MyCISO is building the SecurityOS for modern security leaders — replacing spreadsheets and fragmented tools with a single platform for risk, compliance, incidents, suppliers, metrics, and culture.
We're looking for a Head of AI Engineering to lead our AI roadmap and manage our outsourced engineering team. This is a rare opportunity to work directly with the CEO and shape how AI is embedded into a real SaaS product solving real customer problems.
The Role
You'll own the technical direction for AI across the MyCISO platform — from architecture and design through to delivery, quality, security, and scale. You'll work closely with leadership and product to identify high-value opportunities, turn them into production-ready features, and ensure our outsourced team delivers at a high standard.
What You'll Do
- Define and lead MyCISO's AI engineering strategy and roadmap.
- Transition and maintain the app into an AI native / AI ready form.
- Design and deliver secure, scalable AI-powered product features.
- Manage and uplift an outsourced engineering team.
- Work with the CEO and Product Owner to prioritise valuable AI use cases.
- Establish standards across architecture, testing, security, observability, and release quality.
- Guide build vs buy decisions across models, tools, and platforms.
What You'll Bring
- Experience leading software engineering teams, including outsourced or distributed teams.
- Experience shipping AI-enabled product features into production.
- Strong architecture capability across backend systems, APIs, cloud, and SaaS products.
- Practical understanding of LLMs, prompt design, retrieval, evaluation, and guardrails.
- Strong communication skills and commercial judgment.
Nice to Have
- Experience in cyber security, GRC, risk, or compliance.
- Experience in B2B SaaS or startup environments.
- Experience with agentic workflows or AI automation.
Why Join Us
- Direct access to the CEO and real influence on product direction.
- Genuine ownership of AI engineering at a growing SaaS company.
- The chance to build meaningful AI in a high-trust domain.
- An ambitious Australian company with global aspirations.
