About the Job

As a Solution Architect at Allianz Technology, you will define and govern the end-to-end architecture for one or more CRM and sales-focused product tribes within SDW (Sales Digital Workstation), aligning squads around a clear target state and engineering guardrails. You will translate business and customer needs and requirements into modular, scalable, secure architectures, guide solution choices across squads, and ensure non-functional requirements-availability, performance, security, observability, and cost efficiency-are met. Partnering closely with Product Owners, Chapter Leads, Security, and Enterprise Architecture, you will drive architectural runway, manage cross-team technical dependencies, and coach engineers to deliver high-quality, cloud-native solutions that power world-class digital sales experiences for Allianz agents worldwide.

What you do:

- Own the tribe's target architecture and roadmaps for SDW platform capabilities, services, and integrations across multiple Operating Entities (OEs).

- Define architecture principles, patterns, and guardrails (APIs, event-driven architecture, data, security) and ensure adoption across squads.

- Guide solution design for new and evolving SDW capabilities (Angular micro frontends, Spring Boot services, BFF pattern); run design reviews and ensure NFRs are engineered in.

- Align with Enterprise Architecture, CISO, and Platform teams on standards (cloud, networking, IAM via GIAM,



API gateway via Apigee, observability via Dynatrace).

- Orchestrate cross-squad dependencies and shared components (AppShell, EPCs, shared Kafka topics); reduce tech debt through incremental modernization.

- Promote domain-driven design, microservices, BFF patterns, and API-first approaches for scalable, resilient backends and Angular-based micro frontends.

- Champion DevSecOps, CI/CD (Jenkins/GitHub Actions), IaC (Terraform/Helm), and SRE practices (reliability, performance, cost optimization).

- Provide technical leadership and coaching to engineers and solution architects across the tribe; elevate engineering quality.

- Leverage data and AI-assisted insights (e.g., Dynatrace telemetry, defect patterns) to inform architecture decisions and automation.

What you bring:

- 10+ years in software engineering and architecture, including at least 3 years as a Solution/Domain/Tribe Architect leading large-scale digital platforms or CRM systems in a scaled agile environment (e.g., SAFe).

- Deep knowledge of web application architectures (Angular, Micro Frontend/AppShell patterns), API-first and event-driven designs (Kafka, CISL), and integration patterns (BFF, EPC/Anti-Corruption Layer, MFE, Apigee API Gateway); strong domain-driven design skills.





- Cloud architecture expertise (AWS EKS, containers/Kubernetes, Helm), infrastructure as code (Terraform); strong CI/CD and DevSecOps mindset.

- Security and privacy by design (OAuth2/OIDC, OWASP, data protection) plus observability (Dynatrace, logging, metrics, tracing) and performance engineering.

- Proven stakeholder leadership and influencing skills across Product, Engineering, Security, and Operations; excellent English communication.

- Experience working in a globally distributed setup - collaborating with squads, Product Owners, and Enterprise Architecture across Europe and APAC, including regular overlap with Central European business hours.

- Ability to produce pragmatic architecture artifacts (reference architectures, standards, roadmaps) and drive adoption.

- Advanced familiarity with AI and GenAI technologies and their practical use in software architecture and delivery.

What we offer

- We offer a hybrid work model which recognizes the value of striking a balance between in-person collaboration and remote working incl. up to 25 days per year working from abroad.
- We believe in rewarding performance and our compensation and benefits package includes a company bonus scheme, pension, employee shares program and multiple employee discounts (details vary by location).
- From career development and digital learning programs to international career mobility, we offer lifelong learning for our employees worldwide and an environment where innovation, delivery and empowerment are fostered.
- Versátil working, health
