Lead Architect

Factbird helps manufacturers turn real-time production data into decisions they can actually act on. Since 2016, we've helped manufacturers in 28 countries cut waste, boost uptime, and run smarter — from the shop floor to the boardroom. Over 300 companies trust us to make sense of their operations, and we're a team of 80+ people across Copenhagen and the US who care about making complex things simple.

We're creating a new role at the top of our Engineering career ladder: Lead Architect. It's the senior end of our Technical Track — the rung above Tech Lead — and today it's a role we've deliberately left lightly defined, because we want the first person in it to help define it. You'll set Factbird's technical direction: architecture, tooling, and the multi-year technology bets that shape where the product goes next.

This is our most senior technical role, with no direct reports — your authority comes from judgment and track record, not the org chart. You'll work alongside our Tech Leads in Factbird's technical leadership group, partner closely with our Director of Engineering, and be the person other senior engineers go to when a decision is genuinely hard to reverse.
