About Reducto

Reducto helps AI teams ingest real world enterprise data with state of the art accuracy.

The vast majority of enterprise data — from financial statements to health records — is locked in unstructured file formats like PDFs and spreadsheets. We train vision models to read those documents the way a human would, and make it possible to build products, train models, and automate processes at scale.

We’ve grown incredibly quickly, growing revenue by 7x YOY, and now work with hundreds of companies ranging from leading AI teams (Harvey, Vanta, Scale) to enterprise (FAANG, top 3 trading firm).

We're raised over 100M from world class investors like A16z, Benchmark, and First Round Capital, and are hiring a Head of Engineering to help scale our technical organization through a period of rapid growth.

The Role

This is a rare opportunity to join as the senior engineering leader at a well-funded startup that's already gaining traction with leading AI companies.

You’ll work directly with the founders to build a world‑class engineering team, establish scalable processes, and ensure we maintain our high technical bar as we grow from ~15 to 50+ engineers over the next 18‑24 months. This role is perfect for someone who has experienced hypergrowth and is ready to help build it from the ground up.

What You’ll Do

Own engineering execution, accountability, and goal‑setting
Build and scale our hiring process to onboard 2‑3 engineers per month
Establish frameworks for planning, building, and shipping
Partner with our CTO on technical strategy and architecture decisions
Shape the engineering culture and values that will define Reducto for years to come
Tackle major technical and organizational challenges as we scale

What We’re Looking For

You joined an earlier‑stage startup (as one of the first 10‑30 engineers) and rode it through hypergrowth to 100‑200+ people

You saw things break at scale and learned how to fix them—you can look around corners

You have 2‑4+ years of management experience

Before that, you worked at a well‑run, high‑bar company (like Stripe, Dropbox, Airbnb, or similar) where you learned what great engineering culture looks like

You were a strong IC (senior / staff level) before becoming a manager

You Can Demonstrate Impact

You can walk us through specific problems you’ve solved at previous companies

You have stories about when you tried something that didn’t work and what you learned

You can explain your frameworks for hiring, goal‑setting, and execution—and show how you’ve applied them in practice

You can contribute beyond just engineering (e.g., customer insights, product intuition, business strategy)
