About The Opportunity At Beamery
This will be an interim 6 month role, as either fixed term employment contract or inside IR35, with the possibility of extension upon the completion of the initial engagement.
We are seeking a seasoned and execution-focused Interim VP of Engineering to lead our engineering organisation through a critical period of growth and transition. Reporting to the CPTO, and working as an equal partner to Product and Data Science, you'll lead an experienced engineering organisation spanning product engineering, platform, technical support, and IT — with a substantial team of managers, leads, principals, and engineers. Working in close partnership with the CPTO, you'll ensure engineering decisions and delivery are tied to commercial and delivery outcomes — revenue, cost, speed, and reliability.

- Define and evolve the technical strategy for how Beamery builds and operates its platform — in close alignment with product and data science direction

- Manage tech debt pragmatically — triage and execution, in line with strategic priorities set by the CPTO
- Own the cloud infrastructure strategy and platform architecture — ensuring scalability, reliability, and cost efficiency at scale
- Drive delivery throughput, predictability, and platform reliability across all teams — CI/CD, on-call, incident management, disaster recovery
- Ensure security and regulatory compliance across R&D and production platforms — including ISMS implementation and applicable industry standards
- Manage relationships with critical third-party platform and technology suppliers
- 15+ years engineering; 7+ years leading orgs of 50+ at scale
- Done this before — stepped into a leadership void and built momentum fast
