About Learnster

At Learnster, we help organizations orchestrate knowledge like a strategic capability. Our AI-powered SaaS platform is used in over 30 countries and trusted by ambitious companies to drive growth, performance, and adaptability through smarter learning. With a bold vision, a fast-scaling business, and a top-ranked product – we are now transforming our R&D leadership to match the next stage of our journey.

As part of this transformation, we are hiring a Head of Engineering to lead our technical execution, delivery capabilities, and engineering organization – with AI as a foundational enabler.

Your Mission

As Head of Engineering, your mission is to build and lead a world-class engineering team that transforms product vision into robust, scalable, and intelligent software. You’ll be responsible for Learnster’s end-to-end technical execution – from architecture and tooling to process, people, and AI-powered product delivery.

You’ll work in close partnership with the CEO and incoming CPO to shape the engineering strategy and culture, ensuring Learnster delivers with speed, stability, and innovation – across both our core platform and next-generation AI initiatives.

You’ll lead by example, not only as a senior engineering leader but as a true Entreprenerd – combining visionary thinking with hands-on execution, speed with structure, and continuous improvement with long-term scalability.

What You’ll Do

• Own the technical strategy and architecture across Learnster’s products.
• Lead the engineering team and its leaders – frontend, backend, QA, and DevOps.
• Drive modern development practices across coding, testing, release, and monitoring.
• Embed AI capabilities into Learnster’s core platform and product strategy.
• Evaluate and integrate technologies such as RAG pipelines, LangChain, and vector databases.
• Build the infrastructure for AI-powered product modules and ML workflows.
• Establish a secure, scalable, and performant cloud-native architecture.
• Build a culture of ownership, quality, and continuous improvement.
• Collaborate closely with Product and Design to ensure delivery is aligned, predictable, and impactful.
• Support recruitment, retention, and development of top-tier engineering talent.

You Might Be a Fit If You…

• Have 10+ years of engineering leadership experience in B2B SaaS environments.
• Have built and scaled high-performing engineering teams with strong process and autonomy.
• Bring deep experience in cloud-native architecture (e.g., AWS, GCP), CI/CD, and DevOps.
• Understand what it takes to go from prototype to production – with security, performance, and reliability in mind.
• Have built production-ready AI applications using frameworks like LangChain, RAG, and vector stores.
• Work fluently with AI dev tools like Cursor, Windsurf, or GitHub Copilot.
• Have hands-on experience with LLM APIs from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini or similar.
• Understand AI as a business enabler – not just a tech feature – and can translate that into product and architecture.
• Thrive in fast-paced, change-oriented environments with global ambitions.
• Are excited by the opportunity to shape an engineering culture where AI is not an add-on – but a core capability.

We’re Especially Interested in Candidates Who…

• Have led engineering through scaling journeys – team, platform, or product.
• Combine strong architectural insight with a pragmatic builder mindset.
• Know what it means to balance innovation with operational maturity.
• Believe in strong documentation, smart automation, and structured operations.
• Identify as Entreprenerd – proactive problem-solvers who move fast with precision and leave nothing to chance.

What We Expect

We’re raising the bar – and we’re looking for someone who does too. In this role, you are expected to:

• Drive results. You don’t just plan – you ship, measure, and improve.
• Move with clarity. You lead with structure, make trade-offs transparent, and never lose technical integrity.
• Inspire trust. Your team, peers, and stakeholders feel confident in your ownership and leadership.
• Lead with curiosity. You seek smarter, faster, more scalable ways of working – and you bring others with you.
• Balance boldness with detail. You think big, but you don’t overlook the edge cases.
• Show up with energy, humility, and a desire to grow – just like the rest of us.

What We Offer

• A central role in shaping Learnster’s future as a leading global learning platform.
• A strong engineering foundation to build upon – and a clear mandate to take it to the next level.
• A product and company that are ready for scale – with hundreds of thousands of users and clear market traction.
• A collaborative, forward-leaning leadership team.
• A hybrid setup with modern offices in central Stockholm (Malmskillnadsgatan 32).
• A company culture that values ownership, experimentation, and shared wins.

What Makes Learnster Unique

Learnster is more than a product. We’re a movement in how organizations treat knowledge. Our customers work with us because we combine strategic thinking, technical excellence, and AI-powered solutions to turn knowledge into business impact. One clear example is Learnster Orchestrator – a pioneering module that empowers knowledge owners to co-create scalable, goal-aligned knowledge initiatives.

We believe great product delivery is a function of great engineering leadership. That’s where you come in.
