This is a senior role combining deep technical expertise with leadership, influencing direction and delivering high-impact outcomes across a complex enterprise environment. You’ll operate at the intersection of data engineering, security and AI, defining and driving the data engineering strategy and roadmap, owning scalable data pipelines, embedding secure-by-design principles, and enabling production-grade data foundations for AI, machine learning and advanced analytics. You’ll also partner across Security, Cloud, Architecture and Product teams while mentoring engineers and building a high-performing engineering culture.

Ability to make pragmatic, risk-aware technical decisions balancing resilience, pace and long-term maintainability
Experience embedding engineering best practices such as CI/CD, automated testing, observability and version control
