Head of Engineering - AI-Driven Tech Organisation - Remote
Salary: Up to £150,000
Location: Remote (UK)
Job Type: Permanent
About the Role
A rapidly scaling technology business at the forefront of AI-assisted engineering is looking for an experienced Head of Engineering to lead three core technical areas: Web, Data, and Data Science. This role is perfect for someone excited by modern engineering practices, greenfield product development, and organisations that use AI as a core part of how they build software. If you enjoy problem-solving in non-traditional ways, thrive in a friendly and informal culture, and want to work with cutting-edge AI tools (including ChatGPT and Gemini), this is an exceptional opportunity.
What You’ll Be Doing
*Leading Web, Data, and Data Science teams across a large engineering organisation
*Managing multiple senior direct reports and developing strong leadership capability
*Driving engineering delivery, process quality, and technical standards
*Contributing to architectural decisions across distributed data systems, ML pipelines, and modern web applications
*Working closely with the C-suite on engineering strategy and org development
*Embedding AI-driven development workflows (70% of code is generated using AI tools)
*Supporting the build of entirely greenfield products and systems.
Key Requirements:
*Web teams
*Data engineering teams using distributed technologies (e.g., Spark)
*Data Science / ML teams
*Leadership experience over multi-discipline engineering teams
*Strong soft-skills leadership: coaching, clarity, communication
*Experience in high-growth, fast-changing environments
*A passion for AI, experimentation, and innovative engineering approaches
Why This Role Stands Out:
*Entirely greenfield work across new products and platforms
*Ultra-modern tech stack and engineering culture
*Company is far ahead of the industry in AI adoption
*Opportunity to work with AI tools daily
*Startup mindset
