    How will you CONTRIBUTE and GROW?

    Our organization is embarking on a massive digital transformation journey: the E&C ALign Program. By 2027, we aim to deliver a globally integrated digital system for E&C. A core component of this transformation includes migrating our engineering design suite from SmartPlant to AVEVA, alongside the deployment of a new ERP system (Sap/4Hana) and a Project & Portfolio Management (PPM) tool.We are seeking a Product Portfolio Architect to act as the Coordinator during the critical Design, Build & Deployment phases of the E&C ALign Program. This role ensures that the technical specifications provided to our System Integrators (SIs) are cohesive across our four domains (Project
    Management, Engineering, Sales&Technologies, and Manufacturing/OT) and that the resulting architecture is robust, scalable, and fully maintainable when handed over to the DDS InnoTech for "Run Mode." The Product Portfolio Architect will also be acting for the harmonization of the business applications within InnoTech perimeter, and the initiation of the related projects.

    Ensure with the Integration and Architecture team the overall architecture compliance and coherency.

    2. Ensure the Maintainability & Operational Readiness of the portfolio

    Identify and mitigate technical debts or over-customizations proposed by System Integrators or E&C Business representatives that could complicate the “run” phase and/or future software upgrades.

    3. Secure DDS delivery to the Align Program

    Manage Leadership & Stakeholder Management

    Work in a matrixed environment under the guidance of the E&C ALign IT Project Manager and the E&C ALign Design Authority to ensure project milestones are met on time and within scope. Collaborate with Business Process Owners (BPOs) and the Design Authority to ensure the technical

    architecture actually supports the targeted "One E&C Mindset" global processes, and that the business requirements are not exceeding the actual needs. Apply Product Management principles to the integrated EPC toolset, treating the overarching IT ecosystem as a holistic product delivering end-to-end value. Liaise with the Architecture Director, the Head of the Core Business Domains, the EPC Program Director, the transversal services Director and DDS VP.

    4. Rationalize the Digital Solutions portfolio @ InnoTech

    Serve as the forward-looking integration lead to prepare for driving the strategic harmonization of IT applications when relevant.

    Assess opportunities for consolidation, cost savings, and standardization with Domain Managers and Product Managers.
