Our global Tech team operates in an agile manner within a dynamic product organization. This is your chance to thrive in a collaborative environment, grow through upskilling and continuous development, and play a direct role in shaping the path for our industry.

PR Tech has recently undergone a deep organizational transformation towards an Agile and Product organization. All the technical resources in the organization have been grouped into Chapters around specific technical domains.

Your key missions:

  • Define and oversee global standards, best practices, and guidelines for infrastructure engineering, including architecture and administration for computer systems (on-premise and cloud-based), databases, and data systems.
  • Collaborate with Product Owners to align Chapter skills with the technical evolution of the Infrastructure portfolio.
  • Recruit, mentor, and develop a diverse, high-performing team of infrastructure engineers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
  • Evaluate and recommend new technologies to support the evolution of infrastructure products and promote the Chapter's contribution to value creation within Pernod Ricard.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to optimize resource allocation and capacity planning, ensuring effective integration of Chapter members into agile squads.
  • Manage external vendors, define sourcing strategies, and oversee budgets while driving performance and cost optimization.

If you recognize yourself in the description below, don’t wait to apply!

  • You have 8+ years of experience in infrastructure engineering, including expertise in Azure, AWS, Infrastructure as Code, Linux/Unix administration, and database systems (Oracle, SQL Server, Snowflake, Databricks).
  • You bring 5+ years of people management experience with a proven track record of developing and mentoring team members.
  • You have deep knowledge of system design, performance optimization, scalability, and site reliability engineering (SRE) practices.
  • You are experienced in agile methodologies and have a passion for cross-team collaboration, stakeholder management, and driving innovation.
  • You demonstrate excellent leadership, decision-making, and problem-solving skills in complex, large-scale systems.
