Vice President, Software Engineering & AI
Full time / Permanent / Sydney, Australia (Hybrid)
Job Description
VP of Engineering
Full-time | Hybrid | Sydney
The Company
Checkbox is a Series A Sequoia‑backed technology start‑up with a mission to enable meaningful work for all. To achieve this, we built a no‑code automation platform with the belief that the power of digital creation needs to be accessible to everyone, not just IT teams. Seeing non‑technical users surprisingly delighted when they use our technology to create in ways they never thought they ever could motivate us. Whilst our mission is big, our focus is sharp. Today we’re focused on in‑house legal departments from companies including Disney, Elastic, J Frog, SAP and Coca‑Cola.
Recently, we expanded our offering to not only help people do meaningful work, but manage it too. This came with the launch of our AI‑powered Intake & Matter Management product – the “JIRA for lawyers”. This is part of our broader vision to be the “Legal Service Hub” for organizations, responsible for how legal work is raised, allocated, managed, and resolved. We believe that one day the Legal Service Hub will be as ubiquitous for legal teams as the CRM for commercial teams and we will win this category.
You’ll work alongside team members across the United States, Australia, and Asia, collaborating with incredible high performers and Co‑Founders in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. Our culture is one of our superpowers. It's what people talk about when they join us, work with us, and leave us. Read about what makes all of us a "Checkmate" here:
The Position
We’re looking for a VP of Engineering to be the technical leader at Checkbox, reporting to the founders & working closely with them to translate the product vision into a technical reality & plan. You will be joining Checkbox at a critical juncture in our growth journey with many challenges to overcome. We plan to double or triple our EPD team size over the next 1‑2 years, while navigating rapidly evolving expectations around AI products & enabling technologies, paying down meaningful technical & product debt while continuing to innovate for our customers.
Working with the world’s largest enterprises means that we need to deal with substantial compliance, security & privacy considerations as well as a high degree of complexity in the product domains.
AI is a core part of our product strategy, and you will need to be able to navigate & adapt quickly as the landscape evolves while creating the right technical foundation for building robust, effective & innovative AI products. We also want AI to transform the way we operate as an organization as well, and you will champion & encourage the use of AI throughout the engineering organization.
