Posted on Mar 14, 2026
Authologic is at an exciting inflection point. We are evolving from a tight-knit team of 12 into a scalable engineering organization. We don’t need a "General" to command people; we need a Technical Partner who leads by example and expertise.
You will work directly with our CTO and Head of R&D to provide the architectural "fuel" needed for our next stage of growth. This isn't about climbing a ladder—it’s about having a seat at the table where technical strategy is shaped and taking real ownership of how we scale.
Your Impact
I hereby consent to the processing of personal data contained in my application to be processed by Authologic Sp. z o.o. I hereby also give consent for personal data included in my CV to be processed for the purposes of any future recruitment process.

Your Impact
- Scaling the Engine: Lead the transition from a single-team flow to a multi-team architecture (decoupling, CI/CD evolution, and improving Developer Experience).
- High-Agency Ownership: You identify systemic bottlenecks before they become problems. You lead initiatives from technical design to production, ensuring we build for the future without losing speed.
- Pragmatic Security (SSDLC): Help us navigate compliance and certifications (like TSP) by building security into the DNA of our development process—focusing on smart automation, not bureaucracy.
- Collaborative Design: Act as a sounding board for the product team. You help shape features by balancing user needs with technical sustainability.
- Expert JVM / Kotlin foundations: You are a seasoned engineer who understands the internals of the JVM. While we use Kotlin, your ability to master the ecosystem is what matters most.
- Systems Architecture: You have a track record of designing distributed systems that are both robust and easy to maintain.
- Low Ego, High Impact: You prioritize the best solution over being "right." You communicate complex technical trade-offs clearly to both engineers and business stakeholders.
- Experience with Growth: Ideally, you’ve seen an organization grow from a dozen to 50+ engineers and you know where the architectural "potholes" are hidden.
- Base salary + participation in the Authologic Inc. Employee Stock Option Program.
- Remote-first culture with access to co-working spaces (we’re a remote organization, but we meet occasionally in the office and during our quarterly off-sites).
- Good start-up vibes, ability to work with ambitious people, and access to the YC network via Authologic founders.
- We give you a lot of space and autonomy to take action - just tell us what you need!
