Cloud & DevSecOps Architect (gn)

• You define binding security requirements and baselines for AWS and Azure: landing zones, identity and access, network segmentation, encryption, logging
• You develop reference architectures for secure workloads: business applications, developer platform, AI workloads
• You set standards for secure interfaces, for example authentication, authorization, and securing APIs
• You define security requirements for hybrid transitions between on-prem and cloud, aligned with the Infrastructure Architect

Advisory Support for Implementation

• You conduct security and architecture reviews for new cloud initiatives and Infrastructure-as-Code changes
• You are the dedicated point of contact for Cloud & AI Platforms and Engineering in the matrix model, involved from project start
• You assess deviations and exceptions and escalate to the Head of Cyber Security when requirements are not met
• You advise on architecture decisions, for example on the consolidation of cloud platforms
• You support security incidents within your area of responsibility, for example in cloud environments, pipelines, platforms, or web shop frontends: technical analysis, containment, and lessons learned together with the Security Analysts

DevSecOps - where you help build it yourself

• You design security gates in CI/CD pipelines and help build them: SAST, dependency and container scanning, secrets management
• You introduce and operate Policy as Code and Cloud Security Posture Management
• You develop secure pipeline templates and Terraform modules that teams can use via self-service
• You help shape the Secure Engineering Way of Working for repositories, pipelines, and deployments on GitHub

Enablement, Security Champions, and Governance

• You build and lead a Security Champion program: one point of contact per Engineering, Platform, and Infrastructure team who carries security into day-to-day work
• You empower the champions through training, regular exchange sessions, and practical guides
• You ensure knowledge transfer through reviews, pair programming, and workshops
• You maintain the security architecture documentation as a basis for audits and decisions
• You make impact measurable, for example through the share of pipelines with active security gates and active champions per team

• You bring several years of experience as a Cloud Architect, Platform Engineer, or DevSecOps Engineer in production environments

• You understand Policy as Code, container security, and secrets management
• You are familiar with identity and access concepts, for example Microsoft Entra ID, OAuth2, and OIDC

Personal

• You convince through arguments and good solutions, not through hierarchy
• You think pragmatically: security that slows teams down in their daily work gets bypassed
• You document in a way that allows others to understand and implement your architecture decisions
• You enjoy working across teams with Engineering, Platform, Infrastructure, and Security
• You speak very good German and English

• Room to shape things at a time when we are consolidating cloud platforms and building new security standards
• Real impact: your architecture and your guardrails become the standard for Engineering, Platform, and Infrastructure
