Are you interested in honest, hard work and being part of shaping a traditional company instead of positions of view or other buzzword filled promises? If your answer is yes, you might be the person we are looking for!

We are now looking for a Lead Architect to take hands-on responsibility in planning our to-be architecture of next generation services. You will be working with internal stakeholders, projects and corporate functions to ensure that our plans are well aligned internally and with our global, corporate initiatives.

To succeed in this demanding position you should have strong technical background and know-how.  You will be pulled into many projects of various scopes so ability to grasp concepts and bigger entities quickly is a must. As your understanding of the playground increases you should be able to form a vision on how to link different projects (if possible) to each other under common umbrella. Based on this vision, you will be participating in creation of a multi-year road map, a grand plan, on how our services will be linked together.

On top of this you are a people person – to perform in your demanding position requires you to interact with various stakeholders and project personnel as well as being able to communicate your views clearly. You will be participating and perhaps hosting our common Architect -meetings and forums to share information across the company.

To succeed in this role you should have

  • Technical background and/or understanding of integrations and connections between systems.
  • Preferably you already have at least five years of experience working with IT architecture and software development. Experience from previous Architect role(s) is definitely a bonus.
  • Good knowledge of Visio/PowerPoint or similar tools. A good architecture diagram is worth more than thousand words!
  • Organized way of working with strong can do -attitude.
  • Fluent Finnish and English, spoken and written.
