Your Key Responsibilities and Impact As Head of Architecture, you will define and support the delivery of the technical architecture in your area of responsibility. This includes both line management and setting overall strategy in a way that enables all engineering teams to work at scale and high efficiency. This is a highly collaborative role.

Within this role, your focus will be on the BBC's Data Platform and Account & Identity capabilities, which underpin both digital and broadcast experiences at national and global scale. These platforms enable audience insight, personalisation, operational decision making and regulatory compliance, forming a critical part of the BBC's future technology landscape. As Head of Architecture for Data Platform & Account & Identity, your responsibilities will include: Creating and evolving platform capabilities that support billions of audience events per day, enabling high availability, secure and scalable systems with near zero tolerance for failure. This includes data ingestion, processing, and analytics platforms, alongside identity and authentication services used by millions of users globally. Leading the transition from vertically aligned systems to domain oriented, platform based architectures. This includes embedding data product thinking, clear ownership models, discoverability and governance, and supporting the maturity of operating models across platform and product teams. Defining and governing architectural standards across data, AI/ML and identity ecosystems. This includes ensuring coherence across real time and batch processing, machine learning enablement platforms, and customer identity services, while maintaining regulatory compliance, managing risk, and ensuring long term technical sustainability.
