- Make strategic architecture, technology, build-vs-buy and model-vs-API decisions to optimise long-term capability, cost and scalability.
- Shape the future technology organisation, including team structure, engineering processes and talent strategy.
- Represent technology and engineering with customers, partners, the board and investors as required.
