As a Cloud Solution Architect, you will be responsible for designing and evolving the architecture of our IoT cloud platform, ensuring it remains scalable, secure, and aligned with evolving business and regulatory needs.

You act as a central technical authority, bridging product teams, development teams, and external partners, and ensuring end-to-end architectural consistency across our ecosystem.

You will play a key role in continuously improving the Onecta platform architecture, adapting it to new use cases such as integrations, APIs, data-driven services, and regulatory requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Take into account regulatory requirements (e.g. CRA, NIS2) and operational constraints

Design with observability, maintainability, and operational supportability in mind

Collaborate with security and operations roles to ensure production readiness

Collaboration & coordination

Work closely with development teams, product owners, and other architects to ensure implementation aligns with architecture

Act as a technical counterpart towards external partners and suppliers

Support and guide teams in making consistent architectural decisions

Facilitate architecture reviews and cross-team alignment

Operational awareness

Stay connected to real-world platform behavior (incidents, performance issues, operational feedback)

Ensure architecture decisions consider run-time implications and support processes

Contribute to improving platform stability and operational efficiency
