## Job description

### What is Vetric?

Vetric builds large-scale public data infrastructure.

We provide data pipelines that collect, structure, and deliver high-volume public web data for mission-critical companies operating in cybersecurity, public safety and digital risk protection.

Our systems power platforms that detect bad actors, uncover impersonation and fraud, identify coordinated manipulation, and help public safety organizations respond faster to real-world risks.

We don’t build dashboards, and we don’t sell surface-level insights.

We build stable, production-grade data flows that become part of our customers’ core products, with the real impact of saving lives or protecting major organizations from bad actors.

Operating globally, we serve industry leaders across more than 20 countries who rely on us for scale, reliability, and depth.

### Why Vetric?

Vetric is profitable from day one (fully bootstrapped - we haven’t raised external funding), and we’re building foundational technology - not chasing trends. Because this is infrastructure that matters, we operate with engineering discipline, strong ownership, and long-term thinking.

We’re at a true inflection point: the team is now large enough to require real infrastructure, yet still small enough that what you build will define how things work for the next several years.

This is infrastructure that matters and so is how we operate internally. You’ll be working with a sharp, focused team that takes engineering discipline seriously and is intentionally building an organization that matches the quality of its product.

### Position Overview

As an R&D Director at Vetric, you’ll lead multiple engineering teams and their leaders, owning the technical direction, execution, and organizational development of a critical area within our R&D organization.

You’ll be responsible for translating company priorities into an effective engineering strategy, building strong teams and leaders, and ensuring we deliver scalable, reliable systems at high velocity.

You’ll work closely with R&D leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to shape priorities, drive execution across teams, and continuously improve our engineering organization, architecture, and production excellence.

### Responsibilities

- Lead and scale engineering teams and leaders, developing strong Team Leads and engineers while building a culture of ownership, accountability, collaboration, and continuous growth.

- Own the engineering strategy and technical direction for your domain, translating business and product priorities into clear technical priorities, architecture decisions, and execution plans.

- Drive execution across multiple teams, ensuring effective prioritization, alignment, and delivery of complex initiatives while managing dependencies and removing organizational and technical blockers.

- Own production excellence and system reliability, driving high standards around scalability, performance, observability, incident management, and continuous improvement of our production environment.

- Drive engineering excellence across the group, establishing and continuously improving standards and practices around architecture, development processes, code quality, and operational readiness.

- Own organizational and capacity planning for the group, including team structure, hiring, resource allocation, and developing future technical and managerial leaders.

- Partner with stakeholders across the company, including Product, Customer Success, and company leadership, to ensure engineering priorities are aligned with customer needs and broader business objectives.

- Drive measurable impact, using data and engineering metrics to evaluate priorities, improve execution, and ensure resources are focused on the areas that create the greatest impact.

### Requirements

- 8+ years of software engineering experience, with significant experience building backend and large-scale production systems.

- 4+ years of engineering leadership experience, including experience leading multiple teams and managing or mentoring engineering leaders.

- Strong technical background in modern backend architecture, distributed systems, and high-scale, high-performance environments.

- Experience developing backend services with TypeScript and Node.js.

- Strong hands-on understanding of cloud infrastructure, preferably AWS, as well as CI/CD and modern production environments.

- Proven experience driving complex technical initiatives across multiple teams from strategy and architecture through execution and production.

- Strong ability to balance technical excellence, delivery speed, business priorities, and long-term scalability.

- Impact-driven mindset, with the ability to use data to prioritize effectively, measure outcomes, and maximize the impact of engineering resources.

- Excellent leadership and communication skills, with the ability to influence technical and business stakeholders and create alignment across teams.

- Creative and solution-oriented, with a strong sense of ownership and a “can-do” attitude. Comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment, making decisions under uncertainty, and adapting quickly to changing business needs.

- Passion for data and for building reliable, high-scale infrastructure.

**Live in Vetric’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
