Sky Betting & Gaming is a UK-based consumer-facing betting and online gaming operator. Now part of Flutter UK & Ireland and the wider Flutter Entertainment group, the brand is presented alongside Betfair, Paddy Power, PokerStars and tombola as a market-leading provider of trusted entertainment to millions of customers. The company emphasizes responsible play, customer experience and uses digital platforms (web and apps) to deliver betting and gaming services, with operational presence in Leeds and registration under Flutter Entertainment plc.

📋 Description

• Lead, grow, and coach a Platform Engineering team, hiring and developing engineers from junior through staff level. • Own roadmap delivery and technical quality for platform capabilities spanning cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability, and developer tooling. • Champion a “platform as a product” mindset — treat internal developers as customers, gather feedback, and prioritize based on developer experience (DevEx) impact. • Own operational excellence for the team's services: on-call philosophy, incident response, and blameless post-mortems, fostering psychological safety after production incidents. • Evaluate build-vs-buy decisions for internal tooling versus third-party SaaS solutions. • Operate within a regulated environment — ensure delivery speed does not compromise compliance or security requirements (e.g., GLI, state/country betting & gaming regulations) in CI/CD and infrastructure changes. • Evaluate and help roll out AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., AI coding assistants, log analysis) across the distributed team without compromising security. • Communicate platform health, roadmap, and outcomes clearly to engineering leadership and stakeholders using business and platform success metrics.

🎯 Requirements

• Proven experience directly managing platform engineering teams (not solely adjacent teams such as database enablement or generalist backend teams). • Strong hands-on background with cloud infrastructure (AWS), Kubernetes, and CI/CD / release engineering, sufficient to credibly review architecture and technical proposals. • Demonstrated people-management strengths: coaching and mentorship, performance management, and fostering psychological safety. • Experience in building and communicating a multi-quarter strategic roadmap for a platform organization — translating business priorities and DevEx signals into a sequenced set of investments, and defending tradeoffs against competing stakeholder demands.
