Volledige vacaturetekst

Reporting to the CTO L&H and SDS and being part of the leadership team, you will be responsible for the direction, performance, and evolution of several transversal teams and services, including:
  • the DSCP (Digital Solutions Cloud Platform) team, operating a modern multi-cloud platform with strong infrastructure-as-code and platform engineering practices;
  • the Frontend Framework team, responsible for the shared frontend framework aligned with the SCOR Design System and evolving AI-enabled software delivery practices;
  • the Digital Experience team, covering developer tooling, workplace/platform enablement, Mac lifecycle management, network/tooling support, FinOps, and related internal productivity services;
  • the operational support (L2) teams, with a mandate to strengthen service support, operational excellence, automation, and SLA alignment.
This is a senior technology leadership role, not a coordination function. It requires a leader who can combine platform strategy, engineering depth, operations discipline, financial awareness, modern tooling vision, and AI-enabled transformation.
You will be expected to strengthen these transversal capabilities as a coherent platform ecosystem: secure by design, efficient to operate, developer-centric, globally scalable, and tightly aligned with SCOR’s broader technology strategy.

Leadership of transversal engineering and platform capabilities
  • Lead the shared platform and transversal services portfolio across cloud platform engineering, frontend foundations, digital experience, and L2 operational support.
  • Provide clear direction, priorities, and operating discipline across geographically distributed teams and external/internal contributors.
  • Ensure these capabilities are run as strategic internal platforms and services, not as fragmented technical sub-teams.
  • Build a strong leadership bench across platform engineering, developer experience, support operations, and shared framework ownership.
Platform strategy and technology direction
  • Define and execute a clear target vision for shared engineering platforms and transversal services supporting Life & Health.
  • Translate business and technology priorities into platform roadmaps, investment choices, sequencing decisions, and measurable outcomes.
  • Ensure common services are designed for reuse, scale, resilience, security, and efficiency.
  • Contribute actively to the broader L&H and SDS technology strategy as a member of the CTO leadership team.
Cloud platform and platform engineering leadership
  • Oversee the evolution of the DSCP platform as a modern multi-cloud engineering platform leveraging infrastructure-as-code, Terraform, and managed/PaaS capabilities.
  • Ensure the platform operating model supports secure onboarding, reusable components, guardrails, observability, and production readiness.
  • Drive alignment between platform architecture, cloud governance, security requirements, and delivery team enablement.
  • Promote shared standards for platform modules, deployment patterns, environment provisioning, and lifecycle management.
Frontend framework, design system, and AI-enabled SDLC
  • Lead the shared frontend framework capability as a strategic enabler for consistency, speed, accessibility, and maintainability across products.
  • Ensure alignment with the SCOR Design System , shared component models, and modern frontend engineering standards.
  • Drive the evolution of AI-enabled frontend and development workflows, including the integration of design, documentation, task management, and engineering execution where they create real value.
  • Strengthen the role of shared frontend capabilities as a bridge between design, engineering, and product delivery.
Digital Experience, developer tooling, and productivity services
  • Oversee the Digital Experience agenda across developer tooling, platform enablement, digital workplace support, Mac lifecycle management, Atlassian ecosystem enablement, FinOps-related enablement, and internal engineering productivity.
  • Improve the quality, simplicity, and scalability of the internal technology experience for engineers and related teams.
  • Standardize tooling and workflows where beneficial, while reducing friction, duplication, and operational overhead.
  • Ensure internal tooling and productivity services support secure, compliant, and high-velocity engineering work.
Operational support excellence and SLA-driven service management
  • Lead the evolution of L2 operational support capabilities toward a more mature, transparent, and performance-driven support model.
  • Strengthen incident, request, escalation, and service support practices in line with agreed SLAs and operational expectations.
  • Improve production readiness, service observability, support handoffs, and operational governance.
  • Drive standardisation of support metrics, issue prevention, and continuous service improvement.
AI, automation, and efficiency at scale
  • Promote practical and disciplined use of AI to improve platform engineering, service operations, developer productivity, internal support, and workflow automation.
  • Identify high-value use cases for automation and AI-assisted operations, such as audit support, support automation, engineering enablement, documentation, and workflow orchestration.
  • Ensure AI adoption is governed, measurable, and integrated into sustainable operating practices rather than treated as experimentation alone.
  • Drive a culture where teams use automation to remove repetitive work and focus on higher-value engineering and operational outcomes.
Financial discipline, vendor management, and platform economics
  • Bring strong oversight to platform cost management, tooling spend , cloud/platform economics, and vendor/service trade-offs.
  • Work closely with relevant stakeholders on FinOps-related transparency, cost allocation, and consumption optimisation .
  • Ensure platform and transversal services are run with sound economics, clear ownership, and value-oriented prioritisation .
  • Manage strategic external partners and internal service dependencies with clear accountability and outcome focus.
Cross-team integration and engineering coherence
  • Work closely with the Heads of Engineering and other technology leaders across L&H and SCOR to ensure transversal services actively enable—not slow down—delivery.
  • Connect platform engineering, frontend foundations, tooling, workplace, and support capabilities into one coherent internal platform strategy.
  • Eliminate fragmentation, duplicated tooling patterns, and local optimisations that damage scale or maintainability.
  • Help establish best-in-class engineering practices across shared services and platform domains.
