Head of Engineering

Get Licensed has a brand new sister company - GLOME which is building the next generation of hyper‑local community safety : real‑time patrol visibility, rapid incident response, neighbourhood intelligence, and a deeply human connection between residents and the first responders who protect them.

Our platform powers safety‑critical, time‑sensitive interactions between homeowners, patrol teams, and operations. Reliability, speed, and trust sit at the core of everything we build.

We are now looking for a Head of Engineering to architect, lead, and scale the technology that underpins a new standard of neighbourhood security.

As Head of Engineering , you will own the entire engineering function — architecture, delivery, reliability, and team growth. This is a hands‑on technical leadership role : you will define the long‑term tech vision while also diving deep into microservices, real‑time systems, scalable backend infrastructure, and integrations with mission‑critical patrol operations.

You must be comfortable building high‑availability systems where failures have real‑world consequences. GLOME’s ecosystem includes mobile apps, IoT‑style data from patrol vehicles, live mapping, incident workflows, and AI‑driven safety intelligence.

If you enjoy building from the ground up, designing systems that must never fail, and leading teams in an ambitious, fast‑moving environment — you’ll thrive here.

What you will be doing :

• Define and own GLOME’s engineering vision, architecture, and long‑term technical roadmap.
• Architect distributed, microservices‑based systems optimized for real‑time communication, high uptime, and safety‑critical reliability.
• Ensure security best practices, data integrity, and robust failover strategies across all components.
• Lead technical decisions around mobile, backend, real‑time messaging, geospatial systems, and patrol‑car integrations.

Expected Behaviours

We're primarily non‑hierarchical, allowing all our colleagues to take responsibility from day one. We are committed to achieving excellence whilst having fun and being highly curious. We are passionate about hiring fantastic individuals who thrive in an open, fast‑paced and collaborative environment, are accountable to themselves, and are willing to roll their sleeves up to get stuff done.

There are certain behaviours we expect from our colleagues, and the key ones are below. Fundamentally we expect everyone at Get Licensed to Do The Right Thing. We measure performance against these behaviours as part of each team member’s monthly performance review :
