Are you an engineering leader who has scaled a SaaS organization through managers and turned AI-assisted development into measurable results?

CXT Software provides the technology backbone for courier, route delivery, and healthcare logistics companies. Our customers run their daily physical operations on our software, so reliability, predictable delivery, and strong regression control are not optional.

We are looking for an AI-Native VP of Software Engineering to lead our engineering and SaaS operations organization end to end and to define how it builds and runs software in the AI era. You will own people, architecture, quality, delivery, production reliability, and customer outcomes. Our stack is .NET, C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, Angular, SQL, MAUI, and Azure PaaS.

Reporting to the CTO, you will shape how we build and run software with AI, verify adoption through real behavior rather than dashboards, and shape its evolution with evidence. You will be measured on quality, reliability, cycle time, predictability, and customer impact.

If you want to lead a serious engineering organization and define how it works with AI, we would love to hear from you.
