The Head of Infrastructure ensures those teams operate within a common set of DTS standards for reliability, observability, security, deployment control, cost visibility, operational readiness and resilience.  The role will work closely with the CTO, Chief Architect, SVP Data Collaboration Infrastructure, SVP Security and Compliance, TechOps, Engineering, Product, Enterprise Technology and platform leads across InfoSum, Open Intelligence, Resolve and other DTS capabilities.  The purpose of the role is to create alignment and visibility across infrastructure and providing the autonomy needed by specialist teams to operate according to agreed standards and principles.   What you'll be doing: 1. Infrastructure standards and operating model Define and maintain the common infrastructure standards that DTS platforms must meet.  This includes:  * Working with DTS leadership to define infrastructure principles, minimum standards and operating expectations.  * Establishing standards for reliability, observability, deployment governance, security, resilience, cost visibility and operational readiness.  * Ensuring standards are practical and can be adopted by different DTS platform teams.  * Creating a clear infrastructure operating model that distinguishes between central standards and product-team autonomy.  * Ensuring infrastructure standards are aligned with DTS architecture, security, product and commercial priorities.    1. Federated infrastructure governance Coordinate a federated infrastructure model across DTS.  This includes:  * Ensuring InfoSum, Open Intelligence, Resolve and other platform teams can operate their own infrastructure while meeting common DTS requirements.  * Avoiding unnecessary centralisation that would slow down specialist teams or remove useful autonomy.  * Defining where common tooling or central coordination is required.  * Ensuring each product/platform team has clear infrastructure ownership and accountability.  * Creating mechanisms to monitor whether teams are operating within agreed standards.    1. Alignment with DTS leadership Ensure infrastructure decisions are aligned with senior DTS leadership and broader platform strategy.  This includes:  * Taking direction from the CTO, Chief Architect, SVP Data Collaboration Infrastructure and SVP Security and Compliance on infrastructure priorities.  * Translating DTS architecture and security principles into practical infrastructure standards.  * Working with DTS leaders to resolve trade-offs between autonomy, standardisation, cost, security and reliability.  * Ensuring infrastructure decisions support the wider DTS platform direction.  * Providing leadership with visibility of infrastructure risks, gaps, dependencies and progress.    1. Deployment governance and change visibility Create common deployment governance and production change visibility across DTS.  This includes:  * Defining minimum standards for production deployment processes.  * Establishing central visibility of who deployed what, when and where.  * Supporting release gates, change records and deployment auditability.  * Enabling teams to use their own deployment tooling while reporting into a common deployment record.  * Supporting mechanisms to pause or control deployments during high-risk or sensitive periods.  * Ensuring deployment activity can be correlated with incidents, outages and platform instability.    1.

Infrastructure security alignment Work with Security and Compliance to ensure infrastructure standards support DTS security requirements.  This includes:  * Ensuring infrastructure standards reflect security requirements around access control, network exposure, ingress/egress, secrets, logging and hardening.  * Working with the Cloud and Platform Security Lead where applicable.  * Ensuring teams provide evidence that required infrastructure security controls are in place.  * Supporting the reduction of unnecessary public exposure across DTS services.  * Ensuring infrastructure governance supports audit, compliance and client assurance requirements.    1.
