Enterprise software is being rebuilt around agents. Cortex is our next-generation agentic operating system: the layer where our products, our customers' systems, and AI agents work together. It is one of the company's most important strategic bets.
As Head of Engineering, you build and lead the team that carries it forward: scaling the platform, keeping it secure and dependable, and deciding what it becomes next. We are hiring a builder, not a caretaker.
We build the platform the way our customers will use it: by directing AI agents rather than writing code by hand. Running an engineering team on those terms is a new management problem, and the most interesting part of the job.
This role reports to the VP of Platform Engineering.
Own security, isolation, and production readiness.
Build and lead the team, and set how an agent-first team works.
Own engineering end to end: code review, QA, release, monitoring, incident response, on-call, and the SDLC standards behind them.
Own the platform boundary. Every capability you pull in is one every team gets for free and you maintain forever; every one you leave out gets reinvented differently by each of them. Nobody else makes that call.
Own the area's technical and delivery strategy, hiring, team structure, and budget.

runs the planning decisions behind 600+ retailers and manufacturers worldwide, deciding, at real scale, what gets forecast, stocked, priced, promoted, and produced across the entire value chain. Few problems combine this much data, this much complexity, and this much real-world weight: get it right and a shelf stays stocked, a factory line doesn't stall, food doesn't spoil in a warehouse before it's sold. Get it wrong, and it shows up in actual losses, for some of the largest retail and manufacturing brands in the world.
We've grown for 76 consecutive quarters straight, and it's still accelerating. The first half of 2026 was the strongest in the company's history. We're a team of 2,000+ people, headquartered in Helsinki, with offices across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.
