Nixon Digital is actively seeking an exceptional CTO, who has a strong passion for innovation and creativity, to take on the role of Chief Technology Officer for our SaaS startup.

We have developed a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that helps companies get a better grip on their complex digital landscape. How?

We are a young startup, but we are scaling rapidly and continually developing our platform to help our clients develop their digital maturity.
