This role will own endtoend engineering velocityfrom idea to productionacross our entire digital product organisation. You will eliminate the high waste in our deployment pipeline, reduce our multiday lead time to hours, and build one of the fastest, most efficient digital product engineering teams in banking. This is not a traditional management role. You will be a handson architect of organisational and technical systems, working at the intersection of engineering excellence, organisational design, and cultural transformation. You will eat, sleep, and breathe deployment velocity, developer experience, and flow efficiency. Mission Transform our product and engineering organisation to enable multiple deployments per day safely, reliably, and at scale with a lead time for change measured in hours. In our digital world, speed from idea to business value is our primary competitive weapon. Your mandate is to fix this and keep iterating until we are the best. Key Responsibilities Own Velocity Metrics EndtoEnd: Define, instrument, and drive metrics across all 56+ PODs; build realtime dashboards showing flow efficiency, bottlenecks, and trends; establish speed as a firstclass KPI; report directly to Group COO on velocity improvements and blockers. Eliminate Deployment Pipeline Waste: Reduce wait time by automating manual confirmations, approvals, and handoffs; design and implement progressive rollout strategies with automated rollback; build automated testing frameworks that eliminate hours of manual test confirmation; work with Control functions to shift left into the pipeline. Architect for Flow Across 56+ PODs: Understand dependencies across PODs; identify and eliminate coordination bottlenecks between PODs; design selfservice platform capabilities to reduce dependency on PODs; transform CAB approval process from manual gate to automated guardrails; establish riskbased deployment strategies. Enable Platform Teams for Maximum Impact: Partner with Pipeline & DevEx POD to build worldclass deployment automation; work with Testing Automation POD to create comprehensive, fast, reliable test suites; collaborate with Platform & Cloud POD on infrastructureascode and ephemer, environments; guide Incident Management POD toward predictive alerting and autoremediation; ensure platform investments directly reduce deployment lead time. Prepare for AI Agent Deployment at Scale: Recognize that AI agents are software workers requiring rapid iteration; design deployment pipelines that support rapid deployment frequency; ensure infrastructure can handle multiple deployments per day across all PODs; build observability and rollback capabilities for AI agent updates. Requirements Essential Experience 10+ years in software engineering and DevOps with deep handson technical expertise. Experience in MLOps and awareness of LLMOps. Proven track record of reducing deployment lead time in complex organisations. Experience working in organisations with 500+ engineers across multiple teams/PODs and geographies. Deep understanding of flow and velocity metrics, Team Topologies, and flow efficiency. Handson experience with modern CI/CD and MLflow tools. Expertise in cloud infrastructure (AWS), containers, and IaC. Experience building observability and monitoring systems. Highly Valued Experience Banking, fintech, or highly regulated industry experience. Led DevOps transformation in an organisation that achieved elite metrics. Built or scaled platform engineering teams. Experience with microservices architectures and eventdriven systems. Knowledge of compliance automation and shiftleft security practices. Awareness in SRE (Site Reliability Engineering) principles. Required Skills & Competencies Systems thinking: Ability to see the entire value stream and identify constraint points. Datadriven decision making: Obsessive about metrics, measurement, and continuous improvement. Influence without authority: Can drive change across 56+ PODs without direct reporting lines. Executive communication: Can present complex technical concepts to Csuite audiences. Bias toward action: Moves fast, experiments, learns, iterates. Technical credibility: Engineers respect you because youve done the work. Cultural sensitivity: Can work with traditional banking functions (Compliance, Risk, Legal). Relentless focus: This is not a side projectyou live and breathe velocity. Benefits Transform an entire banking organisations approach to software delivery. Have executivelevel visibility and influence without traditional management overhead. Work at the bleeding edge of DevOps, MLOps and LLMOps excellence in a complex, regulated environment. Build systems that will power AI agent deployment at unprecedented scale. Directly impact customer experience through faster product iterations. Make speed a strategic weapon and competitive advantage. Establish yourself as a thought leader in banking DevOps, MLOps /and LLMOps transformation. If you are energized by the challenge of taking a deployment cycle to under 4 hours and building one of the fastest digital product engineering operations in bankingthis role is for you.
