  • Monitor developments in the tech industry, including innovations in AI, machine learning, encryption, and data management, to anticipate and advise on future regulatory challenges.
  • Proactively manage internal relationships to help define business-relevant research programmes and maximise the application of findings, including by effectively communicating with non-technical audiences.
  • Represent Ofcom and advocate for the role of technology across a range of external industry and policy working groups, in order to shape the technology debate, the regulatory landscape and inform national policy.
Requirements
  • Practical and theoretical expertise in the architectures, integration strategies, deployment models and operation of online networks and systems.
  • Understanding of key concepts in Safety by Design, cybersecurity, encryption standards and data privacy practices with practical knowledge of how these areas affect online safety.
  • Practical knowledge of the operation of technical tools and techniques used in online content moderation, including AI-driven systems for text, image and video analysis, and methods such as hash matching, keyword detection and rule-based filters.
  • Knowledge of assessment techniques to evaluate the performance and scalability of technology systems related to content moderation and user safety.
  • Experience of working in a technical or advisory role, with a focus on online safety, digital security, or internet governance is desirable.
  • Articulating Ideas: The ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable insights for non-technical audiences, including internal and external stakeholders, consumers, and policy areas.
Qualifications
  • Educated to at least degree level (or equivalent) in a relevant engineering or science subject but candidates with evidence of equivalent demonstrable skills and experience in required specialist knowledge areas will also be considered.
