The way engineering teams build software is constantly evolving, and every new wave - such as AI agents operating across the SDLC - makes engineering more powerful, but also more complex and chaotic.\nPort turns that chaos into control: one platform to build, govern, and operate the software development lifecycle, enabling every team to move as fast as technology allows.\nFollowing our $100M Series C funding round, we are entering an exciting stage of significant growth and global expansion. As a product-led company, we believe the recipe for success is a world-class product that speaks for itself.\nAbout the position:\nThe Strategic Engineer, in Port's CEO's Office serves as a strategic connection point between Port's product organization and its go-to-market teams. Reporting to the Field CTO, this role addresses the company's highest-priority challenges as they emerge, and operates across a broad and evolving scope of strategic initiatives.\nThe core of the role is 0→1 execution. Each quarter, the position is aligned to specific company KPIs, and is responsible for building the required foundations from the ground up: processes, tooling, content, and enablement infrastructure. Initiatives are developed, validated, and operationalized before being transitioned to the relevant owning team.\nExecution spans a wide range of activities depending on the initiative in focus. These may include:\nBuilding product demos and technical assets on the Port platform\nPartnering with marketing to produce content that communicates Port's positioning to the market\nMeeting with customers and prospects to gather feedback and validate direction\nRepresenting Port at industry conferences and events\nConducting market research to inform where the company invests next\nDesigning and standing up new internal processes, programs, and tooling\nThe scope of this role is intentionally broad and will evolve alongside company priorities. It is well suited to a candidate who thrives on breadth, operates with speed and autonomy, and is motivated by working at the center of the business.\nWhat success will look like:\nOwn strategic initiatives end to end, from definition through execution and handover, working in close partnership with the Field CTO on direction while driving the execution independently\nProactively identify signals in the market, product, or field, and initiate ideas and projects independently, without waiting for direction from the Field CTO or CEO\nSet a consistently high quality bar, delivering work that is best in class rather than simply complete\nOperate independently in front of customers and prospects, running meetings and demos with confidence and credibility\nBecome a recognized internal expert on both the Port platform and the broader market, and a person other teams come to for answers\nMove quickly across changing priorities, ramping into new domains and delivering meaningful output within weeks rather than months\nThe clearest signal of success is that initiatives this person touches move faster, land better, and reach a higher standard than they would have otherwise.\nRequirements\n4 years of experience in Engineering / technical customer facing roles, with hands-on technical ability\nHands-on experience with AI tools and agents: prompting, building automations, working with agentic workflows\nStrong presentation skills, comfortable running meetings and demos in front of technical and executive audiences\nFluent English (written and verbal) and Hebrew\nExperience with dev tools, platform engineering, or DevOps concepts is a strong plus\nAdvantage for experience in Sales engineering, Product Marketing, and technical GTM roles\nPersonal Attributes & Mindset\nExceptional communicator, written and verbal, able to adapt to technical, executive, and customer audiences\nWinner mindset: optimistic, competitive, and eager to take on any challenge\nSharp problem solver, able to break down complex and ambiguous problems into clear direction\nConfident and engaging presence, comfortable leading a room\nHigh ownership: takes responsibility and follows through end to end\nAutodidact, learns new tools, domains, and problems fast with minimal guidance\nComfortable with ambiguity and constantly shifting scope\nCares deeply about quality, impact, and the success of the company as a whole\nExtensive travel could be required","description_format":"text","description_chars":4409,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced
