Ctruh is a deep-tech company building the infrastructure layer for the spatial internet through a proprietary browser-native, no-code 3D engine and VersaAI, our in-house generative AI engine that transforms text, images, and video into production-ready 3D assets in minutes.

Role Details :

Role : Engineering Manager/Director of Engineering

Experience : 8 - 14 years

Location : Bangalore (Onsite)

About Us :

Our Work Rhythm :

This is a 6-day working setup with Monday to Friday operating from office and Saturday as Work From Home (WFH). We believe this model enables stronger collaboration, faster learning, and better team alignment while maintaining flexibility.

Ctruh is hiring a hands-on Director of Engineering who codes, architects systems, and builds teams. You'll set the technical foundation, drive engineering excellence, and own the architecture of our AI, 3D, and XR platform.

This is not a pure management role - expect to spend 50 - 60% of your time writing code, solving deep technical problems, and owning mission-critical systems. As we scale, this role transitions into CTO, taking full ownership of technical vision and long-term strategy.

About the Role :

What You'll Own :

- Architect and scale Ctruh's platform across frontend, backend, infrastructure, AI, and 3D systems, while driving technology choices, architecture decisions, and engineering standards.

- Lead the design of high-performance rendering, 3D asset processing, real-time systems, and AI/ML deployment pipelines.

- Write production-grade code across the stack, build critical features, optimize performance, and solve complex technical challenges hands-on.

- Develop and scale backend services, WebGL/Three.js workflows, cloud infrastructure, and AI-powered product capabilities.

- Hire, mentor, and grow a high-performing engineering team, establishing strong engineering culture, best practices, and career development frameworks.

- Drive agile execution, code quality, deployment processes, incident management, and continuous improvement across the organization.

Must-Haves :

- 8+ years of engineering experience, with 3 - 4 years in technical leadership.

- Deep full-stack experience with strong system design fundamentals.

- Proven success building products from 0 - 1 in fast-paced environments.

- Hands-on expertise with React/Next.js, Node.js, and AWS.

- Ability to design scalable architectures for high-performance systems.

- Strong people leadership with experience hiring and mentoring teams.

- Ready to code, review, design, and lead from the front.

- Startup mindset: fast execution, problem-solving, ownership.

Good-to-Have :

- AI/ML deployment experience (CV, generative AI, 3D reconstruction).

- Strong 3D graphics/WebGL/Three.js knowledge.

- Experience with real-time systems, rendering optimizations, or large-scale pipelines.

- Background in B2B SaaS, XR, gaming, or immersive tech.

- Experience scaling engineering teams from 5 - 20+.

- Open-source contributions or technical content creation.

- Experience working closely with founders or executive leadership.

What You Bring :

- Partner closely with Product, Design, and Leadership teams to shape roadmaps, evaluate feasibility, prioritize initiatives, and translate business goals into technical execution.

- Support customer-facing initiatives, integrations, and strategic technical discussions with internal and external stakeholders.

- Own engineering operations including CI/CD, testing, monitoring, logging, cloud infrastructure, security, reliability, documentation, and developer productivity.

- Frontend : React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, WebGL, Three.js

- Backend : Node.js, Python, Express, FastAPI, REST, GraphQL

- AI/ML : PyTorch, TensorFlow, Computer Vision, Stable Diffusion, LLMs

- 3D & Graphics : Three.js, WebGL, Babylon.js, glTF, USDZ

- Databases : MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis

- Cloud & Infrastructure : AWS, Docker, Kubernetes

- CI/CD & Monitoring : GitHub Actions, Datadog, Sentry

Why Join Ctruh :

Ctruh offers the opportunity to solve challenging engineering problems at the intersection of AI, 3D, XR, and web technologies while building products, architecture, and engineering culture from the ground up.

You'll work closely with the founders, enjoy significant autonomy in shaping technical decisions, and operate in a high-ownership, high-growth environment with a clear path toward future CTO leadership. The company is backed by global technology leaders including Microsoft, Google, NVIDIA, and AWS.

Who Will Thrive Here :

You're an engineer at heart and a leader by instinct. You love coding as much as architecting systems. You balance speed with quality, innovate fearlessly, and thrive in ambiguity.

You can :

- Architect microservices in the morning

- Review mission-critical PRs at noon

- Build a Three.js shader in the afternoon

- Run an engineering standup in the evening

You've experienced both the pain of poor architecture and the joy of elegant systems - and know how to build things that scale. If you geek out over AI/ML pipelines, 3D rendering, WebGL performance, or building engineering orgs from scratch, you'll love Ctruh.

Proudly built with in India.
