About ADGENTIC

ADGENTIC is the world’s first AI-powered platform built specifically for advertising.

Our intelligent agents support brands and agencies across the entire campaign lifecycle - from research and strategy to creation, compliance, and performance. We are not a typical startup. We are a team of industry experts who have built and scaled global marketing networks.

Now we’re building something bigger - a next-generation platform that will redefine how the creative industry works with AI.

Our vision: to become the operating system of modern advertising.

Smart. Ethical. Radically efficient.

We are privately funded and scaling fast.

About the Role

We’re looking for a CTO who’s ready to build, lead, and shape our product from the ground up. You’ll have the chance to take ownership of end-to-end development and make a lasting impact in a fast-paced, early-stage startup. As our technical leader, you’ll define our architecture, grow the engineering team, and work closely with the founders and technical advisor to turn vision into reality. This is a remote-first role.

This is your chance to build the foundation of Europe’s next AI unicorn—and own a significant piece of its success.

Your Responsibilities

• Collaborate closely with the founders to bring clarity to requirements, scope, and long-term strategy of the Adgentic platform
• Be responsible for building and scaling a resilient, secure and elegant tech stack
• Define and enforce software engineering best practices, including CI/CD, testing, code quality, and performance optimization
• Recruit, lead, mentor and grow an engineering team that thrives on purpose, curiosity and clean code
• Represent ADGENTIC’s technology vision externally - with partners, clients, investors and broader tech and advertising communities
• Ensure system scalability, data integrity and compliance across markets

Who You Are

• Proven track record as a CTO or in a similar leadership role (SVP / VP) in early-stage startups or scale-ups, ideally you’ve worked on ML/AI powered data products before
• A technical visionary and hands-on builder, able to set architectural direction while staying grounded in the code when needed
• You’re fluent in modern backend and frontend technologies, security best practices, and DevOps
• Solid experiences working with databases, in particular PostgreSQL
• Deep understanding of modern cloud architectures (especially AWS, or Google Cloud Platform)
• Ability to tackle complex technical challenges and deliver elegant solutions
• You enjoy pair programming, writing tests, and crafting clean, maintainable code
• Strong communication and teamwork abilities to work effectively with cross-functional technical teams

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience with Language Models and AI/ML integrations (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral etc.)
• Experience with Vector databases, RAG and semantic search implementation
• Experience with common agent frameworks like PydanticAI, LangChain etc.

Why Join ADGENTIC

• Equity & Ownership: Every leader participates in our stock option plan - you are building your own future here.
• Global Vision: Collaborate with a team of experts from across Europe and beyond.
• Remote-first, high-trust culture: Work from anywhere, focus on outcomes, not office hours.
• Influence & Impact: You’ll be a key architect of our technology, culture, and future.
• Unicorn trajectory: Be part of a company built to scale and succeed fast.
