Head of Engineering, Enterprise AI

About the role:

Your mission is to lead the Turing Enterprise AI Platform technical team. The SDK shipped in late 2025 and the control plane has existed since early 2026; the platform is being hardened for first tenants in Q1 2027. You will build the team into a platform organization of eight to ten, and set the seams with the Chief AI Architect, who owns client-facing architecture and the evaluation agenda.

Role responsibilities

First 90 days: Publish the hardening backlog with clear exit criteria; ensure four Q4 engineers are hired or in offer stage.

Q1 2027 Goals: Release the control plane as a no-fee trial to first tenants; ensure tenant onboarding is completed in under four weeks.

First Year Deliverables: Deliver a model-agnostic, multi-tenant control plane with an agent builder, model gateway, evaluations, FinOps, observability, guardrails, RBAC, and connectors, deployable in client cloud and sovereign environments. Secure at least one client use case with a measured eval and a trained model beating frontier baselines.

Ongoing Alignment: Conduct weekly roadmap reviews with the President and Chief AI Architect, utilizing engagement leads as the voice of the client.
