Chptr is a media-technology platform transforming how communities share life’s biggest moments — from memorials to milestones.
We partner with local businesses and media organizations — including Hearst, Sinclair, Gray Television, Paramount/CBS, and hundreds of local affiliates — to automate the creation and distribution of media content.
Our fully automated storytelling pipeline powers everything from obituaries and community spotlights to brand and business announcements, helping millions reconnect with local stories told with dignity, authenticity, and transparency.
Our mission is simple: restore trust, transparency, and local connection to the way stories are told.
Chptr is seeking a Head of Engineering to help us scale from proven product–market fit in one vertical to a multi-sector marketplace.
This leader will be both hands-on (≈30%) and strategic, guiding architecture, process, and people as we grow from a small, senior technical team into an innovative, scalable organization.
You’ll partner closely with the VP of Product and collaborate with executives to shape the technical vision, roadmap, and execution across product engineering, infrastructure, and emerging AI-assisted workflows.
