## Job description

## About CodeRabbit

CodeRabbit is the governance and control layer for agentic software development, helping engineering teams trust the code they ship. AI can generate code faster than people can review and understand it. Teams still need to know whether each change solves the right problem, fits their architecture, and is safe to ship.

We provide independent validation grounded in codebase context and team standards, giving people the evidence they need to judge what should ship. Across Review, Triage, Explain, and Secure, our platform challenges changes before merge, prioritizes pull requests by value, impact, and risk, explains what changed and why it matters, and monitors the codebase for security vulnerabilities after merge.

CodeRabbit serves nearly 20,000 customers and supports approximately 300,000 open-source repositories, performing over 2 million code reviews each week. Our $143M Series C, raised at a $1.5B valuation, supports further product development and international expansion.

## Role overview

We’re hiring a Field CTO with deep engineering experience to represent CodeRabbit’s technology and product vision with enterprise customers and the broader technical community. You’ll earn the trust of CTOs and VPs of Engineering by engaging directly with their architecture, understanding their development workflows, and explaining how CodeRabbit fits into their systems. Reporting to our Co-Founder, you’ll work across Engineering, Product, and our go-to-market teams to help customers understand and adopt new products and capabilities. This is a senior, hands-on role with a global remit, beginning as an individual contributor with the opportunity to help build a regional Field CTO team as CodeRabbit grows.

## What you’ll do

- Lead technical conversations with enterprise executives. Engage CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and senior technical teams in architecture discussions, working sessions, and executive briefings. Build confidence through engineering judgment and a clear understanding of their constraints.
- Represent our technology and roadmap. Explain CodeRabbit’s approach to AI-assisted software development, demonstrate new capabilities, and connect our technical direction to the problems engineering teams face. Clearly distinguish shipped capabilities from future plans.
- Stay close to the code. Build demos and reference implementations, inspect development workflows, and work through integration and deployment trade-offs. Bring practical depth across code review, testing, CI/CD, platform engineering, and application security.
- Guide strategic evaluations and adoption. Partner with Sales, Field Engineering, and Customer Success to define success criteria, resolve technical barriers, and help customers move from evaluation to sustained use. Connect business value assessments to measurable engineering outcomes.
- Build a public technical voice. Represent CodeRabbit at conferences, engineering leadership forums, and customer events. Publish technical perspectives and practical guidance grounded in product knowledge and experience building software.
- Bring field evidence into product decisions. Share recurring patterns, technical constraints, and adoption barriers with Product and Engineering to inform product development and launches.
- Extend the team’s technical reach. Mentor customer-facing colleagues, develop reusable technical materials, and help shape the future regional Field CTO function.

## What you’ll bring

- A strong foundation in software engineering or platform engineering. with experience building and operating production systems and leading engineering teams or major technical initiatives.
- Technical breadth and depth to discuss complex architectures with senior engineers, read and write code, and explain design decisions and trade-offs under scrutiny.
- Experience introducing developer tools or new engineering practices into large organizations, including the workflows, integrations, and organizational changes needed for adoption.
- A record of earning trust with CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and other enterprise technical leaders through practical expertise and sound judgment.
- Experience with enterprise-scale systems and the pace of a growing startup. You can work through ambiguity, take ownership, and build the materials or demonstrations an engagement needs.
- Working knowledge of AI coding assistants or coding agents, software delivery practices, and how teams evaluate generated code for quality and security.
- Clear writing and confident presentation skills, from executive working sessions to conference audiences. You can explain technical details, respond to difficult questions, and make the implications useful to your audience.
- Commercial judgment: the ability to connect technical capabilities to business priorities, define a credible value case, and distinguish measured results from assumptions.
- Ability to work from the San Francisco Bay Area and travel for customer engagements and industry events.

Bonus points for

- Experience as a CTO, Director of Engineering, senior platform leader, or Field CTO with a substantial engineering background.
- Experience bringing developer tools, application security products, or AI capabilities to enterprise engineering teams, including regulated environments.
- A public body of technical work through conference talks, open-source contributions, technical writing, or developer education.
- Experience hiring or mentoring senior technical leaders across regions.

What success looks like Enterprise leaders trust CodeRabbit’s technical approach and understand where it fits in their development practices.
