About CTeBS
CTeBS (Classic Technologies & Business Solutions) is a purpose-built software company for the fashion manufacturing industry, and a subsidiary of Classic Fashion Apparel Industry Ltd. We build the Trendz Biz Suite — a unified enterprise platform covering production planning, ERP, quality management, HR, and data intelligence for fashion manufacturers.
With a 70+ person team in Kochi and live deployments in production, we are now scaling our engineering organisation to match our next phase of growth. This is a pivotal leadership hire.
The Role
As Head of Product Engineering, you will be CTeBS's senior-most engineering leader — building the leadership layer, establishing the culture, and designing the operating model that takes our engineering function from delivery-focused to capability-driven.
You will lead 30+ engineers across three product teams through a layer of Technical Managers, and sit on the CTeBS leadership team reporting directly to the Business Unit Head.
This is not a role for someone looking to grow into engineering leadership.
It is for someone who has done it — and wants to do it again with full ownership and executive backing.
What You Will Own
Engineering Organisation & Culture
• Lead three product engineering teams through Technical Managers — build their capability as much as the team's
• Establish engineering values, norms, and a culture of accountability, ownership, and craft
• Design and implement career ladders, performance frameworks, and individual development plans
• Drive active, structured hiring — own the talent pipeline from sourcing to onboarding
Strategy & Delivery
• Translate product vision and business goals into multi-quarter engineering plans
• Move the organisation from reactive firefighting to proactive, planned delivery
• Own platform architecture direction in partnership with Solution Architecture
• Represent engineering credibly at the leadership table — costs, timelines, tradeoffs
