Job Summary
In this role, you will plan and steer the transformation of the application landscape, develop modular, cloud-ready architectures, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
Your role in the team
- SIGNAL IDUNA is fundamentally restructuring its business foundation: We are transforming substantial parts of our business processes and application landscape – from core insurance systems to cross-sectional systems – to realize new potentials on a cloud-ready and AI-native technology basis.
- The Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) function serves as a strategic control center: We plan, monitor, and steer the transformation of the entire application landscape and work closely and effectively with the responsible agile teams on key strategic transformation projects and initiatives.
- As an Enterprise Architect (m/f/d), you are the catalyst for this profound transformation. You connect business visions with future-proof architectural concepts and ensure that strategic guidelines are translated into viable solutions.
- Your core responsibilities include, among others:
- You plan and manage strategic transformation initiatives holistically to fundamentally modernize core insurance and cross-sectional systems and transition them into a modular, cloud-ready, and AI-capable target architecture.
- You design, update, and coordinate robust target architectures as well as migration paths, while keeping regulatory requirements such as DORA and industry-specific compliance securely in view.
- In close collaboration with domain and solution architects, initiative leads, and agile teams, you ensure the feasibility, coherence, and high delivery quality of the solutions.
- You define and establish binding architecture principles and standards – from Cloud-Ready and API-First to Data- & AI-Readiness – to avoid siloed solutions and technical legacy issues.
- You continuously analyze the existing application landscape to identify needs for renewal or consolidation early on and to derive specific architectural changes.
- You prepare strategic technology decisions for management and steering committees, represent them convincingly, and communicate complex scenarios in an understandable and business-oriented manner.
