<p><span>American International University (AIU) is a private institution in Kuwait, founded in 2019, offering undergraduate programs based on the American model of higher education. AIU provides degrees in Engineering, Architecture and Design, Business Administration, Arts and Sciences, and Education, with English as the language of instruction. The University is committed to fostering intellectual, cultural, and personal growth, preparing graduates for leadership roles in a global society.</span></p><br>
<p><span>AIU is in active execution of its RISE Strategy 2026–2030, a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement. Technology is not peripheral to this strategy; it is foundational to it. The CIO is a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, responsible for ensuring that AIU's digital infrastructure, enterprise platforms, and data ecosystem are built for the institutional ambitions of 2030, not the operational needs of 2019.</span></p><br> <p><span>For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw</span><br></p><br>
<p><span>Department Profile</span></p><br>
<p><span>The CIO oversees two integrated functions that together constitute AIU's technology enterprise: the established Information Technology division, led by the Executive Director of IT, and the newly created Digital Transformation Office, which sits directly under the CIO's strategic leadership. Together, these functions manage all enterprise platforms, cybersecurity and data governance, academic technology, digital student services, and the AI-enabled tools that support administrative decision-making.</span></p><br> <p><span>Scope of Work</span></p><br>
<p><span>The Chief Information Officer serves as AIU's most senior technology executive and a strategic thought partner to the President. The role bridges two realities: managing a live and growing enterprise technology environment reliably and efficiently today, while building the digital infrastructure that will sustain a WASC-accredited, research-active, rankings-visible university by 2030. The CIO is accountable for both.</span></p><br> <p><span>The scope of work spans five interconnected domains:</span></p><br>

<li><span>Present quarterly technology performance reports to the President and an annual technology state-of-institution report to the Board of Trustees in plain language, not technical language</span></li>
<li><span>Manage the IT budget with full accountability for return on investment: technology spend must be justified by measurable institutional outcomes, not by technical preference</span></li>
<li><span>Lead all major technology vendor selection, contract negotiation, and relationship management ensuring AIU obtains best-value agreements and maintains leverage with strategic technology partners</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>2. Campus Digital Transformation</span></p><br>

<p><span>Tech Lead, One Cloud (Kuwait)</span></p><br>
<p><span>Hiring brief for HR / Talent</span></p><br>
<p><span>Reports to: Group CTO | Location: Kuwait (on-site) | Level: Senior / Lead</span></p><br>
<p><span>The role in one line</span></p><br>
<p><span>We are hiring a deeply hands-on Tech Lead in Kuwait to act as the Group CTO's right arm on the ground for the One Cloud platform. This is not a manager who reviews work from a distance. This person writes code, owns architecture, sits with clients, and makes the call on what gets built first.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Why this hire matters</span></p><br>
<p><span>Our tech and product team is distributed across Pakistan, Egypt, and the UAE. One Cloud needs a senior technical anchor physically present in Kuwait, our primary client hub, who can translate between clients, the Group CTO, and the build team. The person carries real technical authority and can be trusted to run the technical agenda day to day.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Non-negotiable requirements</span></p><br>
<p><span>A candidate must meet all of the following to be shortlisted. If any one of these is missing, they are not the right fit.</span></p><br>
<ul>
<li><span>Hands-on, current:</span><span> Still writes code today. Not someone who stopped being technical five years ago. They should be comfortable in a codebase, reviewing pull requests, and debugging production issues themselves.</span></li>
<li><span>Hands-on architecture:</span><span> Has personally led the architecture of real systems, not just drawn diagrams. Has made the trade-off decisions and lived with the consequences.</span></li>
<li><span>Shipped big products:</span><span> Has launched at least one large-scale application in retail or fintech as the technical lead. We want someone who has shipped something big and seen it run at scale, not just contributed to it.</span></li>
<li><span>Agentic delivery (demo required):</span><span> Has delivered and shipped a large-scale product using an agentic development process, orchestrating multiple agents. This is core to how we build. A live demo of their agentic work will be required on the first call, so they must be able to show it, not just describe it.</span></li>
<li><span>Product and client exposure:</span><span> At some point in their career has done product management and has dealt directly with clients. They understand that engineering serves a business outcome, and they can hold a room.</span></li>
<li><span>Communication and prioritisation:</span><span> Can speak, negotiate, and prioritise. They can sit across from a client, push back when needed, and decide what the team builds next week versus next quarter.</span></li>
<li><span>Location and visa:</span><span> Based in Kuwait with a legally transferable visa. We need someone who can start without visa complications.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>What they will own</span></p><br>
<ul>
<li><span>Technical delivery for One Cloud on the ground in Kuwait, working closely with the distributed team in Pakistan, Egypt, and the UAE.</span></li>
<li><span>Architecture decisions for new and existing systems, with the Group CTO as the only person above them on technical calls.</span></li>
<li><span>Prioritisation of the build roadmap in partnership with the Group CTO and the business.</span></li>
<li><span>Direct client conversations on technical scope, feasibility, and timelines.</span></li>
<li><span>Code quality, technical standards, and reviews across the team.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>Ideal background</span></p><br>
<p><span>Area</span></p><br>
<p><span>What good looks like</span></p><br>
<p><span>Domain</span></p><br>
<p><span>Retail and/or fintech, ideally both. Familiarity with commerce or enterprise platforms is a strong plus.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Seniority</span></p><br>
<p><span>Roughly 10+ years in engineering, with several of those as a technical lead or principal who still codes.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Scale</span></p><br>
<p><span>Has led delivery of an application with significant user volume or transaction load. Has seen what breaks at scale.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Agentic build</span></p><br>
<p><span>Has shipped a real product built through an agentic development process with multiple agents. Can demo this work live on the first call.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Product</span></p><br>
<p><span>A genuine stint in product management or close product ownership at some point. Comfortable owning outcomes, not just tickets.</span></p><br>
<p><span>Soft skills</span></p><br>
<p><span>Confident communicator. Can negotiate scope and timelines with clients and say no when it is the right answer.</span></p><br> <p><span>Location</span></p><br>
<p><span>In Kuwait, with a transferable residency visa. On-site role.</span></p><br> </div>
