This is a highly collaborative role involving close cooperation with client-side architects, security specialists, and other technical stakeholders. The position is focused on technical architecture and solution design rather than business analysis or requirements prioritization.

Proven experience designing end-to-end IAM/IGA architectures in enterprise environments.
Experience delivering and designing at least five IAM/IGA architecture implementations.

Strong knowledge of: ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, NIS2, KRITIS.
Experience identifying and managing technical risks, dependencies, and architectural challenges.
Strong analytical, architectural, and problem-solving skills.

Nice to Have:

Experience in the energy, utilities, or critical infrastructure sectors.
Previous involvement in KRITIS-regulated environments.
Consulting background within complex IAM/IGA transformation or implementation programs.
Experience with large-scale identity modernization initiatives.
Familiarity with cloud-based IAM ecosystems and hybrid identity architectures.

Scope of Services:

Design, develop, and continuously improve the overall IAM/IGA architecture.
Create technical solution concepts and define integration strategies for IAM/IGA ecosystems.
Ensure a coherent and scalable end-to-end architecture across all identity-related services and platforms.
Design interfaces and integration mechanisms between IAM/IGA solutions and connected enterprise applications.
Identify architectural risks, dependencies, technical constraints, and mitigation strategies.
Ensure architectural compliance with security policies, regulatory requirements, and industry standards, including: ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, NIS2, KRITIS.
Collaborate with client-side architects, security experts, and technical teams to drive architectural decisions.
Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance throughout the entire solution lifecycle.
Support governance processes and ensure architectural consistency across the program.
Review solution designs and recommend improvements in line with security and compliance requirements.
