  • Work with Technology, data and infosec teams to ensure solutions meet GBG’s architecture, security, privacy and governance requirements.
  • Establish appropriate engineering standards covering testing, AI reliability, human oversight, monitoring, deployment and ongoing support.
  • Evaluate existing platforms, tools and 3rd party solutions, promoting reuse and avoiding unnecessary technology complexity or cost.
  • Ensure solutions are successfully deployed into production, with appropriate documentation, operational ownership and support arrangements.
  • Identify and address technical dependencies and enabling capabilities required to support future opportunities.
  • Develop internal engineering capability through coaching, knowledge sharing and consistent technical practices.
  • Support the measurement of solution performance and effectiveness, enabling business functions to validate and realise expected benefits.
