strategy.
