Senior Specialist IT Enterprise Architecture Job Description

Team/division description:

Information systems (IS) is a truly Pan-European division with members in Toyota's head office, manufacturing plants and country sales organizations. As IS, we contribute to every part of our business from vehicle design through A&F, manufacturing, purchasing to connected navigation and in-car services. The enterprise architecture (EA) department within Information Systems is responsible for supporting application development teams/projects with application, software and infrastructure architecture. EA also supports the developer community with collaboration, (software) development and testing tools. In addition, the team defines IT standards, reference architectures and technology roadmaps for major IT technologies such as cloud, business intelligence, identity management or mobile smartphone applications. Finally, the EA team is also responsible for master data management.

Your responsibilities:

As "Project Architect" you will support application development teams with the definition of application, software and infrastructure architecture. You work with the application project team to understand the (business) requirements (functional and non-functional) and translate this into an architecture taking into account integrations with other applications and or infrastructure tools. You define and motivate technology choices and where required support their evaluation or assist in building and setting up proof-of-concepts. You communicate the software architecture with the project and development teams and with the different teams within our systems engineering department which are responsible for managing IT infrastructure (e.g. servers, network, security). You follow up the software implementation with the application development team throughout the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) and ensure that what gets implemented is compatible with the defined architecture. Although the job may involve occasional software coding work, this should not be considered as the core activity (which is architecture evaluation and definition).
