About The Position

Beast Industries is seeking a Director of Engineering to lead core engineering efforts in an AI-first rebuild of a company with a massive existing audience of over 100M+ users. This is a unique opportunity to build a modern tech stack from scratch without legacy constraints, focusing on creating the future of the creator ecosystem. The role involves building and scaling foundational services and platforms for exceptional consumer and creator experiences, developing a privacy-safe data foundation for personalized experiences, and owning the AI roadmap across design, product, and engineering.

Requirements

  • AI-Native: You are already “burning through tokens” and using AI coding agents daily to multiply your output.
  • Battle-Tested: You have seen FAANG-level scale but retain the hands-on mindset of a startup founder.
  • Product Owner: You have a track record of shipping consumer-facing products and services at scale (1M+ users).
  • Leader: You can operate in high ambiguity and are known for attracting and developing top-tier talent.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as a key engineering leader, establishing the technical culture, hiring bar, and organizational structure from the ground up.
  • Partner closely with design and cross-functional leadership to drive rapid, AI-first product development.
  • Own the technical roadmap for products and services used by millions, driving from concept to launch with a clear sense of urgency.
  • Build and scale a world-class engineering organization — starting with a foundational squad and growing into a high-performing, multi-team org over time.
  • Set the standard for how engineering is done here: AI tooling, coding agents, and modern development practices are the baseline, not the exception.
  • Attract, develop, and retain top-tier engineering talent, creating an org that becomes known as a destination for the best builders in the industry.
  • Build and evolve consumer-facing applications and core services with the potential to reach 100M+ people.
  • Develop a privacy-safe data foundation that enables deep audience understanding and powers exceptional, personalized experiences — directly and in partnership with our partners.
  • Own the roadmap for AI across design, product, and engineering, including how we test and deploy new capabilities to improve and automate engineering, creative, and back-office workflows.

Benefits

  • Competitive Salary
  • Generous Medical (Blue Cross Blue Shield), Dental, Vision and company-paid Life Insurance
  • Company contributions to employee Health Savings Accounts (HSA)
  • 401k Plan with Safe Harbor company-matching
  • Flexible vacation policy and paid company holidays
  • Company-provided technology package
  • Relocation assistance where applicable, including travel and company-provided housing for the first 90 days
