Head of Development at Prop Firm Match Global – FZCO. 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐙𝐂𝐎. Prop Firm Match Global FZCO is the leading platform for discovering, comparing, and selecting proprietary trading firms. We help traders make confident, informed decisions through side-by-side comparisons, verified reviews, and data-backed insights. With 100,000+ monthly visitors and a globally distributed team of 62, we are scaling fast - and the technology organization needs to match that pace.. 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞. The Head of Development owns PFM's engineering organization end-to-end. This is a high-ownership role for someone who leads from the front - writing code, making architectural decisions, and building with AI at their side. You will set the technical bar, drive consistent delivery, and be the bridge between engineering and company leadership. In a fast-moving environment, priorities shift without warning. You are expected to adapt immediately, re-prioritize without friction, and always be thinking 10 steps ahead - anticipating architectural needs, scaling challenges, and product directions before they are formally asked for. We expect you to be deeply hands-on with Claude Code and AI-assisted development: not as a buzzword, but as a core part of how you work every day.. We are not looking for someone who simply manages a team. We are looking for a builder - someone who ships fast, holds the bar high, and uses AI as a genuine force multiplier. You will own engineering end-to-end, integrate Claude Code and AI- assisted workflows into every layer of development, and drive Prop Firm Match into its next phase of growth. Priorities shift. Requirements evolve. The roadmap moves. You must be able to adapt instantly, anticipate what is coming before it is asked, and always be thinking 10 steps ahead of the current feature set. Excuses are not part of the culture. Speed, dependability, flexibility, and relentless innovation are.. 𝐑𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 | 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐭-𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 .
