Solutions Architect - ICX

Intelligence Center X is Siemens' platform for the agentic enterprise

The next wave of enterprise software isn't about writing more code — it's about giving organizations the tools to combine trusted data, AI, and applications into systems that can reason and act on their own. Intelligence Center X delivers that today, through five capabilities — an Enterprise Knowledge Graph, AI/ML, agentic application development, orchestration, and governance — that together move enterprises from static software to intelligent, autonomous systems.

For the customers we serve, that shift shows up in very concrete ways: engineers and data leaders who can finally find and trust the data buried across decades of enterprise systems; teams that go from idea to working application in days instead of quarters; and AI initiatives that move out of pilot purgatory and into production because the underlying data and governance can actually support them. Whether you're building this platform, proving its value to customers, or bringing it to market through our partner ecosystem, your work directly drives those outcomes for some of the most complex organizations in the world.

This is one of the most ambitious enterprise AI platforms in the market — built on decades of deep domain expertise across industries as varied as manufacturing, banking, insurance, financial services, and healthcare, and already running in production at real scale for organizations with some of the most demanding data and compliance requirements in the world. If you want to work at the intersection of enterprise AI, knowledge graphs, and agentic applications — with real customers and real production stakes, across nearly every major industry — this is where that work is happening.

Solution Architect

Position Overview

The Solution Architect is the technical leader for customer engagements delivered by Siemens Professional Services. Working across industries and a broad portfolio that includes Intelligence Center X (ICX), SLC, Mendix, and other Siemens Digital Industries Software offerings, this role translates business outcomes and process needs into secure, scalable, and supportable solution architectures.

The role leads solution definition from discovery through design, build, integration, validation, deployment, and transition. The Solution Architect governs the integrity of the end-to-end solution, aligns customer and delivery teams around clear architectural decisions, and ensures that functional and non-functional requirements are implemented using Siemens methods, standard capabilities, and reusable patterns wherever practical.

Success requires hands-on architecture leadership, strong customer communication, disciplined technical governance, and the ability to orchestrate applications, data, AI, integrations, and workflows into a coherent solution that can be operated and expanded over time.

Key Responsibilities

1. Discovery and Solution Definition

Lead technical discovery workshops to understand customer processes, business outcomes, users, data, systems, constraints, and measures of success.

Partner with the Engagement Manager, Sales, Presales, and customer stakeholders to convert value hypotheses and high-level scope into an executable solution approach.

Define the end-to-end architecture across relevant Siemens and customer capabilities, including applications, data, integrations, AI, workflow, identity, security, and operational considerations.

Establish the solution vision, architecture principles, major design decisions, assumptions, dependencies, and acceptance criteria.

Identify where standard product capabilities, configuration, extension, or custom development should be used, favoring maintainable and upgradeable patterns.

Create solution-definition deliverables that provide sufficient clarity for estimation, planning, build, testing, deployment, and support.

2. Architecture and Design Governance

Own the technical integrity and coherence of the complete solution, including components delivered by Siemens, customers, partners, and distributed teams.

Author and govern architecture documents, functional and technical specifications, interface designs, data models, decision records, and implementation guidance.

Define and validate non-functional requirements such as security, performance, scalability, availability, traceability, usability, and supportability.

Lead design reviews and ensure implementation decisions remain aligned with the approved architecture, scope, and customer outcomes.

Manage technical debt and deviations by documenting rationale, impact, risk, mitigation, and required approvals.

Maintain traceability from requirements and business processes through design, configuration, integration, testing, and acceptance.
