The Position

Job description

The Domain Architect for ERP Cross Value Stream focusing on the ERP Core, Emerging Technologies & AI is a senior, pivotal role embedded directly within the Enterprise Platforms, Infrastructure & Engineering (EPIE) ERP function. You will champion our enterprise architecture practices while possessing an expert understanding of the unique systems and processes that drive the comprehensive landscape of AI within Roche and its adoption within ERP along with other Emerging Technologies.

Positioned at the critical intersection of enterprise strategy and product-level execution, you act as the catalyst that turns high-level architectural vision into tangible reality. Crucially, you will serve as the principal orchestrator of the Solution and System Architecture network within the ERP Technology network. By leading this network of embedded architects and collaborating closely with the other ERP and non-ERP Domain Architects, you will drive local architecture governance, ensure enterprise coherence, and translate business goals into robust, adaptable, and future-ready technology solutions.

Description of the Area

The ERP Technology Value Stream area is responsible for ensuring that IT strategies are deeply integrated into the assigned business units to improve efficiency, ensure compliance, and drive innovation in how we procure globally. This involves deep integration with engineering teams across ERP Technology, ERP System Management and ERP Cross-functional.

This architectural role ensures that overarching RDT and ERP visions are effectively translated into these Technology areas seamlessly, collaboratively, and highly effectively.

Job Responsibilities

• Solution Architecture Network Orchestration: Serve as the primary leader and orchestrator of the System and Solution Architecture network within the Technology sub-domains. Align and coordinate the work of the embedded architects, ensuring a cohesive community that moves fast with local autonomy while remaining aligned through shared principles and platforms.
• Strategic SPG Collaboration & Bridging: Act as the vital architectural link between your operational area and the central Strategy, Portfolio & Governance (SPG) organization. Partner closely with the SPG Domain Architects to ensure that enterprise-level capability maps, maturity assessments, and target-state blueprints are practically translated into your area's execution roadmaps.
• Critical Program Delivery & ERP Success: Champion the seamless execution of large, critical technology programs within the ERP Technology functions. Actively bridge the gap between high-level strategy and technical execution, providing the architectural oversight needed to ensure transformative initiatives achieve their intended business value.
• Local Architecture Governance Leadership: Provide leadership for architecture governance activities across the Technology landscape as a member of the ERP Cross Architecture Authority. Manage High-Level Solution Designs and technology guardrails - including responsible AI integration, model usage, and data governance patterns - ensuring local initiatives embed critical non-functional requirements (security, resilience, data privacy, GxP compliance) without creating unnecessary bottlenecks.
• Sub-Domain Architecture Deliverables: Take overall accountability for the development and maintenance of core architecture artifacts for the technology areas. Ensure solution designs are fit for purpose, compliant with quality standards, and aligned with overarching enterprise standards. Proactively own and manage technical debt by identifying opportunities for refactoring or modernization within the ERP landscape.
• Technology Innovation & AI Adoption: Drive the architectural vision, strategy, and roadmap for emerging technologies, focusing on Enterprise AI, Agentic AI, and generative capabilities across both SAP (e.g., SAP Business AI, Joule) and major cloud ecosystems (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP). Stay abreast of vendor developments to ensure our architectural runway remains innovative, nimble, clean-core aligned, and future-proof.
