What you'll do

  • Define the target end-to-end architecture together with prospective insurance customers and guide them from the initial technical analysis through to the signed solution agreement.
  • Present architectural concepts and technical roadmaps convincingly to C-level stakeholders (CTOs, CIOs, CDOs) and act as a trusted advisor and sparring partner for both technical and business decision-makers.
  • Drive technical transformation within the Customer Delivery organization by standardizing architectural practices, introducing modern cloud and SaaS patterns, and enabling delivery teams.
  • Serve as a mentor and technical anchor for Solution Architects and Customer Delivery Managers throughout the entire project lifecycle.
  • Document architectural decisions, requirements, and technical concepts, ensuring long-term knowledge sharing and retention within the Customer Delivery organization.
  • Be responsible for technical communication with all stakeholders—both internal and external—keeping everyone consistently informed and aligned.

What they require

  • At least 8–10 years of experience as an Enterprise Architect, including several years in the insurance industry or a consulting environment focused on insurance.
  • Fluent, business-level communication skills in German (C2/native level) and English (C1 or higher) , both written and spoken, are mandatory.
  • You are comfortable participating in German- and English-speaking C-level discussions and can influence decision-makers as an equal.
  • Deep understanding of cloud architectures (AWS, Azure, or GCP), SaaS delivery models, and modern integration patterns (REST APIs, event-driven architectures, microservices).
  • Proven ability to build strong and trusted relationships with internal and external stakeholders at all levels—from developers to executive board members.
  • A hands-on mindset: even when working strategically, you remain attentive to technical details.
  • Experience with APIs, BPMN, SaaS platforms, AWS technologies, requirements engineering, and the insurance domain is a strong advantage.
