Your impact

• You provide technical and disciplinary leadership for an architecture team of around 10 software and security architects, including senior subject‑matter experts (databases, performance, security, cloud, and integration), and you grow, align, and deploy them where they have maximum impact.
• You harmonize and standardize architecture processes, principles, and decision‑making across multiple AIS DE product lines and ensure they are consistently applied.
• You own and drive the architecture roadmap for cloud, security, AI‑native architectures, and modern software patterns, and you guide the modernization of our system landscape end‑to‑end.
• You lead large‑scale refactoring and modernisation of legacy systems using AI – Claude Code, agents, skills, workflows, pipelines and harnesses – and turn code analysis, dependency untangling, code generation and migration across C++ desktop, Delphi, Uniface and legacy .NET into a repeatable, measurable practice.
• You establish AI tooling as first‑class in the architecture practice and in the products we design, coach architects and experts, set best practices and reference implementations, and build a strong architecture community based on technical excellence and proactive ownership.

Your profile

• Several years of experience as a software or solution architect with proven leadership responsibility for architecture teams or senior architects in enterprise or SaaS environments, including leading specialists for databases, performance, security, cloud, and integration.
• Completed university degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related technical field with excellent academic performance.
• Deep technical expertise in modern software architecture (microservices, cloud‑native, security‑by‑design) in large‑scale, distributed systems and hands‑on experience with large‑scale refactoring and modernization of legacy codebases.
• Proven track record of driving AI adoption in architecture and engineering, specifically using AI for legacy‑system refactoring and modernization; hands‑on familiarity with Claude Code or comparable agentic tools (agents, skills, workflows, pipelines, harnesses, and context engineering) is a strong plus.
• Excellent English and very good German, a clear, decisive communication style, strong technical credibility, a hands‑on mindset, pronounced problem‑solving strength and proactivity, and a clear alignment with our healthcare purpose and entrepreneurial spirit.
