The Role
The CTO we're after at Growth Partners reads Continuous Learning the way most people read headlines: quickly, and between the lines. Rare is the c-level opening that pairs $227,000 - $445,000 with the freedom to shape general work the way this Ames one does.
Key Responsibilities
- Drive measurable improvements within your area of responsibility
- Keep Communication handoffs warm so Ames partners never feel dropped
- Balance independent work with effective remote team collaboration
- Manage competing demands while keeping attention to detail high
- Spot the Ames pattern in feedback before it becomes a complaint
- Refuse to let Flexibility debt quietly accumulate on your watch
- Represent Growth Partners professionally with vendors, partners, and customers
- Execute core CTO duties with accuracy and consistency
What You'll Bring
- 15 or more years steering general projects end to end
- Hands-on command of Problem Solving, with Communication as a close second
- A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
- Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
- Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
- Proven Problem Solving judgment when the textbook answer doesn't fit
Founded by engineers who believe small teams ship great software, Growth Partners now serves customers across the country from its Ames, IA office. Diverse perspectives make our general work sharper, and we deliberately seek them out.
Beyond the $227,000 - $445,000 headline, we hand you a mentor, room to grow into c-level work, and the freedom to shape your own week.
