This is a unique opportunity to play a leading role in shaping and evolving BT's End-to-End Research Platform (E2ERP), a secure, self-service IT and networking environment that enables rapid experimentation, proof-of-concept development, and the creation of advanced research testbeds.
The platform underpins some of BT's most ambitious research and innovation programmes, providing researchers with the infrastructure, tools, and capabilities needed to validate emerging technologies that do not yet exist within BT's operational networks.
At the centre of a growing partnership ecosystem, the E2ERP enables collaboration across BT, supporting business-critical programmes and network use cases, while also providing a trusted environment for engagement with leading industry partners, technology vendors, start-ups, and academic institutions.
As part of the ongoing evolution of the platform, you will help design, build, and operate strategically important capabilities including mobile and fixed network infrastructure, Digital Twins, GPU-enabled compute environments, cloud-native platforms, and advanced experimentation environments that accelerate innovation across the organisation.
This is one of three senior technical leadership positions within a highly skilled team of six, combining deep technical expertise with strategic influence. You will play a key role in defining future platform direction, enabling cutting-edge research programmes, and ensuring the organisation has the capabilities required to explore and validate tomorrow's technologies.
This role is based in Ipswich and our hybrid working model means you are expected to be in the office at least three days per week.
