Founding CTO

WalkImpact – Strengthening Those Who Protect Us, Step by Step

About the Mission

On October 7, 2023, our lives changed.

As Israelis, founders, and reserve officers, we lost friends, loved ones, and a sense of safety.

But those who returned came back different.

WalkImpact was created to meet one urgent need: helping combat veterans, emergency responders, and frontline forces regain control of their lives after trauma.

We're developing LaVie AI — a science-based digital coach for building personal and collective resilience.

About the Role

We are looking for a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to join the founding leadership team. This is a co-founder level position for a builder who wants to lead both strategy and execution.

You will lead all technological aspects of our product, infrastructure, and roadmap — from architecture to AI integration — working closely with product, clinical teams to deliver a scalable, impactful, and secure digital experience.

This is not just a tech role. It’s a commitment to building technology that saves lives.

Responsibilities

• Lead the architecture and infrastructure of our cross-platform, AI-driven resilience platform

• Design and implement AI capabilities, including personalization engines, LLM, and behavior-adaptive logic

• Ensure data security and system integrity at clinical and organizational standards

• Collaborate closely with product and clinical leaders to shape features based on research, behavior science, and real-world needs

• Own the technical roadmap from MVP to scale — from pilots with military units to partnerships with public and private institutions

• Contribute to fundraising, growth strategy, and partnerships as part of the core founding team

• Recruit and lead a high-performing development team aligned with our mission and values

Required Background

• Proven experience as a senior engineer or CTO in an early-stage startup or mission-driven company

• Full-stack development experience, including product based on AI, web and mobile backend systems, and cloud infrastructure

• Strong foundation in AI/ML, particularly LLM’s customized models

• Track record of building scalable and secure platforms

• Excellent leadership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills

• High resilience and ability to work in high-intensity, purpose-driven environments

Preferred Experience

• Prior experience in digital health, mental health, or wellness platforms

• Personal connection to or professional experience with military, emergency, or trauma-related fields

• Experience working with WhatsApp/Telegram or conversational product layers – an advantage

Why Join WalkImpact?

• Join a mission-driven founding team with deep high-tech, product, and clinical expertise

• Be the tech leader in a company working directly with the military and emergency institutions

• Work at the intersection of AI, behavioral science, and national resilience

• Build technology that directly supports people facing trauma, pressure, and emotional overload

• Be part of a product already moving into pilots, with growing demand and strong backing

If you're ready to build technology that matters — for people who risk everything — we’re ready to meet you.

Let’s build resilience. Together.
