The Platform Technical Lead is the technical owner of the platform product. Reporting directly into the Head Of System Engineering (HoSE) and whilst specific responsibilities will be dependent upon the changing needs of the Tesco business, the following provides an overview of the role’s key responsibilities and measures. They own how the platform is designed, built, operated and evolved, and are accountable for its technical integrity in production. They partner with the Platform Product Lead, who owns product direction and stakeholder outcomes; the Platform Technical Lead owns the engineering that delivers them. • Act as design authority for the platform: own the technical roadmap, author and ratify Architecture Decision Records, run design review, and hold the line on standards. Decisions are documented, evidenced and reversible‑by‑design where possible., • Own the target architecture for the platform across its full stack: OpenShift (HCP / Virtualization), GitOps delivery (Argo CD), multi‑cluster management and policy (ACM, Gatekeeper/OPA), observability, networking and storage integration, and infrastructure‑as‑code. Set and enforce the paved‑road patterns the team builds to., • Evaluate new technologies against product outcomes, not novelty: run structured spikes with defined success criteria, and make adopt/hold/reject calls with written rationale., • Understand how infrastructure product teams expose the platform to application engineering teams, and factor that end‑to‑end developer experience into platform design decisions - the platform is only as good as what the products can build on it., • Own the technical content of the platform product roadmap jointly with the Platform Lead: they prioritise the what, the Platform Technical Lead defines the how, effort, sequencing and technical risk., • Eliminate toil systematically: everything operated more than twice is a candidate for automation; anything manual in the production path is a defect on the backlog., • Develop and maintain DevOps practices within the Platform Team.
