Who We Are
Emergence is a thematic holding company backed by the Pritzker Organisation focused exclusively on acquiring and scaling category-defining software businesses. We combine operational rigour with a growth equity mindset, driving sustainable ARR growth, profitability improvements, and industry-leading customer outcomes across our portfolio.
The Mission
You're the technical backbone of Emergence's engineering team, the person who makes architectural calls, drives how the team works, and keeps quality and velocity high as we build AI-powered products across a growing B2B SaaS portfolio. You work directly with the Product leads on what gets built. You own how it gets built.
What You'll Do
Own all architectural decisions across Node 20, Express, and TypeScript — accountable for production outcomes
• Write and review production code regularly — estimated 40–60% of your time, with the remainder owning architectural oversight, resource allocation, and technical coordination across the stack
• Define engineering standards across the team: code review gates, testing coverage,



observability requirements, and incident post-mortems
• Lead technical decisions on LLM workflows, RAG pipelines, MCP integrations, and AI cost management
• Own the integration layer between the Node/TypeScript backend and Python automation layer, preventing cascading failures
• Drive infrastructure maturity with the DevOps Engineer: IaC standards, observability baselines, AWS ECS Fargate migration
• Own how the engineering team operates — allocate technical resources across workstreams, sequence priorities, remove blockers, and ensure the team is running at full technical capacity
• Identify and resolve technical debt proactively through architecture reviews and refactoring sprints
• Communicate architectural trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders, translating constraints into business impact
• Serve as the technical counterpart to Product leads — translate business direction into engineerin
