CIO as a Service – UAE Based Incubator

This is a unique opportunity for a seasoned CIO or CTO to step in as a trusted advisor, guiding early-stage ventures as they navigate the challenges of scaling, digital transformation, and emerging technologies.

We’re looking for someone who’s been in the trenches—someone who understands what it takes to build and scale tech-driven businesses.

• Acting as a strategic tech mentor, supporting multiple startups on everything from cloud architecture to cybersecurity.
• Advising on scalability, infrastructure, and product roadmaps, ensuring these companies are built to last.
• Helping founders avoid common pitfalls—steering them away from bad tech decisions and towards smart, sustainable solutions.
• Keeping an eye on emerging trends and aligning startup strategies with the UAE’s long-term innovation agenda.
• Working alongside government stakeholders and investors to create a thriving ecosystem for startups.

Who We’re Looking For:

• A seasoned CIO, CTO, or tech leader with hands-on experience in scaling tech-driven businesses.
• A deep understanding of cloud computing, cybersecurity, digital infrastructure, and emerging technologies.
• A strategic thinker who can balance big-picture vision with practical execution.
• Someone who enjoys mentoring, advising, and working with ambitious founders.
• Experience working with government, incubators, or venture-backed startups is a plus.

This is an opportunity to be at the heart of the UAE’s growing tech ecosystem, helping to shape the future of innovation in the region. If you’re passionate about technology and want to play a pivotal role in supporting the next generation of startups, we’d love to hear from you.
