Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- You no longer write Terraform modules—you determine the entire platform on which others develop them.
- As a Senior Cloud Architect at T-Systems Austria, you are responsible for the technical design of business-critical cloud landscapes: landing zones, operating models, security architecture, and multi-cloud strategies for customers who place the highest demands on stability and security.
- Design and ownership of enterprise cloud architectures: landing zones, multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
- Overall technical responsibility for cloud migration projects — from workload assessment to production.
- Represent and document architectural decisions in architecture boards and review committees.
- Close cooperation with pre-sales: Responsible for solution architecture for offers and RFP responses.
- Technical mentoring and architecture reviews for cloud engineers and consultants as a team.

Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- In-depth, proven expertise in at least one hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, or GCP) — you've designed architectures, not just configured.
- Solid understanding of cloud security, governance frameworks, and regulatory requirements (such as GDPR or NIS2).
- Basic knowledge of FinOps: Cloud cost architecture, TCO modeling and cost optimization are part of your architecture decision.
- German C1 and English C1 — you confidently conduct architecture boards and customer presentations in both languages.
- Cloud-native security skills: Zero Trust, CSPM/CNAPP tooling, or Well-Architected Framework Reviews.
- Specialization in regulated sectors (e.g., public administration, KRITIS, financial services) or sovereign cloud architectures.
- Professional/expert level certifications (AWS, Azure, GCP, or CNCF) are an advantage but not a requirement.
Experience
- 5-10 years of experience in cloud architecture, enterprise IT or complex infrastructure consulting.
- Experience in designing and implementing cloud transformations on an enterprise scale.
- Experience in customer contact at CTO or enterprise architect level — you can represent and explain technical decisions.
- Experience with GitOps, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Crossplane) and Kubernetes at platform level.
