Head of Engineering

OpenMined
112d

About The Position

If we are successful, you will lead the engineering team to build the public internet for the world’s non-public information — unlocking 1,000,000x more data in every scientific field and industry, and ensuring it is offered to the world as a part of an open, public information network. If the world avoids entrapping its private data in a walled garden, it will avoid this failure because you led an ambitious engineering team to open and de-silo the world’s information. And on the heels of 1,000,000x more data hitting every scientific field and industry, a world-wide innovation boom will owe a debt of gratitude to you, and to the people you led through a challenging technological transition.
