What are the responsibilities and job description for the Solution Architect – Platform Adoption & Migration position at Siemens Digital Industries Software?
We are a leading global software company dedicated to the world of computer aided design, 3D modeling and simulation— helping innovative global manufacturers design better products, faster! With the resources of a large company, and the energy of a software start-up, we have fun together while creating a world class software portfolio. Our culture encourages creativity, welcomes fresh thinking, and focuses on growth, so our people, our business, and our customers can achieve their full potential.
About The Role
We are looking for an experienced Solution Architect to join a high-impact developer platform enablement team driving large-scale transformation across the organization.
In this role, you will operate at the intersection of client enablement, solution architecture, and platform adoption, helping engineering teams successfully onboard to modern developer platforms and improve their software delivery workflows.
A key focus will be supporting large-scale source control and developer tooling migrations (e.g. Git-based platforms). In parallel, you will drive broader adoption across CI/CD, developer tooling ecosystems, and workflow optimization — ensuring teams not only migrate, but effectively leverage the platform.
You will work closely with engineering teams to translate complex environments into practical solutions, while identifying patterns and standardizing approaches that can be reused across the organization. The goal is not to deliver one-off implementations, but to create scalable solutions that transform how the organization adopts and uses the platform.
Beyond technical implementation, you will play a critical role in reducing developer friction, improving productivity, and enabling teams to operate independently on the platform.
Key Responsibilities
Client Engagement & Ownership
Why us?
Working at Siemens Software means flexibility - Choosing between working at home and the office at other times is the norm here. We offer great benefits and rewards, as you'd expect from a world leader in industrial software.
A collection of over 377,000 minds building the future, one day at a time in over 200 countries. We're dedicated to equality, and we welcome applications that reflect the diversity of the communities we work in. All employment decisions at Siemens are based on qualifications, merit, and business need. Bring your curiosity and creativity and help us shape tomorrow!
