Chief Technology Officer (CTO) – Blockchain & Web3

About Evatt AI

Evatt AI is a scale‑up on a mission to make advanced legal reasoning and document understanding accessible through natural language. Over the past two years we’ve combined vector search and large language models to give lawyers instant access to case law and legislation. We’re entering a new expansion phase: building an all‑in‑one legal workplace platform that unifies a searchable casebase (like AustLII/Jade.io), agentic workflows, practice management tools and Microsoft Word integrations—delivering the AI assistance analogous to Harvey with the casebase power of Lexis AI+. To achieve this, we’re growing our development team in Bangalore and seeking a Head of Engineering who can own the technical vision and build out our team in India.

CTO + CoFounder wanted for our Tech startup where we're trying to build Connected Mobility in parallel to a "short videos app" meant for dashcam videos getting recorded straight from the user's smartphone. So you can say we're a TikTok of dashcam videos at the front.

Expecting the individual is capable & willing to work on these below languages-

Our backend codes are in CakePHP,
Admin Panel in Laravel,
Android is in Java.
No iOS app yet but we plan to roll it out soon.

Hence, we're expecting the CTO to be having fair idea/expertise about these languages. Also, we don't have an iOS app at this point, but it would be benefecial if there's a fair knowledge about iOS apps as well. Also, since the server being used is AWS we are hoping the person knows how to efficiently utilize various features of the same while linking the things.

Proposed Salary may be available only after angel investor, VCs come on board.
