You should have a proven ability to think strategically, connecting technical solutions to business value and customer objectives, and demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of presenting complex technical concepts to C-level executives. A strong understanding of cloud-native architectures, SaaS solutions, ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Salesforce, Dynamics CRM, ServiceNow), cybersecurity fundamentals, API ecosystems, and legacy on-premise enterprise architectures is essential. Proficiency in data architecture, integration patterns, and development languages such as SQL and Python is also required. A Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, along with fluency in German and English, is mandatory; additional language skills in Spanish, French, or Italian are advantageous.
