We advise businesses, government and public sector organisations and individuals in the UK and internationally across four principal practice groups: Real Estate, Corporate Services, Dispute Resolution and Private Client. We are defined by our Next Level Law proposition. We work with our clients as a proactive partner, horizon scanning and thinking ahead to the changes, challenges or opportunities that they may face. Next Level Law is also applied to our people. Our collegiate culture means everyone is encouraged to achieve their next level in everything they do.

Diversity plays an integral part in all that we do, with female partners comprising 42% of our partnership. The team you will join The AI capability sits within Birketts' Information Technology function, working closely with Product Development, Knowledge Management, Learning & Development, Security and Risk & Compliance. Delivery will be product-led and iterative, with a small cross-functional working group using matrixed resources across teams. The role will operate within Birketts' core ecosystem, including Microsoft 365 (Copilot), iManage (Document Management), Aderant Expert (Practice Management), Intapp Intake (new client onboarding) and Microsoft Fabric (data platform). Azure is a likely hosting platform for any future 'Birketts-approved AI environment', subject to requirements and build vs buy decisions. The work you will be doing As AI Technical Lead, you will be a hands-on technical leader within Birketts' IT team, working in close partnership with the Product Manager for AI. Your focus will be to turn early AI usage into safe, repeatable and supported capabilities-starting with productising M365 Copilot and Copilot Agents in priority workflows (document drafting/review and knowledge workflows in selected practice areas) and delivering practical integrations into Birketts' existing systems. This is a hands-on role: alongside shaping standards and enablement, you will write and ship code where needed to deliver small integrations, automations and repeatable AI-enabled workflows. This role is delivery-oriented: you will design, build and ship incremental improvements, partnering with colleagues across Development, Data, Security, Knowledge Management and Learning & Development to drive adoption, skills sharing and effective change management. You will also support evidence-based build vs buy decisions on specialist third-party legal tools and any future 'Birketts-approved AI environment'. Platform architecture and security governance will be delivered in collaboration with Birketts' wider Technology and Information Security leadership. You will be supported by matrixed colleagues in Development, Data and Security; this role leads hands-on delivery of priority items rather than owning all engineering capacity. Please note that this job profile is not an exhaustive list of duties but merely an outline of the key components of the role. You may be required by your line manager to take on additional responsibilities when requested. What we are looking for This role is well suited to a hands-on technical lead who enjoys building and improving products in partnership with product management and users. You will be able to translate business needs into secure, auditable and integrated solutions, and you will be comfortable delivering in a matrixed model, bringing others along through coaching, documentation and shared patterns. You will be comfortable coding as part of delivery, not only producing guidance and patterns. Essential experience and skills Proven experience delivering production-grade software, workflow or automation solutions in an enterprise environment, with hands-on build and delivery responsibility Strong experience integrating systems and data sources into coherent workflows (API-led integration, events and/or data pipelines) Hands-on software development capability, with proficiency in at least one mainstream language used for enterprise API integration and automation (e.g., C#/.NET, Python); able to design, build, test and release small services/integrations Practical experience delivering AI-assisted workflow features into production, including validation/testing and monitoring Understanding of common AI delivery patterns and controls Good cloud experience (preferably Azure) and understanding of secure delivery practices (identity, access control, audit logging, monitoring and operational readiness) Working knowledge of modern engineering practices (Git, code review, CI/CD basics, and operational readiness such as logging/monitoring) Experience working with security/governance stakeholders to apply controls in delivery (confidentiality, auditability and least privilege) Experience delivering through an agile product lifecycle with measurable outcomes (discovery, pilots, iteration, adoption/value tracking) Ability to apply pragmatic quality and evaluation approaches to AI-assisted features (testing/validation, guardrails, release gating and user feedback loops) Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills, including the ability to explain technical decisions and trade-offs to non-technical audiences and to support adoption Desirable experience Experience in legal or other regulated/professional services environments where confidentiality and auditability are critical Experience with Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Agents and/or Microsoft-aligned automation Familiarity with one or more of: iManage, Aderant Expert, Intapp Intake, Microsoft Fabric or similar platforms Experience building integrations with document/content platforms or line-of-business systems (e.g., DMS, intake, practice management, or data platforms) Exposure to Azure AI services (including Azure OpenAI/Azure AI) and/or delivering AI-assisted workflow features in production Experience evaluating and piloting third-party AI tools (security posture, integration approach, operating model) and supporting build vs buy recommendations Hybrid Working Birketts is a flexible business which has embraced a hyb

RDQ426R108 About the Role Lead a team dedicated to embedding security into Databricks' core platforms - including compute, identity, data plane, control plane, Kubernetes infrastructure, and developer frameworks. Shape company wide security architecture by driving "secure by default" platforms, opinionated frameworks, and systemic guardrails. Partner closely with engineering teams to make the secure path the easiest path. Eliminate entire classes of security risk through scalable design, not manual reviews or ticket triage. Set technical direction and empower engineers to build secure systems at massive scale. The Impact You Will Have Build secure platforms: Integrate security into infrastructure and platform systems from the ground up. Create reusable security frameworks: Develop secure reference architectures and automated guardrails that simplify adoption. Reduce systemic risks: Identify patterns of architectural weaknesses and drive durable, root cause fixes across product areas. Influence roadmaps: Work with engineering and Red Teams to validate assumptions, improve controls, and strengthen design decisions. Scale security leadership: Grow and mentor senior security engineers, ensuring engagement happens early and proactively. Drive meaningful outcomes: Within 12 months, your team will enable security frameworks to be adopted by default, eliminate recurring vulnerability classes, and permanently reduce at least one major systemic risk. What We Look For Deep technical background in distributed systems, cloud, or platform security. Proven experience securing large scale, multi tenant architectures. Strong grasp of identity, authorization, isolation, and cryptographic trust boundaries. Comfortable influencing principal engineers and product roadmaps. Demonstrated success leading technically senior engineers with high autonomy. A mindset that focuses on failure chains, not just individual vulnerabilities. Passion for building security solutions that are scalable, elegant, and frictionless for developers. About Databricks Databricks is the data and AI company.
