Daniel Phillips is a seasoned engineering leader with 13 years of experience scaling mobile and platform teams, now serving as Head of Engineering at the BBC after leading Trainline’s platform and European product efforts. He has deep roots in iOS engineering and product-focused delivery, having grown teams, migrated codebases to modern architectures, and driven CI/CD and shift-left testing practices that improved reliability for millions of users. Daniel combines hands-on technical craft—shipping high-quality native apps and bespoke analytics frameworks—with strategic leadership in cross-functional, multinational organisations. He’s comfortable turning contractors into permanent, high-performing teams and aligning Android/iOS and non-technical stakeholders toward shared product goals. An early adopter of event-driven mobile experiences, he also delivered award-winning work (e.g., The Open Championship app) that blends practical engineering with memorable customer experiences.
