Job Title
Site CTO (Indonesia)
Salary
Top-of-market compensation
Location
Indonesia, on-site. Deep on-the-ground Indonesia market experience
Company Description
The client is backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors and is expanding across the world: live in 35+ countries with around 650 people, and a local team in every market it deploys in. It helps large enterprises accelerate AI adoption to unlock their full potential, combining a complete AI operating system with local deployment teams that get AI into production quickly. It reached a $5B valuation in under two years, on more than $800M raised - its valuation went from $2B to $5B in the last six months alone. Indonesia is one of the markets opening now, and this role is its technical leader, on the ground in-market, reporting into the global HQ's C-level.
What You'll Do
- Lead the technical side of sales with Indonesia's largest banks, telcos, and insurers: early conversations, live demos, architecture and security reviews.
- Stay hands-on: ship code and build the first customer integrations yourself.
- Hire and lead the Indonesia delivery team as the market scales, laying its technical foundation.
- Own customer integrations end to end, from scoping to production deployment, and hold the line on accuracy in live environments.
- Be the bridge between Indonesian enterprise reality (language, regulation, infrastructure) and a global product organization.
- Be the local technical face: partnerships, escalations, and the person customers call.
Required Qualifications
- Deep, on-the-ground Indonesia market experience. You have built or sold enterprise technology in Indonesia, not just about it.
- Excellent English; Bahasa Indonesia and/or Mandarin a strong plus.
- Comfortable working closely with a global HQ team, including occasional travel to HQ.
- 8+ years hands-on software engineering. You've shipped things that ran in production, not slide decks about them.
- Proven in pre-sales, solution architecture, or complex technical implementations. You've been in the room when the deal turns technical.
- Customer-facing by background (Site CTO, Solutions Architect, or similar), fluent in both tech and business.
- Leadership DNA at Director, VP, or Founder level.
- Zero-to-one comfortable: you build the plan, the team, and the system with nobody above you to ask.
Nice to Have
- Opened a new market or vertical from zero.
- A network across Indonesian enterprise IT.
- Founded or been early at a company that scaled.
- Enterprise AI or agent deployment experience.
Why Join
- Own a country. Not a team, not a region. The entire technical side of a market, from zero.
- Join a company that went from zero to a $5B valuation in under two years - $2B to $5B in the last six months alone.
- Direct line to the global C-level, with the mandate to decide locally.
- Enterprise AI at the moment it actually lands in production: live in 35+ countries, around 650 people, and agents that resolve more than 80% of the conversations they handle.
