Director of Platform Engineering, AI Security

The role: Lead and develop a team of platform and infrastructure engineers, while remaining technically hands-on. Set direction for platform architecture, AI infrastructure and distributed systems. Build reliable, scalable foundations supporting complex, data-intensive and AI-driven workloads. Drive decisions across cloud infrastructure, compute, networking, storage, observability and developer tooling. Improve engineering practices, reliability and operational efficiency as the organisation scales. Partner with engineering leadership to identify priorities, make pragmatic technical trade-offs and build out the function.

What we're looking for: An experienced engineering leader with a strong background in platform, infrastructure or backend engineering. Deep technical understanding of distributed systems and production infrastructure. Someone who can move between architectural decisions, detailed technical problem-solving and team leadership. Experience building teams and systems in a fast-moving environment, with the judgement and autonomy to operate without excessive oversight. A track record of developing engineers and raising the technical bar. Experience supporting AI or ML workloads is useful, but strong platform and infrastructure fundamentals are the priority.

Location: United States. Remote candidates will be considered.
