About the Role

LlamaIndex is hiring a Head of Engineering to lead a team of approximately 10–20 engineers building software that makes enterprise data useful for AI applications.

You will own engineering execution, technical direction, hiring, and team development. You will work closely with company leadership and product teams to decide what we build, how we build it, and how we deliver it reliably to customers.

This is a hands-on role. You should be comfortable reviewing code and architecture, debugging production issues, and writing code for critical systems.
