About Our Client

Founded in 1979 and serving Texas homeowners for more than four decades, this family-owned business has built its reputation on delivering customized solutions, expert craftsmanship, and an ownership experience that goes far beyond the sale. With over 60% of business coming from repeat customers and referrals, the company has earned the kind of loyalty that most organizations only aspire to.

The Opportunity

This is a rare chance to walk into a growing, operationally complex company and own the entire technology function from day one. You will have the ear of the CEO, a seat at the table on every major business decision involving technology, and the freedom to shape how a successful company modernizes, automates, and scales. There is no bureaucracy to navigate, no approval chain to climb, and no one waiting to tell you what you can or cannot build. The three most compelling reasons to take this role are the scope, the visibility, and the trajectory: you will touch every corner of the business, your work will have immediate and measurable impact, and the long-term path for the right person leads toward senior technology leadership, including a potential CTO seat as the company grows. If you are someone who has felt underutilized in a large enterprise environment and wants to finally build something of your own within an established, financially sound company, this role was designed for you.
