资深工程师/工程负责人

The Role
Navable is hiring a senior, hands-on Lead Engineer / Head of Engineering to own the technical foundation of the company.
This is a foundational leadership role for an experienced full-stack engineer who wants real ownership across architecture, execution, AI strategy, and team building — with a clear path to leading Navable’s long-term engineering organization.
You will work directly with the Founder & CEO to:

• Scale and harden our core platform

• Architect systems built for financial accuracy, auditability, and security

• Execute on a roadmap of AI-powered products embedded directly into fund operations workflows

• Establish engineering standards and hire our early in-house team

In the near term, this role is deeply hands-on. You will write production code, own architectural decisions, manage external engineering resources, and establish engineering standards. Over time, you will hire and lead a growing in-house team.
While this is a remote role, candidates must be based in the U.S., with a strong preference for someone in the greater New York area.
What You’ll Own
Architecture & Platform

• Own system architecture and technical roadmap

• Evolve our carry and compensation engine to support increasingly complex firm structures

• Ensure scalability, performance, and enterprise-grade reliability

AI Product Execution

• Lead development of AI-based features that enhance workflows, automation, and decision support

• Translate real customer pain points into practical, production-ready AI solutions

• Establish the foundation for applied AI across the Navable platform

Hands-On Development

• Write high-quality production code across frontend, backend, and infrastructure

• Lead technical refactors and improve developer velocity

Security & Compliance

• Design secure systems appropriate for institutional financial clients

• Support SOC 2 and enterprise security requirements

Engineering Leadership

• Manage current external engineering resources

• Define hiring needs and build Navable’s in-house engineering team

• Establish strong engineering culture and standards

Who You Are

• Senior full-stack engineer with early-stage startup experience

• Have owned architecture through periods of growth

• Comfortable across frontend, backend, and cloud infrastructure

• Experienced building systems that handle sensitive financial or regulated data

• Excited about applying AI in structured, high-value enterprise workflows

• Thrive in high-ownership, ambiguous environments

• Want to build and lead an enduring engineering organization

Compensation

• Competitive base salary

• Meaningful equity ownership

• Flexible PTO

This is an opportunity to define the technical and AI foundation of a company building infrastructure for the alternative asset ecosystem.
