The Role
- Lead and develop a team of seven experienced engineers, including several Principal Engineers
- Drive delivery across a business-critical AI Platform that supports teams across the organisation

- Partner closely with Product and senior leadership to translate strategy into execution
- Build scalable AI infrastructure that enables new AI-powered products and features
- Manage strategic relationships with external AI partners and technology providers

- Strong technical credibility with experience contributing to architecture and system design
- Commercial experience delivering AI or machine learning products into production
- Broad engineering, data science or ML background with the ability to operate across software engineering and AI/ML in production
- Excellent stakeholder management skills with experience working closely with Product and Executive teams
- Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve quickly
- Experience with LLMs is beneficial, but strong engineering fundamentals and AI production experience are more important
