Reach of the role
- The Chief Architect heads up the architecture department on 4PS HQ level which consists of all architects in 4PS and is steering the architecture function on all org. level (HQ, Cluster, in-country) directly.
- The architecture department, rooted in 4PS HQ, is functionally accountable for architecture across the 4PS software products.
- One main goal for architecture is to provide more generic functionality into 4PS going forward to contain an ungoverned expansion and complexity of the solution but to ensure simplicity to enable a further growth to go to 10+ more markets (countries) in the next coming years.
- Architecture and Product Management need to work closely together and take the responsibility to front-load the backlogs with the right features and enablers.
