## About the Role

We are looking for someone who is technically credible, customer-facing, and comfortable making decisions under ambiguity. You lead a conversation in a room full of engineers and executives - and earn the trust of both.

 * 7+ years of relevant experience as a Solutions Architect, Senior Cloud Engineer, or Technical Account Manager

 * Broad technical understanding across multiple domains - network, compute, storage, security - you don't need to configure everything yourself, but you need to know when something is wrong

 * Experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, GCP) - OpenStack experience is a strong plus

 * Proven experience leading customer-facing technical engagements - workshops, architecture reviews, blocker resolution

 * Strong written and verbal communication - you can run a customer workshop and write an executive summary the same day

 * Degree in Computer Science, Applied Sciences, or equivalent practical experience

 * Fluent in German and/or English - German is a strong advantage for our public sector and defense customers

## Description

* Customer Engagement Leadership: Own complex technical engagements end-to-end - from requirements intake to validated architecture. You are the primary contact for your customers and responsible for their technical success on SCI.

 * Architecture Recommendations: Develop architecture proposals for demanding infrastructure requirements - network integration, sovereign cloud, security isolation, compute. You make the call and stand behind it.

 * Gap Identification & Product Feedback: Identify platform gaps that block customer success. Translate them into precise specifications for Product Management and Engineering - this is how the platform improves.

 * Buddy Model Leadership: Lead your SA+SE pair. Guide your SE Buddy into the right engagements, review their ADRs, and ensure knowledge stays in the team - not just in one person's head.

 * Reusable Assets: Contribute blueprints and whitepapers that the whole team builds on. Good architectural work should never be redone from scratch.
