CTO - Fashion Startup
We believe you are strategic, but grounded. You can see the big picture and still know how to focus on what really matters here and now to move things forward.
We are a small team working on something big. A new kind of fashion experience powered by AI. Our product lets people create personal avatars, try on clothes virtually, and shop directly from a curated, shoppable catalog.
Think: Hyper personalization meets real-life utility.
We are now looking for a CTO to join as co-founder. This is a core leadership role. You will help shape product, tech and the future of our company.
The Role
Your focus will be on defining our technical direction and building the right team to get us there. You don’t need to write every line of code, but you do need to make the key technical decisions, and know what good execution looks like.
We are early-stage, so in this role you will mix vision, architecture, and structure with plenty of day-to-day problem solving.
What you’ll be doing
- Set the technical roadmap, architecture, and tools
- Hire and lead a small (distributed) engineering team
- Turn product ideas into stable, scalable systems
- Keep quality high from AI pipelines to mobile UX to backend performance
- Balance speed with long-term thinking
- Represent the tech side in conversations with partners and investors
Who You Are
You are someone who’s built things before. Maybe a startup, maybe a platform, maybe a high performing team. You have worked in fastmoving environments with limited resources and shifting priorities, and you are comfortable making decisions without perfect information.
You have
- Experience from roles like tech lead, early employee, or co-founder
- Know what it takes to lead and support distributed teams
- Have worked on a consumer product, ideally mobile-first
- Experience with AI, fashion, or e-commerce platforms
- Can explain tech clearly. Especially to non-technical stakeholders
We are looking for someone who’s strategic, but grounded – someone who can see the big picture and still knows how to focus on what really matters right now. You have a builder’s mindset and don’t hesitate to roll up your sleeves when needed. You lead with clarity, not ego, and know how to bring people with you. Most importantly, you carry that founder energy – the drive to build something meaningful and the desire to truly own a part of the journey.
What We are Offering
- A co-founder role in a high-potential startup
- Equity and influence from day one
- Remote-first culture with flexibility built in
- A product with real traction and a clear roadmap
- The chance to build something ambitious, useful, and different
We are here to make shopping smarter, easier – and more personal. The foundation is in place. Now we need the right person to lead the tech side of our journey. If this sounds like you, let’s talk. This is a recruitment by Digitalenta. The process contains structured interviews, psychometic testing and a case assignment.
