Series Entertainment is looking for a Chief Technology Officer to lead and scale the technical organization behind our next generation of AI-powered entertainment experiences.

Series sits in a unique position between startup velocity and operational maturity. We are a well-capitalized, revenue-generating company with live products and growing teams, while still operating with the speed, ownership, and innovation mindset of a builder-led organization. This role is ideal for a leader who thrives in an environment where foundational decisions still matter and execution has immediate product impact.

The CTO role is primarily a strategic and organizational leadership position. While remaining technically credible and occasionally hands-on, the core responsibility is building strong engineering leadership, setting technical direction, and ensuring our teams are operating at the leading edge of modern development — particularly in AI-enabled workflows.

Reporting to the CEO (currently serving as Interim CTO), this leader will help define how AI transforms the creation of games and interactive entertainment. A central focus will be helping shape and scale Series’ emerging user-generated content and creator platform (RUN) — enabling creators to build games, narrative experiences, and interactive media using AI-powered tools.

The ideal candidate is a strategic technologist and pragmatic operator: someone who elevates teams, modernizes technical approaches, and brings clear perspective on how the next generation of content platforms should be built.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

Technical Leadership & Strategy

- Define and evolve the company’s technical vision in alignment with Series’ AI-first product strategy.

- Establish scalable architecture and engineering practices that support rapid experimentation and long-term growth.

- Act as a technical thought partner to the CEO and executive team.

- Bring informed perspective on the future of creator tools, UGC ecosystems, and AI-assisted content development.

People & Organizational Leadership

- Lead, mentor, and scale a multidisciplinary engineering organization through strong technical leadership layers.

- Coach engineering managers and tech leads in running effective, high-performing teams.

- Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

- Help elevate technical excellence across the company, not just within engineering.

Cross-Functional Partnership

- Partner closely with Product, Design, and Operations leadership to align technical execution with product goals.

- Translate product vision into realistic technical roadmaps and delivery plans.

- Ensure strong communication and shared ownership across departments.

AI Innovation & Thought Leadership

- Drive adoption of modern AI tools and workflows across engineering and adjacent disciplines.

- Help teams stay current with rapidly evolving AI capabilities and apply them pragmatically.
