AI Summary

Lead the Platform Team in developing the company's backend foundation, tooling, and infrastructure to support high volumes of 3D scan and CAD data. Manage team execution through Agile ceremonies while coaching and mentoring engineers to improve engineering velocity and reliability.

Twindo is at the forefront of revolutionizing the remodeling, architecture, and interior design industry through cutting-edge AI and computer vision technology. With our LiDAR-enabled iPhone or iPad scans, we capture precise 3D representations of homes in minutes, providing interactive models with accurate-to-the-inch measurements. Our proprietary process then turns these scans into highly detailed, editable, as-built files in industry-standard formats. Our technology was featured at Apple's keynote when the iPhone's LiDAR sensor was introduced, and we now model millions of square feet each month.

As a global virtual-first company, our team members are distributed worldwide, with a concentration in the US and Europe.

We are looking for an experienced, strategically-minded Engineering leader who is excited about helping a startup navigate early growth stages and build for scale. An important member of our R&D leadership cohort, this role directly manages our Platform Team – a mission-critical group of backend and infrastructure-focused engineers, who build and maintain our technical foundation and tooling to help us scale and move faster. 

This is an exciting opportunity to coach and mentor talented engineers from around the world, work on unique and challenging technical problems, and help us set up our technical backbone for the future. Twindo is a remote-first company with a globally distributed team. We balance autonomy and flexibility with a strong work-ethic and care for the success of the business.

An ideal candidate would have team management maturity, passion and deep expertise in designing scalable systems, and would be a key thought partner for the Head of Engineering, CPTO and other leaders of the company. 

We're currently hiring remote candidates based in Europe and Latin America (LATAM).
