Lisbon, Portugal Remote, United Kingdom Remote, London, Dublin, Ireland Remote

SoSafe has the ambition to become the leading human risk management provider in Europe. Our award‑winning awareness platform triggers behavioural change by providing effective and engaging training and simulations on cybersecurity and data protection. Cybercrime is costing the world >$10 trillion annually and growing by 15% p.a. - we invite you to be part of the solution!

Here’s how you’ll make a difference:

Lead the design and delivery of SoSafe’s Agentic AI Platform, laying the foundation for how AI is built and used across all product teams.

Translate SoSafe’s AI strategy into concrete, production‑ready platform capabilities that enable faster, safer, and more scalable innovation.

Build and guide a hands‑on engineering team, staying deeply involved in architecture, coding, reviews, and technical decision‑making.

Enable multiple product domains to reuse shared AI agents, workflows, and infrastructure instead of building in isolation.

Establish strong standards around reliability, observability, privacy, and compliance for all AI‑powered features.

Act as a technical and strategic partner to product, data, and security stakeholders to ensure alignment and adoption.

What makes you a great fit:

You are a hands‑on technical leader who enjoys building platforms and still writes code regularly.

You have experience designing and scaling shared systems used by multiple teams or products.

You are comfortable operating in ambiguous, greenfield environments and turning strategy into execution.

You bring strong architectural thinking and care deeply about quality, scalability, and long‑term maintainability.

You can lead, mentor, and grow engineers while holding a high bar for delivery and ownership.

Experience with AI systems, data platforms, or complex distributed systems is a strong advantage, but curiosity and learning mindset matter just as much.

What we offer*

Wellbeing and financial support: Access to Open Up, corporate discounts

Connection & community: Virtual events, collaborative team activities, and opportunities for local meet‑ups

And the list goes on: Tech equipment, referral bonuses, dog‑friendly HQ
