Software Architect, Connectivity (m/f/d)

About The Role As a Software Architect in the Connectivity SBU, you will be responsible for the end-to-end software architecture of a customer-specific telematic unit or related product/component. You will be responsible for coordinating with requirements engineering and the system architects to define the overall software architecture, collaborating with different domains & functional owners to translate the architecture into individual components, and overseeing the implementation to enable a high-quality software delivery to our customers. You will also act as the primary technical interface to the customer. You will play a key role in ensuring process adherence (ASPICE or equivalent) and coordinate with product engineering to identify reusable core assets to improve efficiency.

Your Team This is an individual contributor role (Technical Ladder).

What You Will Do

• Develop/Contribute in defining software design strategy for the area of responsibility (e.g. Project, Domain, BU ENG, Application)
• Identify architectural constraints for the architectural level (project, domain, application) based on technical and organizational requirements and decompose them to architectural levels below
• Develop software architecture for the assigned architectural level, fulfilling the architectural requirements
• Define, develop, and verify that all interfaces to related SW architectural elements are complete
• Describe, evaluate, and verify dynamic behavior and interaction between the related SW architectural elements
• Analyze customer requirements and map them to existing architecture or extend the architecture, starting from the RFQ/RFI phase
• Analyze and address architecturally relevant non-functional requirements
• Ensure traceability and consistency with the system architecture and the software requirements
• Recommend implementation standards and design patterns that support information security and regulatory compliance objectives
• Document key technical requirements for our Telematic Software
• Customer contact for identifying and understanding architectural requirements
• Contribute to the Cybersecurity project efforts
• Support the Cybersecurity Manager in developing different technical work products
• Represent the project for Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment (TARA)
• Make risk treatment decisions
• Derive security requirements from TARA, and maintain the requirements specification for the cybersecurity concept
• Support RFI/RFQ response on cybersecurity activities

What You Need
