Job Description

Vattenfall IT is now looking for an Infrastructure Solution Architect to join our journey towards fossil freedom

As an Infrastructure Solution Architect, you play a tactical role in translating business and technical requirements into actionable technical solution designs.

You will contribute to both project deliveries and standardized Competence Area capabilities while ensuring alignment with the domain-level architecture.

Your responsibilities include developing comprehensive end-to-end solution designs and overseeing their implementation. By following Vattenfall IT ISMS and IT Architecture principles, you will ensure that solution designs adhere to enterprise strategies, technical standards, and regulatory and security guidelines.

Collaboration and communication are essential in this role, as it requires engaging with stakeholders at all levels. Whether facilitating high-level discussions on business requirements or deep-diving into technical details, your role is to help ensure alignment between project-specific solutions and domain-level strategies.

Main Tasks and Responsibilities

  • Translate business and functional requirements into technical solutions using existing IT services to avoid unnecessary reinvention.
  • Design cost-optimized, scalable, and secure end-to-end (E2E) infrastructure solutions aligned with system, business, and security requirements.
  • Maintain and document project-specific TO-BE architecture while ensuring alignment with existing AS-IS architecture maintained by the Competence Areas (CAs) and SLAs.
  • Develop solutions that adhere to enterprise principles, domain strategies, and security guidelines (e.g., ISMS, zoning, and tiering models).
  • Drive consolidation, simplification, and standardization by reusing existing patterns, blueprints, and building blocks, while collaborating with Infrastructure Domain Architects to address gaps.
  • Oversee implementation and provide technical guidance during project execution.
  • Collaborate closely with IT Security, DevOps teams responsible for application delivery, and operations teams to ensure solution delivery aligns with security requirements and operational standards.

Our Offer

We offer a challenging and international work environment and the possibility to work with some of the best in the field. You will be working in an interdisciplinary team with colleagues coming from a background of Infrastructure Architecture or Infrastructure Operations (DC). We offer attractive employment conditions and opportunities for personal and professional development.

Qualifications

  • Degree in IT, computer science, or another relevant field
  • Proven experience in a datacenter and IT operations (e.g., server administration, databases, network, operating systems)
  • Proven experience in the Infrastructure Architecture & Design area
  • Technical expertise in IT infrastructure (Server, Storage, Network, Security, Cloud)
  • Strong project background especially in Operational Handover support and guidance
  • Solid understanding of IT Security and applying industry standards
  • Solid understanding of Architectural modeling and using it as a tool to show relevant information to different stakeholders
  • Basic knowledge and experience with Azure Cloud
  • Highly skilled in detailing Solution Designs for IT Infrastructure and ability to create the Architecture design documentation
  • Understanding of ITIL & ITSM processes
  • Skilled in documentation, communication, planning, and coordination
  • Strong Swedish and English skills (spoken & written) are required
  • Experience of working with VMware is a merit
  • Experience in Application Operations is a merit

Your Profile:

You are proactive, driven, and take initiative to drive progress. You thrive in dynamic, international environments with other cultures. As a strong communicator and collaborative problem-solver, you engage effectively with both technical teams and senior management to ensure alignment and architectural consistency. You communicate effectively with diverse stakeholders and are a strong team player who values knowledge-sharing and adaptability to the changing flow of the work environment. You excel at understanding complex situations and business requirements, analyzing problems, and applying a structured approach to find the best IT solutions.
