ABOUT THE ROLE
FOX Technology is looking for a Director, Platform Engineering to build and lead a new team focused on advancing in-house software development, platform engineering, and AI-enabled capabilities. This role will help establish the standards, workflows, and production-readiness practices needed to take internal ideas from concept to secure, scalable solutions.
You will partner primarily with teams across FOX Technology and Broadcast Engineering to evaluate and mature AI-assisted solutions that support broadcast engineering, operational workflows, distribution, and internal engineering needs. This team will serve as a key bridge between experimentation and production, helping stakeholders turn promising concepts into reliable tools and platforms.
A SNAPSHOT OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
- Lead a new platform engineering team supporting in-house development, AI-enabled workflows, and production readiness
- Establish standards and readiness gates for moving solutions from concept to POC, pilot, and production
- Partner primarily with FOX Technology and Broadcast Engineering teams to evaluate and mature internal tools that support engineering and operational workflows
- Create and improve workflows for CI/CD, testing, deployment, release management, documentation, and operational support
- Serve as a technical gatecheck for AI-assisted development efforts, ensuring solutions are secure, scalable, maintainable, and aligned to FOX standards
- Guide the responsible use of LLMs, Claude or similar tools, Python libraries, feedback loops, and emerging agentic workflows
- Partner with information security to review code quality, dependencies, library risks, data handling, and secure deployment practices
- Lead agile delivery for approved concepts, translating stakeholder needs into technical requirements, sprint plans, and measurable outcomes
- Support local compute initiatives that enable shared platform capabilities for FOX Technology and Broadcast Engineering
- Mentor and develop a small team of software engineers focused on building and operationalizing internal platforms and tools
WHAT YOU WILL NEED

- Experience partnering with information security on secure development, vulnerability management, dependency scanning, or open-source library risk
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical decisions, risks, and tradeoffs to technical and non-technical stakeholders
NICE TO HAVE, BUT NOT A DEALBREAKER
