Infrastructure Solution Architect

Vattenfall IT is now looking for an Infrastructure Solution Architect to join our journey towards fossil freedom!

As an Infrastructure Solution Architect, you play a tactical role in translating business and technical requirements into actionable technical solution designs.
You will contribute to both project deliveries and standardized Competence Area capabilities, while ensuring alignment with the domain-level architecture.

Your responsibilities include developing comprehensive end-to-end solution designs and overseeing their implementation. By following Vattenfall IT ISMS and IT Architecture principles, you will ensure that solution designs adhere to enterprise strategies, technical standards, and regulatory and security guidelines.

Collaboration and communication are essential in this role, as it requires engaging with stakeholders at all levels. Whether facilitating high-level discussions on business requirements or deep-diving into technical details, your role is to help ensure alignment between project-specific solutions and domain-level strategies.

Main Tasks and Responsibilities

• Translate business and functional requirements into technical solutions using existing IT services to avoid unnecessary reinvention.

• Design cost-optimized, scalable, and secure end-to-end (E2E) infrastructure solutions aligned with system, business, and security requirements.

• Maintain and document project-specific TO-BE architecture while ensuring alignment with existing AS-IS architecture maintained by the Competence Areas (CAs) and SLAs.

• Develop solutions that adhere to enterprise principles, domain strategies, and security guidelines (e.g., ISMS, zoning, and tiering models).

• Drive consolidation, simplification, and standardization by reusing existing patterns, blueprints, and building blocks, while collaborating with Infrastructure Domain Architects to address gaps.

• Oversee implementation and provide technical guidance during project execution.

• Collaborate closely with IT Security, DevOps teams responsible for application delivery, and operations teams to ensure solution delivery aligns with security requirements and operational standards.
