Develop migration concepts for existing engineering applications to the platform.
Interface to the data backbone (custom knowledge graph project, Team Center, and S4E).
Ensure seamless data flow through a definable chain of engineering applications.
Integrate Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software applications, such as CAD systems.
Support the implementation of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) concepts for AI and ML-augmented engineering applications.

Responsibilities

Systematically elaborate functional and non-functional requirements with developers, architects, and product owners of engineering applications.
Develop initial solution architecture that translates identified requirements into technical solutions, adapting the architecture as requirements evolve.
Ensure that all functional and non-functional requirements are met by the architecture.
Derive implementation work packages following the scaled agile framework (features, stories) and support effort estimation.
Provide technical leadership and mentorship to development teams.
Develop reference implementations for critical components and perform code reviews to ensure adherence to coding standards.
Ensure adherence to Siemens Energy software development regulations (i.e., cybersecurity).
Stay up to date with emerging technologies and industry trends, particularly in the area of artificial intelligence.

Skills Required

Experience with implementation of Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA).
Expertise in DevOps practices, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CI/CD) in Azure DevOps, including Infrastructure as Code (IAC).
Experience with Azure Service Bus and container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
Strong software testing knowledge.
Proficiency in C# (.NET) and Python.
Experience in requirement engineering (functional and non-functional).
Strong stakeholder communication and management skills.
Experience in systematic architecture development.
Software architecture certification (e.g., Siemens Software Architect or iSAQB) is a plus.
Experience with the scaled agile framework is a plus.
ArchiMate knowledge is a plus.
