At Turing, we are building the trust, intelligence, and workflow infrastructure that powers how top global talent gets discovered, evaluated, and hired. We are looking for a highly capable engineering leader to help architect and build a new generation of AI-first vetting systems that improve talent integrity, capability assessment, and hiring experience at scale.

This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering, applied AI, product thinking, and execution. The right person will not just ship isolated features, but build durable systems that can support multiple products and use cases over time.

What you will own:

Build and scale core components of Turing’s vetting platform, with initial focus on:

AI Interviewer

Task-based vetting platform

Fraud and integrity checks

Design platform-level systems rather than siloed point solutions, with strong emphasis on extensibility, reuse, and long-term maintainability

Partner closely with Product, Design, Data, and Operations to translate ambiguous business problems into scalable technical systems

Lead architecture and implementation for high-scale, high-reliability user-facing and internal workflows

Improve system quality across UX, performance, observability, and developer velocity

Help establish technical direction, engineering standards, and execution rigor for a fast-moving, AI-forward org

Mentor engineers and raise the bar on engineering craftsmanship, systems thinking, and speed of execution

What we are looking for:

8+ years of software engineering experience, with strong depth in backend/platform systems

Experience building and scaling complex product or platform systems used in production

Strong systems design skills, with the ability to think in platforms, primitives, and reusable abstractions rather than one-off features

Proven ability to operate in ambiguous environments and convert evolving requirements into clean technical approaches

Strong product instinct and user empathy; able to balance architecture quality with business speed

Experience working on workflow systems, evaluation platforms, marketplaces, trust & safety, identity/fraud, or AI-powered pro
