About Autocash AI

At Autocash AI, we’re on a mission to reinvent how finance teams manage money. Our AI-powered SaaS platform helps mid-sized businesses take control of their cash flow, accounts receivable, and working capital — areas that are traditionally manual, error-prone, and stressful.

We’re not just another fintech tool. We’re building a category-defining platform that combines the power of AI, automation, and real-time analytics to give CFOs and finance leaders clarity, speed, and confidence in decision-making.

Autocash AI is already trusted by forward-thinking companies, and we’re backed by a team of experienced practitioners and advisors from the worlds of treasury, SaaS, and AI. As we expand globally, our India engineering hub will be the backbone of our innovation and growth.

This is your chance to own the technology charter from the ground up, work on cutting-edge problems in AI and fintech, and scale a product that will define the future of financial automation.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Head of Engineering – AI-Powered Fintech SaaS to lead our India engineering team (10–25 engineers, scaling further). This is a hands-on leadership role requiring a deep technical background and proven ability to design and operate scalable, secure, and resilient systems.

You’ll define our engineering strategy, build robust processes, and ensure our SaaS platform grows smoothly with customer adoption.

  • Contribute to coding, architecture reviews, and prototyping.
  • Lead technical deep dives and ensure high code quality.
  • Design for scalability, resilience, monitoring, and observability.
  • Establish performance benchmarks and capacity planning for growth.
  • Ensure robust security and compliance (SOC 2, data privacy, fintech standards).
  • Recruit, mentor, and grow a team of engineers into a high-performing org.
  • Set up Agile processes, CI / CD pipelines, QA automation, and release management.
  • Create a strong engineering culture of ownership, accountability, and innovation.
  • Partner with product and business leadership to align the technical roadmap with customer needs.
  • Represent engineering in front of clients, partners, and investors when required.

What skills do you need?

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
  • 6-10 years in software engineering, with at least 4+ years in leadership.
  • Proven experience designing and scaling SaaS systems (fintech or B2B SaaS strongly preferred).
  • Strong hands-on expertise with : Python (backend, APIs, workflows), React (frontend), AWS (cloud-native), Postgres (databases).
  • Experience with AI / ML integration into SaaS workflows, multi-tenant design, data pipelines, and microservices.
  • Familiarity with observability tools (logging, metrics, tracing).
  • Ability to balance hands-on technical depth with leadership, process, and scaling.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Why will you love to work with us?

  • High-Growth Opportunity – Join an early-stage SaaS startup at a pivotal moment, with the chance to shape both the product and the company.
  • Work on AI + Fintech at Scale – Build cutting-edge systems where AI and financial automation intersect.
  • True Ownership – Lead the India engineering hub, make architectural decisions, and build processes from the ground up.
  • Equity Upside – Share in the value you help create with meaningful stock options.
  • Global Exposure – Collaborate with a U.S.-based leadership team and advisors with deep experience in treasury, SaaS, and AI.
  • What We Offer?
