The Role
Join Our Team

Oowlish, one of Latin America's rapidly expanding software development companies, is seeking experienced technology professionals to enhance our diverse and vibrant team.

As a valued member of Oowlish, you will collaborate with premier clients from the United States and Europe, contributing to pioneering digital solutions. Our commitment to creating a nurturing work environment is recognized by our certification as a Great Place to Work, where you will have opportunities for professional development, growth, and a chance to make a significant international impact.

We offer the convenience of remote work, allowing you to craft a work-life balance that suits your personal and professional needs. We're looking for candidates who are passionate about technology, proficient in English, and excited to engage in remote collaboration for a worldwide presence.

About the role:
 
Many early-stage and growth companies need senior technical leadership, but not always on a full-time basis.
 
They need experienced leaders who can:
 
• Define technical architecture that scales with the company
• Align product vision with engineering execution
• Guide engineering teams through growth and complexity
• Introduce discipline without slowing momentum
• Use AI as a force multiplier across the development lifecycle
 
This is not a ceremonial CTO role.
 
This is hands-on strategic leadership with real influence across high-potential startups.
 
We are connecting with leaders who want to operate across multiple ventures, while partnering with a strong engineering organization capable of executing at speed.

What You Will Do:

  • Define and evolve scalable architecture from early-stage to growth
  • Make high-impact technical decisions under uncertainty
  • Partner directly with founders on product and technology strategy
  • Lead and mentor distributed engineering teams
  • Establish lean, high-velocity development processes
  • Integrate AI tools and workflows to increase development speed and quality
  • Evaluate technical debt pragmatically and prioritize what matters
  • Support hiring decisions and engineering organization design when needed

Proven Technical Leadership:

  • Experience as CTO, VP of Engineering, or senior technical leader
  • Track record of taking products from 0 → 1 and 1 → scale
  • Deep architectural experience across modern tech stacks
  • Strong cloud and distributed systems expertise

Startup Execution Mindset:

  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity
  • Understands capital efficiency and startup constraints
  • Moves fast while staying pragmatic
  • Focuses on impact rather than perfection

AI-First Engineering Mindset:

  • Practical experience using AI tools to accelerate development, prototyping, testing, and documentation
  • Understands where AI increases velocity and where engineering judgment is essential

Distributed Leadership:

  • Experience leading distributed, nearshore, or offshore engineering teams
  • Ability to build trust and performance across time zones
  • Strong communication skills with both engineers and business leaders

Why This Is Different

  • Focus on technical leadership and strategy, not delivery management
  • Operate across multiple companies and high-growth environments
  • Work alongside a partner that provides deep engineering execution capacity
  • Flexible engagement models designed around impact and outcomes

Come join us in breaking the mold and revolutionizing the tech landscape!
