VP Of Engineering (Remote)

Vietnam · Negotiable

About the Role: We build scalable digital platforms and high-availability operational systems for global clients. We operate with an uncompromising focus on product excellence, engineering quality, speed of execution, and operational clarity. As we scale our platforms across international markets, we are looking for a VP of Engineering to own our technical direction, platform architecture, and end-to-end engineering execution. This role exists to ensure we build the right things, the right way, fast enough to win. You are both a seasoned technical authority and an executive business partner. You will set the engineering benchmark, make tough architectural trade-offs, scale our distributed teams, and ensure we ship high-quality software with velocity and resilience. What You’ll Do: Technical Vision & Architecture: Own the long-term technical roadmap and architectural foundations across web, mobile, distributed backend services, and cloud infrastructure. Engineering Rigor & Standards: Define and enforce high engineering standards across the organization—code maintainability, security, scalability, system reliability, and automated testing. Leadership & Team Growth: Mentor, develop, and hold accountable engineering directors, engineering managers, and staff/principal architects. Build a high-retention, high-performance team culture. Velocity vs. Scalability: Drive pragmatic technical decisions that balance rapid product delivery with system resilience, avoiding short-sighted hacks while preventing over-engineering. Platform Availability & Resilience: Take executive ownership of uptime, disaster recovery, cloud infrastructure costs, and incident response frameworks. Strategic Business Alignment: Partner with Product, Design, and Business leadership to align capacity, sequence roadmaps, and allocate resources against top revenue priorities. Proactive Risk Mitigation: Systematically identify and eliminate technical debt, security liabilities, architectural bottlenecks, and single points of failure before they impact delivery. Executive Representation: Serve as the technical voice on the leadership team, translating complex engineering risks and opportunities into clear business terms. What We’re Looking For: 10+ years of progressive software engineering experience, including 3+ years leading multi-team engineering organizations (VP, Head of Engineering, or Senior Director). Hands-on Technical Roots: You built your career shipping production software; you can evaluate system designs, review architectural trade-offs, and earn the technical respect of senior engineers. Proven Scaling Track Record: Experience scaling systems, infrastructure, and engineering headcount through periods of rapid commercial growth. Full-Stack Architecture Mastery: Deep architectural command across modern distributed backends, scalable databases, microservices / event-driven systems, web/mobile frontends, and cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP). Executive Communication: Exceptional English communication skills, with a proven ability to bridge deep technical discussions with executive business strategy. Uncompromising Standards: High ownership, exceptional attention to detail, and a relentless focus on raising the engineering bar. Employment Terms: Full-time role. Concurrent freelance, part-time work, or consulting engagements are strictly prohibited.
