Do you want to shape the future of construction through digital transformation? As a Solution Architect at NCC you'll get the opportunity to work in an environment influenced by sustainability, digitalization, and innovation.
We are building for the future – can you help us enhance our business competitiveness?
Your role and key responsibilities
As Solution Architect your main responsibility is to ensure that solution design meets business requirements, as well as IT operational and non-business requirements. You will work closely with for example NCC business stakeholders, Enterprise Architects and suppliers where you need the ability to both understand and explain what impact a specific solution will have on the business environment.
In short, in this role your communication skills are essential, and it is expected that you are used to manage many stakeholders simultaneously to drive the solution design effectively.
As a Solution Architect at NCC, you have professional development possibilities within leadership in two different roles, e.g. Team Lead of a Solution Architect-team for a functional area and Release Solution Lead for coordination of the solution for large and complex scopes.
As Solution Architect you will
Deliver solution architecture – i.e. design documentation covering several viewpoints like process, application, information and infrastructure.
Act as a key member of project teams and provide leadership in solution design and ensure the expected quality and cross functional alignment.
Construct solution designs based on the principle of "minimal viable product" whenever possible. This to secure an iterative end-to-end delivery to the business.
Follow the architecture principles, guidelines and frameworks defined by NCCs IT strategy and enterprise architecture – e.g. Integration, Security and Master data.
Participate in architecture forums to provide input to the ongoing development and continuous work developing the solution architecture practice.
Additionally, as Team Lead you will
Collect and funnel architectural work in development needs from both project and product portfolio needs
Identify and secure resources needed in collaboration with Practice Lead and Competence Manager based on assignments and delivery plans
Support Product Owners in the functional area to define architectural work in the mid and long-term product roadmap
Break down long term roadmaps and goals to shorter activities in the team backlog, in a prioritized order according to NCC development prioritization
Apply methods and tools, that are in line with the defined strategy in the Solution Architecture practice, in the team
Propose improvements in Solution Architecture-practice and in need of collaboration with other practices
About Finance & IT

Finance & IT is NCC’s development and delivery function for IT as well as operations development and research & innovation. We are a Nordic organization working together closely under one common management. Cooperation in- and between units is key for us to deliver value to NCCs business areas, and therefore we have adapted an Agile team-based setup with focus on collaboration, people and efficient delivery and development.
