Tech Lead / Future CTO – AI for Planetary Decisions

Build the AI engine that helps businesses make smarter choices for the planet. We’re looking for a Tech Lead who wants to architect, build, and scale the next generation of AI-powered sustainability systems — tools that help thousands of small and mid-sized companies understand their impact and make better decisions for the planet. This is a role for someone who thrives in the space between AI engineering, systems architecture, and hands-on product development.  Someone who wants ownership. Someone who wants responsibility.  Someone who wants to build the machine, not just code inside it. If you enjoy switching between reasoning models, agents, knowledge graphs, vector stores, API integrations, and front-end logic — and you’re motivated by real-world impact — you’ll feel at home here. Sustainability experience is not required, but curiosity for planetary challenges is a strong plus. We build technology that shapes real decisions — in procurement, strategy, emissions, resource use, risk management — and you’ll be a core part of making that possible.


What you will do

  • Own and evolve Scopes’ AI architecture — from ingestion and retrieval to analysis, reasoning, and automated workflows

  • Build and refine our multi-agent system for ESG/CSRD decision support

  • Develop new AI capabilities: sanity filters, cluster-breakers, validation models, orchestrators and more

  • Work closely with design, ESG experts and founders to translate complex sustainability frameworks into scalable, intelligent systems

  • Shape our long-term technical roadmap and lead the way toward a full CTO role

  • Help build a clean, modern, testable codebase you’ll be proud of


What we’re looking for

  • Deep understanding of modern AI stacks (LLMs, RAG, embeddings, vector stores, agents, orchestration frameworks)

  • Strong architectural mindset — you understand how systems fit together

  • Comfortable moving between hands-on coding and high-level technical strategy

  • Strong TypeScript skills (or ability to pick it up fast)

  • Curiosity for complex domains and ability to turn messy inputs into elegant systems

  • Bonus: experience with reasoning engines, knowledge graphs, or AI safety/logical validation


Our current tech stack

  • Next.js (TypeScript)

  • Supabase (Postgres)

  • Vercel

  • Clerk

  • Stripe  Vercel AI SDK

  • OpenAI models

  • Roaring API

  • GitHub CI/CD with Vitest


What we offer

  • A clear path toward a CTO role

  • Equity options after 12 months

  • Hybrid location: Sweden-based in Stockholm, Visby or Åre or remote

  • A purposeful, interdisciplinary team driven by clarity, impact, and real-world problem-solving

  • The opportunity to build something that matters — not just to users, but to the planet

  • Post seed financing, full speed toward an A round investment, good traction with customers


We strongly encourage female candidates to apply.
