Job Summary
In this role, you will plan and manage the development of a scalable technical platform for municipalities, integrating existing solutions into a cohesive structure while overseeing the roadmap and backlog prioritization.
Your role in the team
- We are digitizing Germany's administration! The AKDB is shaping the future of municipal IT in Bavaria. As part of our group-wide transformation program, we are building a shared, scalable technical platform. This platform is the foundation on which we provide a comprehensive range of services for municipalities - from workstation provisioning to operations and security, as well as specialized applications. The first phase focuses on building this platform: existing components and new modules will form a seamless, robust foundation. You will manage this initiative together with a Technical Lead - you will be responsible for product and project leadership, while he or she will handle the technical depth.
- You are significantly advancing the development of our technical platform: you are consolidating previously separate solutions into a unified, scalable foundation and leading them as a platform product on which a comprehensive service offering can be built.
- You are responsible for the platform's roadmap and align it consistently with the services built upon it and their requirements.
- You set up and manage a large agile project - from the project structure through subprojects, work packages, and roadmaps to resource and staffing concepts.
- You lead the project together with a Technical Lead: You are responsible for product and project management, while the Technical Lead provides the technical expertise – together, you make the platform take off.
- You collaborate across various specialized units (Architecture, Cloud, Operations, Security, Business Applications) and consolidate their expertise, resources, and interests into a unified solution.
- You translate the requirements from municipalities, specialized departments, and operations into a prioritized backlog and make understandable prioritization decisions based on business value, effort, dependencies, and risk.
- You are responsible for the development and lifecycle of individual platform components - e.g., Workspace-as-a-Service including device management, central operation of customer infrastructure (monitoring, backup), self-service portal, IT security, as well as communication and collaboration services - as the foundation for the subsequent service portfolio.
- You create decision templates and business cases and present them to management and the steering committee - the project is under high management attention.
- You create transparency regarding the roadmap, interfaces, technical risks, and synergies, and prepare content appropriately for the target audience.

Education

Qualifications
- You are a T-shaped professional: a broad understanding across product, project, architecture, and operations, combined with deep expertise in at least one of these areas.
- You have demonstrably set up and managed large, agile projects or programs — ideally during the development of new platforms or services.
- You have a solid understanding of modern cloud, platform, and infrastructure architectures and think about technical solutions holistically.
- You translate strategic goals into viable product and architecture decisions and present complex issues in an understandable manner.
- You have strong stakeholder management skills, enjoy working collaboratively across multiple departments, and bring together different interests to find a common solution.
- You navigate confidently in a high-visibility environment with management attention and communicate effectively up to the management and steering committee level.
- Ideally, you have knowledge in IT governance, IT security, cloud services, platform operation, or municipal and public IT structures.
- You work in a structured manner, are solution- and result-oriented, and take responsibility, actively shaping a central transformation project.
Experience
- You bring several years of experience in technical product management or platform product management — ideally complemented by experience as a Solution, Cloud, or Enterprise Architect.
- You have experience in developing product visions and roadmaps, prioritizing backlogs, and managing releases — while maintaining a clear separation between the platform and the services built on top of it.
- You have experience in designing scalable, secure, and operable IT solutions and in handling non-functional requirements (security, performance, availability, maintainability).
