You will be the central figure in transforming how TSE creates, manages, and activates its vast library of digital assets, directly enabling our mission to become a global, award-winning sports and entertainment leader.

Duties and Responsibilities

Strategic & Architectural Leadership

  • Develop, own, and execute the long-term technology roadmap for TSE's intelligent media ecosystem, ensuring alignment with our overarching business strategy and goals.
  • Serve as the principal architect for the integrated VAST Data, NVIDIA, and Microsoft Azure platform, making key decisions on technology, design, and implementation to ensure a secure, scalable, and high-performance environment.
  • Lead the continuous research, evaluation, and integration of emerging Generative AI technologies, models, and methodologies to maintain TSE's competitive edge and future-proof our operations.
  • Develop and manage the annual capital and operational budgets for the media ecosystem, ensuring optimal allocation of resources and delivering a clear return on investment.

Ecosystem Implementation & Operations

  • Lead the hands-on implementation, deployment, and lifecycle management of the end-to-end media data pipeline, from content ingest and processing to AI-powered analysis, enrichment, and distribution.
  • Establish and oversee robust MLOps practices for the training, fine-tuning, deployment, and monitoring of custom generative models on TSE's proprietary data, leveraging tools within the NVIDIA and Azure AI platforms.
  • Ensure the ecosystem is secure, scalable, resilient, and compliant with all relevant data governance, digital rights management, and ethical AI policies
  • Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and robust incident management processes to minimize downtime and optimize service availability for all creative and broadcast operations.
  • Creative Partnership & Workflow Integration

  • Act as the primary technology partner and strategic advisor to TSE's digital, creative, broadcast, and marketing teams, embedding yourself to deeply understand their workflows, content needs, and strategic objectives.
  • Collaborate directly with creative stakeholders to design, prototype, and implement AI-driven tools and workflows that accelerate content creation, automate metadata tagging, enable intelligent search, and unlock new creative possibilities.
  • Champion the adoption of the new platform across the organization, acting as an evangelist for its capabilities and providing comprehensive training, documentation, and support to drive user engagement and proficiency.
  • Team Leadership & Vendor Management

  • Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing, cross-functional team of engineers and specialists responsible for building and maintaining the media ecosystem. Internal and external.
  • Foster a culture of innovation, excellence, collaboration, and proactive problem-solving that is deeply aligned with TSE's core values of accountability, courage, excellence, impact, inclusion, and passion.
  • Own and manage the strategic relationships with our key technology partners, including VAST Data, NVIDIA, Cisco and Microsoft, ensuring TSE maximizes the value of these partnerships.
  • Qualifications, Skills and Education

    Required Experience

  • A minimum of 5-8 years of progressive experience in technology leadership, with at least 3-5+ years in a senior or lead role overseeing media technology, data engineering, MLOps, or AI / ML systems architecture.
  • A proven and demonstrable track record of successfully architecting and delivering large-scale, complex technology projects from concept through to production, preferably within a high-volume media, broadcast, sports, or entertainment environment.
  • This role requires a unique, hybrid expertise across media workflows, high-performance computing, data engineering, and applied AI. Candidates will likely have a background in R&D at a major media company, a high-end VFX studio, or a solutions architecture role at a leading technology vendor (e.g., NVIDIA, Microsoft, AWS).
  • Technical Architecture & Engineering Expertise

  • Expert-level knowledge of designing, implementing, and managing high-performance storage solutions for large-scale unstructured data (direct, hands-on experience with the VAST Data platform is highly preferred). Must have strong experience with cloud storage solutions, with Microsoft Azure being strongly preferred.
  • Expert-level knowledge of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop) and experience with Adobe's APIs for workflow automation and integration with DAM / MAM systems.
  • Deep, hands-on experience with the NVIDIA AI platform, including GPU-accelerated computing (CUDA), the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software suite, and key frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow).
  • Proven expertise in designing and deploying scalable AI / ML solutions on a major cloud platform (Microsoft Azure is strongly preferred), including experience with services like Azure Machine Learning and Azure AI Foundry.
  • Strong, current understanding of modern AI architectures and techniques, including Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), vector databases, and agentic AI systems.
  • Proficiency in MLOps, CI / CD principles, and infrastructure automation tools (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform).
  • Leadership & Collaboration Skills

  • Demonstrated ability to act as a bridge and translator between highly technical engineering teams and creative, non-technical stakeholders. Must show evidence of building strong, collaborative partnerships that lead to successful technology adoption.
  • Exceptional communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate a compelling technology vision and report on progress and ROI to executive leadership.
  • Proven experience as a change agent and evangelist, with a history of successfully driving the adoption of new technologies and workflows within a complex organization.
  • Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field is required. Equivalent professional experience will be strongly considered.
  • Physical Requirements

  • Sitting at a desk and computer for long periods of time.
  • Bending, standing, reaching, kneeling, and lifting technology equipment and office materials.
  • Walking throughout the stadium facility, sometimes for an extended period of time.
  • Work Environment
