About Ludus AI

Ludus AI is already empowering over 26 000 Unreal Engine developers worldwide with advanced AI tools for C++, Blueprint, and 3D asset generation directly inside the engine.

We are an ambitious, fully funded startup building the future of game dev — and we want you to be a part of this.

Why this role exists

We are looking for a CTO who will be a true co-driver of the company’s success. This is a high-trust leadership role for a technical visionary who understands the market, can scale a startup, and connects business outcomes with technology choices. You will bridge the gap between high-level strategy and hands‑on execution, ensuring our team stays focused on the goals that move the needle.

What you will do

  • Technical Strategy: Own the technical roadmap and architecture across the entire product (UE5 plugin + Python backend/AI services + Web stack for user facing interfaces).

  • Strategic Leadership: Co‑lead the company with the CEO, translating business vision into executable milestones and measurable outcomes.

  • Engineering Excellence: Set and enforce high engineering standards (quality, reviews, testing, release discipline) to ensure speed without sacrificing reliability.

  • Team Scaling: Lead, mentor, and grow our engineering team; own the hiring and onboarding processes for future talent.

  • Global Engagement: Represent Ludus AI in front of investors, enterprise clients, and global partners (gamedev and beyond).

  • Risk Management: Mitigate technical debt and manage security, performance, and long‑term maintainability.

  • Culture Architect: Foster a healthy, ambitious, and transparent engineering culture.

  • Hand‑on development: When required, you are not afraid to get hands‑on with a variety of different challenges in multiple coding languages.

Requirements

  • Expertise: 7+ years of experience in technical leadership, with mandatory expertise in Unreal Engine and a solid background in AI and Python environments.

  • Leadership Track Record: Proven experience leading engineering teams and shipping complex production software.

  • Architectural Vision: Strong system design skills across both product logic and scalable infrastructure.

  • Hands‑on Mindset: Willingness to "get into the trenches" when needed, especially in our lean, high‑speed environment.

  • Startup DNA: Experience in scaling teams and processes from early stage to growth.

  • Business Orientation: Ability to make difficult trade‑offs to ensure product‑market fit and business wins.

  • Communication: Exceptional English (C1/C2) is a must – you will work daily with global investors and industry giants. Język Polski jest wymagany.

Nice to have

  • Deep roots in the Unreal Engine ecosystem or game developer tools market.

  • Experience with AI‑enabled SaaS products.

  • Experience scaling infrastructure for high‑traffic global platforms.

What we offer

  • Real Ownership: Equity option (ESOP) available for the right partner.

  • Direct Impact: Direct connection to the biggest names in the Game Dev industry and global enterprise partners.

  • Stability: Fully funded startup with a proven product‑market fit and global ambitions.

  • Total Autonomy: One weekly sync, no micro‑management, 100% remote (anywhere).

  • Flexible Schedule: You are the master of your own time.

  • Great Atmosphere: A small, tight‑knit crew of passionate individuals who value changing the world while having a blast.
