**Platform Evolution & Compliance**

*   Drive platform scalability, reliability, and long-term sustainability.
*   Integrate automated compliance and security checks into pipelines.
*   Document platform evolution decisions in the Atlassian Stack.

**Cross-functional Collaboration & Enablement**

*   Strong knowledge of cloud platforms (OpenStack, AWS, Azure).
*   Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to collaborate across functions.
*   Fluent in English and good German skills.
*   Located in Switzerland (mandatory).  

**Bonus Points**
*   Pre-sales or customer-facing architecture experience.
*   Background in regulated environments (ISO, SOC2, GDPR).

*   A strategic, high-impact role in a Swiss tech scale-up.
