We\u2019ve been in business for 10 years, have 60 people across Ukraine, Europe, Canada, and the US, and process over $16M in annual GMV. We compress the traditional 2\u20135 week hiring timeline down to 24\u201348 hours through a curated, pre-vetted supply of developers.<\/p>\n<p>Hiring is still broken. Recruiters spend weeks building candidate pipelines on traditional platforms, burning energy on unqualified leads. We\u2019re building the product that changes that. Giving recruiters qualified, vetted candidates within 24 hours without the grind. This is a pivotal moment: we\u2019re transitioning from a services-driven marketplace to a technology-driven platform. We need an engineering leader who can drive that transformation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Role<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You will own engineering at Lemon.io. You\u2019ll lead a growing team of engineers, make critical architecture and prioritization decisions, and be directly accountable for the speed and quality of what we ship. This is not a management-layer role. You\u2019ll be hands-on, deeply involved in product decisions, and working side by side with the founder.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What You\u2019ll Do:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Own the technical roadmap and make sure every engineering effort maps directly to business impact. No features for features\u2019 sake.<\/li>\n<li>Lead and grow an engineering team that ships fast, iterates constantly, and treats complexity as a cost.<\/li>\n<li>Tackle the hard, multi-layered problem: automated vetting, intelligent matching at scale, demand-side bottlenecks. And figure out where the real leverage is.<\/li>\n<li>Make hard prioritization calls. Decide what we build, what we skip, and what we kill.<\/li>\n<li>Work directly with the founder and product team to define what success looks like before writing a single line of code.<\/li>\n<li>Build the engineering culture: high ownership, high speed, low bureaucracy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Who You Are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Product-minded, business-first<\/li>\n<li>Obsessed with simplicity<\/li>\n<li>First principles thinker<\/li>\n<li>Fast. Bias toward action<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>\u0627\u0644\u062e\u0628\u0631\u0629:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You\u2019ve led engineering teams (5\u201330+ people) at a startup or high-growth company.<\/li>\n<li>You have hands-on experience with modern stacks and are comfortable with AI\/ML tooling.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ve worked in a distributed, async-first team.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Why Lemon.io:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Profitable and growing. No fundraising pressure, real business fundamentals.<\/li>\n<li>A pivotal moment: you\u2019re not maintaining an engine, you\u2019re building one. The product roadmap is wide open.<\/li>\n<li>Direct access to the founder. No layers. Your decisions ship.<\/li>\n<li>A massive, unsolved problem: hiring is still broken. We\u2019re building the product that makes it radically faster for companies to find qualified engineers.<\/li>\n<li>A team of 60 people who move fast, care deeply, and have survived the hard years together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>To apply:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/weworkremotely.com\/remote-jobs\/lemon-io-head-of-engineering\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/weworkremotely.com\/remote-jobs\/lemon-io-head-of-engineering<\/a><\/p>\n<p>System Design, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Engineer, Full Time, System Architecture,  Risk Management, Leadership, Team Management,  Stakeholder Communication, AI Agents, and Distributed Systems<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":100,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","job_listing_type":[1174],"job_listing_category":[1270],"job_listing_location":[1645],"job_listing_tag":[],"class_list":["post-87965","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","hentry","job_listing_type-remote","job_listing_category-management-and-finance","job_listing_location-delaware"],"metas":{"_job_featured_image":"","_job_featured":"","_job_filled":"","_job_urgent":"","_job_category":{"1270":"Management and Finance"},"_job_type":{"1174":"Remote"},"_job_tag":[],"_job_expiry_date":"","_job_gender":"","_job_apply_type":"external","_job_phone":"","_job_apply_url":"https:\/\/weworkremotely.com\/remote-jobs\/lemon-io-head-of-engineering","_job_apply_email":"","_job_salary_type":"","_job_salary":"","_job_experience":"","_job_career_level":"","_job_qualification":"","_job_video_url":"","_job_photos":"","_job_application_deadline_date":"","_job_address":"","_job_location":{"1645":"Delaware"},"_job_map_location":{"address":"","latitude":"","longitude":""},"_job_logo":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp-job-board-pro-uploads\/_employer_featured_image\/2025\/11\/ICON-Here-Careers-Logo-150-150x150.png","_job_employer_name":"HR","_job_employer_url":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/employer\/hr\/"},"cmb2":{"_job_careerjet_job_fields":{"_job_careerjet_detail_url":"","_job_careerjet_company_name":""}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing\/87965","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/job_listing"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/100"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=87965"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=87965"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"job_listing_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_type?post=87965"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_category?post=87965"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_location?post=87965"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/herecareers.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_tag?post=87965"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
