Job Description

OpenMetal is seeking a visionary Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead our technology strategy and execution. This leader will oversee Software Development, Cloud System Engineering, Customer / Solutions / Engineering Support, and Data Center Automation functions, while also helping shape the future of OpenMetal as a disruptive force in bare metal automation and private cloud innovation.

We’re especially interested in candidates who have experience as a founder or early executive, with a track record of scaling a company, growing revenue, and building high-performing teams in fast-paced environments.

OpenMetal is still in its startup phase but has already experienced rapid growth since launch. We need a leader who thrives in entrepreneurial settings, knows how to turn vision into execution, and can help us cement our position as the go-to platform for private cloud innovation.

Have a quick question for our leadership? Connect with our CEO, Todd Robinson on LinkedIn.

Position Responsibilities :

  • Guide architecture and development of our automated bare metal and private cloud platform focusing on continuous improvement and scalability as it relates to performance, security, and automation capabilities.
  • Lead, inspire, and mentor Engineering, Software, Support, and Infrastructure teams to achieve ambitious goals.
  • Encourage and establish best practices, including leveraging appropriate AI enabled approaches.
  • Guide the scaling of products, revenue, and operations—drawing from your own entrepreneurial and scaling experience.
  • Identify, prioritize, and implement new features and enhancements to our Private Clouds and Bare Metal.
  • Actively participate in the sales process when dictated by scope, complexity, or scale of a prospect.
  • Oversee implementation of industry standards for data privacy, security, and compliance among technical teams and initiatives.
  • Build and refine customer feedback loops that drive product improvements and market differentiation.
  • Lead from the front—rolling up your sleeves when needed. This is a high-growth startup, and agility is key.

Qualifications Needed :

  • Proven experience as a founder, co-founder, or early-stage leader who has scaled a business and contributed directly to revenue growth.
  • Deep understanding of cloud infrastructure and automation is critical. Experience in core technologies including OpenStack and Ceph highly preferred.
  • Demonstrated success scaling cloud-native platforms including networking, storage, and compute.
  • Strong record of building and growing engineering teams in high-growth, high-pressure environments.
  • Experience with API-first development principles and modern software architecture.
  • Meaningful interest and practical experience in leveraging AI / ML for development acceleration.
  • Strong analytical, creative thinking, and sales acumen.
  • Exceptional project management and organizational skills with a focus on execution and alignment with company goals.
  • Why Choose OpenMetal?

    At OpenMetal, this is more than just a CTO role—it’s an opportunity to shape the trajectory of a high-growth company while contributing to the open source community.

    We are committed to education, collaboration, and innovation, and believe that our efforts will accelerate technological progress for all. Originally incubated at InMotion Hosting, OpenMetal now operates independently but benefits from decades of operational experience and insights.

    OpenMetal also offers :

  • Remote and hybrid work opportunities
  • Customizable 401(k) plans that include company matching
  • Medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance
  • Paid time off and company paid holidays
  • Reimbursement for tuition, certifications, or professional memberships
  • Additional paid time off to volunteer in your community
  • Significant opportunities for professional growth and advancement
  • Wellness initiatives
  • The chance to be a part of a team energized by a shared passion for growth
  • OpenMetal is committed to offering equal employment opportunity without regard to age, color, disability, gender, gender identity, genetic information, marital status, military status, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristics.
