• Accelerate innovation by rapidly developing and deploying custom AI‑driven solutions.
• Boost productivity through reusable automation templates that simplify repetitive tasks and decision‑making.
• Stay secure and compliant with enterprise‑grade Azure infrastructure and governance.
• Empower teams to work smarter, faster, and more collaboratively – without needing deep technical AI expertise.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Impact from Day One: Work on a platform that’s already helping enterprises harness AI for speed, precision, and scale.
• Zero Bureaucracy: No red tape. No endless meetings. Just smart people building meaningful solutions.
• Elite Pedigree: Our leadership has spent decades shaping the biggest tech shifts, from the Internet and Cloud to now, AI. All Ex‑New Signature leadership – top tier Microsoft partner.

• A tech stack you’ll love working with: Azure AI Foundry, Azure AI Search, AKS, Python, VS Code (Copilot), Docker, Kubernetes.

As Head of Development, you will

• Own the SDLC end‑to‑end – define, implement, and continually refine agile processes for planning, branching, testing, deployment, and code review.
• Provide technical leadership across multiple product lines, guiding developers and data engineers through architectural decisions and code quality standards.
• Shape the platform architecture, ensuring scalable, secure, cloud‑native design across AI, data, and API layers.
• Mentor and develop the engineering team, fostering a high‑performance culture rooted in accountability, collaboration, and innovation.
• Drive code quality and velocity, implementing modern DevOps and test automation practices (GitHub Actions, CI/CD, Bicep IaC).
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with Product, AI, and Client Delivery teams to turn ideas into robust production features.
• Champion best practices in secure coding, model governance, and responsible AI deployment.
• Represent the engineering function in client and partner discussions – including Microsoft partner engagements and technical audits.

What you’ll bring

• Proven experience leading software teams or acting as principal engineer / lead developer in a high‑growth product or consultancy setting.
• Deep technical experience with Azure’s AI ecosystem (AI Foundry, Azure AI Search, AKS).
• Expertise in Python and C#, with strong architectural understanding of microservices and scalable APIs.
• Hands‑on familiarity with GitHub Actions, Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Ability to design, review, and enforce coding standards and architectural guidelines.
• Strong understanding of SDLC design, QA automation, branching strategy, and release management.
• Excellent communication skills – able to translate complex technical issues for both engineering and business stakeholders.
• A strategic, curious, and pragmatic mindset – comfortable moving between high‑level architecture and hands‑on problem solving.

Why Now? Why Neologik?

The AI adoption curve is steep, and enterprises need help navigating it.

Neologik is scaling fast, demand is surging, and our platform is already powering real‑world automation for leading organisations.

This is your opportunity to define the architecture of a platform that’s transforming enterprise AI – securely, responsibly, and intelligently.
