Job Summary
In this role, you design architectures for complex IT landscapes with a focus on digital sovereignty. You analyze technological dependencies, create solution architectures, and support their implementation in projects.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- The Information Technology and Network department shapes the technological foundation for the entire ORF — from planning and implementation to the stable operation of core IT services.
- In this environment, you develop architectures for a complex IT landscape where topics such as cloud, integration, and operational security play central roles.
- Digital sovereignty and resilience are becoming increasingly important: It is about consciously managing dependencies, keeping systems sustainable in the long term, and making well-founded architectural decisions.
- As a Solution Architect, you assume a central role.
- You evaluate technologies and architectures in the overall context, develop viable solutions, and oversee their implementation in collaboration with various departments.
- Participation in the development, evaluation, and further development of IT architectures with a focus on digital sovereignty and resilience.
- Analysis and evaluation of technological dependencies (e.g., cloud providers, data flows, operational models) and derivation of action options (e.g., reduction of vendor lock-in).
- Creation, further development, and quality assurance of solution architectures for distributed systems (cloud-native, APIs, eventing).
- Support of projects in technology selection, implementation, and integration of IT solutions, considering architecture guidelines and Non-Functional Requirements (performance, availability, compliance).
- Participation in the development and further advancement of architecture standards and evaluation models (e.g., sovereignty approaches, Make-or-Buy, trade-offs) as well as monitoring technological and regulatory developments.
- Collaboration with Enterprise Architecture, IT Security, Operations, and Business Units, as well as participation in national and international initiatives (e.g., EBU).
