Your role in the team
- Define cloud target architectures: You analyze existing application landscapes of our clients, identify modernization potentials, and develop viable target images for cloud architectures before, during, and after migration.

- Design cloud-native solutions: You design cloud-native architectures (e.g., microservices, event-driven, API-First, container/Kubernetes) based on the leading hyperscalers (Azure, AWS, GCP) and, if necessary, also consider German cloud alternatives (e.g., STACKIT, Open Telekom Cloud, IONOS Cloud).
- Take end-to-end responsibility: You oversee projects from early architecture consulting through design and decision-making phases to implementation, transition, and optimization in ongoing operations.
- Manage collaboration with delivery teams: You work closely with development, DevOps, and platform teams, translating architecture guidelines into actionable guardrails and ensuring integration into CI/CD, IaC, and operational processes.
- Advise and persuade stakeholders: You moderate customer workshops (e.g., assessments, target architecture, and architecture workshops), create decision templates, and present architectures tailored to the target audience for business units and management.
