Broadcast Maintenance/IT support Engineer
Location: United Kingdom


I have over 15 years of experience working for top broadcast and telecoms companies, such as the BBC, Arqiva, and Sky, and I have degrees in both broadcast engineering and electronic engineering. I have worked in a variety of technical capacities in post-production, newsroom assistance, live studios, and playout/transmission settings.

I embraced the merging of IT and broadcast as the industry developed, expanding my knowledge of cloud technologies and IT operations—most recently, Sky’s AWS-based cloud playout systems. In high-pressure settings like live news and sports, I have continuously provided dependable, high-performance technical support, guaranteeing seamless operations through proactive maintenance and quick problem solving.
