About ReCulture:

At ReCulture, we?re not your typical recruitment agency. We?re talent matchmakers - connecting top talent with environments where they?ll thrive. Our approach goes beyond the surface, focusing on behaviours and values as much as skills. Partnering with clients like an in-house team but moving at the speed of an agency, we deliver long-term impact by ensuring the right values fit.

We are looking for a visionary Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead the technology behind our client?s mission. This is more than just a technical leadership role?it?s an opportunity to build a platform that transforms how people connect, create, and belong in their cities and neighbourhoods.

As CTO, you will lead the development of a fast, scalable, and secure platform that empowers thousands of communities and helps people find their place in the world.

Skills and Responsibilities

  • Proven experience as a CTO, VP of Engineering, or Senior Tech Lead in a fast-scaling SaaS, platform, or mobile-first company.
  • Expertise in Flutter, PHP (Laravel), TypeScript, JavaScript (Next.js), AWS, and MySQL.
  • A passion for community building, social impact, and solving loneliness through technology.
  • Strong leadership skills with a track record of building and scaling high-performance engineering teams.
  • Experience architecting and launching scalable platforms with strong backend infrastructure.
  • Develop AI-driven features that enhance community engagement and personalisation.
  • Optimize the platform for ease of use, reliability, and performance at scale.
  • Leverage location-based technology to connect people in their cities and neighbourhoods.
  • Build and mentor an engineering team passionate about social impact.
  • Create a culture of innovation, collaboration, and rapid iteration.
  • Implement best practices in DevOps, CI/CD, security, and scalability.
  • Ensure compliance with global security and privacy standards.
  • Develop robust moderation and community safety tools.

Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with event-based platforms, social apps, or community-driven products.
  • Knowledge of AI, Web3, or decentralized technology.
  • A background in user behaviour analytics and engagement-driven design.
