Position Overview
As Chief Technology Officer, you will lead the architecture, development, and execution of GrabAGun’s end-to-end technology ecosystem across eCommerce, internal operations, and the PEW Logistics platform. This is a hands-on, builder-first role for a technical leader who has scaled systems inside high-performance environments and can translate modern technologies, including AI-enabled development workflows, into real business outcomes. You will partner closely with executive leadership to drive innovation, increase operational efficiency, and build a scalable, secure, and compliant technology foundation that supports rapid growth.
What You’ll Own
- Define and execute the company’s technology strategy and roadmap across eCommerce, logistics, and internal systems
- Lead and mentor a high-performing engineering organization, establishing best practices in architecture, development, and deployment
- Act as a hands-on technical leader, contributing to system design, code reviews, and critical builds when needed
- Drive the evolution of a scalable, high-availability eCommerce platform capable of handling high transaction volume
- Oversee development and expansion of PEW Logistics, supporting manufacturers and compliance-heavy workflows
- Build and optimize AI-driven development workflows, leveraging modern tools to accelerate engineering velocity and reduce costs
- Partner with Finance, HR, and Operations to automate and streamline internal systems and workflows
- Ensure security, compliance, and audit readiness across all systems (SEC, ATF/FBI considerations where applicable)
- Establish robust data architecture and reporting infrastructure to support real-time decision-making
- Evaluate, implement, and manage infrastructure, cloud environments, and IT systems
What You Bring
- Proven experience as a senior technical leader (CTO, VP Engineering, or similar) in a high-growth or complex environment
- Strong background as a hands-on software engineer, with the ability to go deep technically when needed
- Experience working within or alongside large-scale technology organizations (Big Tech or equivalent environments)
- Demonstrated success leading and scaling engineering teams and distributed systems
- Deep understanding of modern software architecture, APIs, and high-performance web applications
- Strong working knowledge of cloud infrastructure, Dev Ops, and system reliability
- Practical experience leveraging AI tools (e.g., code generation, copilots, workflow automation) to improve development efficiency
Bonus If You Have
- Experience with eCommerce platforms and/or marketplace systems (strongly preferred)
- Exposure to logistics, supply chain, or SaaS platforms (highly preferred)
- Background in IT infrastructure and systems management, not just software engineering
- Experience operating in regulated or compliance-heavy environments is a major plus
What Success Looks Like
- Engineering velocity increases through AI-assisted development and improved workflows
- Core platforms (eCommerce + PEW Logistics) become more scalable, reliable, and feature-rich
- Internal systems across HR, Finance, and Operations become automated, integrated, and audit-ready
- Technology becomes a strategic differentiator, not just a support function
- The organization is equipped with a future-proof, secure, and data-driven tech stack
Why This Role Matters
This role is critical to transforming technology into a core driver of growth, efficiency, and competitive advantage. You will directly influence how the business scales, how decisions are made, and how customers and partners experience the platform.
