💡 The Opportunity

We are launching a new venture in the EdTech AI space, and we're looking for a Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead product & tech strategy and development from day one. Our vision is to make tutorship effective and accessible for all, by delivering a highly personalized, engaging, and efficient learning experience, powered by AI.

This is a unique opportunity to co-build a company with us from the ground up, backed by the resources, expertise, and network of Antai Ventures.

As a co-founder, you’ll be in the driver’s seat—shaping the vision, setting the pace, and taking ownership. In return, we’ll back you with capital and provide hands-on support across Product, Tech, Design, GTM, Legal, Talent, Finance, and Fundraising to accelerate your journey from 0 to 1.

🛠️ What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with the co-founders and executive team to define the product’s technical vision and roadmap, ensuring alignment with business strategy.

• Build and lead a world-class engineering team across backend, frontend, and data—fostering a cloud-native, continuous delivery mindset and ensuring professional growth.

• Architect a scalable, resilient, and secure technology platform with freedom to choose between monolith, microservices, serverless, and other modern patterns.

• Select the right technology stack for both backend and frontend applications, optimizing for speed, reliability, and scalability.

• Lead development with strong knowledge of software design principles, particularly Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and SOLID principles.

• Oversee the design and deployment of a robust data processing pipeline, managing ingestion, transformation, and storage for high-volume use cases.

• Champion engineering excellence, continuous improvement, and agile methodologies across the product lifecycle.

• Act as a tech-business bridge, communicating complex ideas clearly to non-technical stakeholders and collaborating closely with the CEO and executive team.

• Foster a culture of curiosity, ownership, and proactive problem-solving across the tech team.

🔍 What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of experience as a Software Engineer, ideally in backend technologies (Java/Spring or PHP/Symfony preferred).

• Proven leadership experience as a Tech Lead or CTO in a startup or fast-growing digital company.

• Strong grasp of Cloud Native environments: Docker, Kubernetes, microservices, service mesh, infrastructure-as-code.

• Expertise in designing and scaling data architectures, including pipelines for stream/batch processing and data warehousing.

• Deep understanding of software architecture, testing, design patterns, and team workflows in agile development environments.

• Track record of hiring, mentoring, and scaling high-performing engineering teams.

• Entrepreneurial mindset and hands-on, get-it-done approach.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills—able to translate tech into business.

• Fluency in both English and Spanish.

• Bonus: Experience in EdTech or similar consumer products and building AI-first digital products.

🤝 What We Offer

• A unique opportunity to co-found a startup with a de-risked path and the backing of a successful venture studio.

• Access to Antai’s full operator team across Product, Engineering, Design, Legal, Talent, GTM, Fundraising, and more.

• Strong equity stake in the company and the opportunity to get equity in other start-ups in our portfolio.

• Being part of Antai’s ecosystem of serial entrepreneurs and top-tier investors.

• Office space in Barcelona, Madrid, and Mexico City.
