Tasks
- Shape the technical solution with the customer, including their enterprise architects and IT leads.
- Turn business requirements into a clear, implementable specification.
- Drive requirements to clarity, relentlessly. Chase the customer's IT organization until an answer is specific enough to build on.
- Configure integrations on our platform where the standard covers it, and document what you have configured.
- Identify precisely where the standard does not cover a requirement, and judge whether it belongs in configuration or in the product.
- Identify major development needs and technical roadblocks early, and escalate them to the Senior Project Manager and into the steering committee while there is still time.
- Prepare those discussions with the customer: make the implications clear, and bring options rather than a refusal.
- Prepare scope decisions with options, effort and consequences, and bring a clear recommendation to the steering committee or to our engineering leadership.
- Specify what the Integrations Engineer builds at the customer, and resolve the constraints they bring back from the real system.
- Make the case for what should be built once for everyone, hand it to our Product Engineers with a proper specification, and confirm it solves the problem it came from.
- Support the Senior Project Manager and Project Manager on technical feasibility, effort and sequencing.
- Stay on the account through the first go-live, and hand over a solution design that is documented and maintainable.
- Feed recurring customer requirements back to Product so the standard grows in the right direction.
Requirements
- Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field.
- 4+ years of experience in solution design, technical consulting, enterprise integration or a technical product role.
- Solid understanding of enterprise system landscapes: ERP systems, interfaces, master data, and how data actually moves between them.
- Hands-on experience configuring integrations on an integration platform, or comparable low-code or configuration-driven work.
- Experience writing specifications that engineers can build from without a translation layer.
- Track record of driving technical clarity in a project setting, including escalating early and constructively.
- Comfortable in customer-facing technical discussions with senior IT stakeholders.
- Fluent in German and English, spoken and written.
- Bonus points for hands-on experience with SAP, Microsoft Dynamics or comparable ERP systems, or with e-invoicing and EDI standards.
