You play a key architectural role in a major transformation programme modernising production sites and implementing a new ERP and MES landscape. You work across multiple project teams, translating functional and non-functional needs into robust solution designs that fit the organisation’s reference architecture and future roadmap.
Your focus is on designing end‑to‑end solutions, guiding decisions, managing architectural risks, and ensuring the delivered systems align with enterprise standards and business needs.
Solution Design & Delivery
You design scalable, secure and maintainable IT solutions that support manufacturing, supply chain and production operations.
You translate business requirements into clear architectural deliverables and align these with enterprise architecture principles.
Stakeholder Alignment & Governance
You ensure buy‑in for your architectural decisions from project teams, operational teams and business stakeholders.
You identify risks, evaluate solution alternatives, and guide stakeholders toward informed decisions.
You document architecture decisions using standard artefacts and participate in relevant governance boards.
Project Collaboration
You work across ERP, MES and production‑related tracks to ensure consistency in processes, integrations and data flows.
You monitor solution implementation to ensure compliance with your designs and support project managers with progress reporting.
Architecture Evolution
You contribute to the continuous improvement of the application landscape, ensuring that the target architecture advances with business needs and relevant IT innovations — especially for manufacturing, shop‑floor systems, integrations and automation.
