Graduation: Visual Modelling Techniques for Software Architecture Documentation

Do you have experience in Python?, * Technical study, preferably related to Software Engineering

• Competent programming skills, like C#, C++ and Python
• Independent, pro-active and hands-on
• You have a 'Can-Do' mentality
• Collaborate with the team and organization to achieve the goals

Description of assignment Keeping software documentation clear, structured, and up-to-date is a constant challenge, especially in complex systems with many stakeholders. Traditional documentation often falls short when it comes to maintaining alignment between teams and making onboarding smooth and efficient. That's where visual architecture modelling comes in. Standardised techniques like the C4 model by Simon Brown offer a powerful way to visualise software systems at different levels of abstraction, from high-level overviews to low-level component design. This not only improves understanding across teams, but also ensures consistency and better communication throughout the development lifecycle. Your Mission: Evaluate whether a visual modelling technique like C4 can improve our current software architecture documentation. Department description Vanderlande is a market leading, global partner for logistic process automation. One of Vanderlande's key products is the Loopsorter which exist in a so called Crossbelt sorter & a Helix sorter which Vanderlande develops and produces. See also: Vanderlande CROSSORTER - YouTube . To strengthen Vanderlande's market position the Loopsorter is being developed on continuous base. As part of this continuous development, we have defined this assignment. You will join the Loopsorter Technology Stream. You will be part of one of the agile teams of this Stream, but you will be able to fully focus on your assignment. Tasks/responsibilities * Assessing the fit of visual modelling methods for our environment. * Recommending the most suitable technique based on our needs. * Creating a proof of concept using real parts of our codebase. * Outlining a practical, step-by-step plan for gradual integration into our development workflow and documentation processes.
