Platform Lead Engineer

Reporting to the Data, AI & Platforms Manager, you will be responsible for leading the daily technical execution and engineering quality of the Platform Engineering team through hands-on work, technical guidance, review, mentoring, and coordination across DevOps, Platform Engineering, and Data Platform activities. Your primary objective is to act as the primary technical counterpart and operational right hand of the Manager for the platform domain, translating defined architecture, priorities, and engineering standards into consistent technical execution. Leading primarily through technical seniority, hands-on expertise, and execution ownership, you will ensure platform services remain stable, observable, secure, maintainable, and production-ready while decisively coordinating team dependencies, managing ITIL governance, leading incident response, and handling Change Advisory Board (CAB) processes to safeguard production environment integrity.
