We have a solid technical foundation, including an ISO 27001-certified information security management system, and we are now ready to build the next layer.Who is your future team?You will join a senior team skilled in information architecture and information security, responsible for areas such as our ISO 27001 certification. Together, you form Axis's function for enterprise information architecture, helping us safeguard and enable our information foundation across the company — for both people and systems, AI included.You will work closely with departments, data owners and architects across all business areas, and with senior stakeholders who need a clear, trustworthy picture of the company's information landscape.What you'll do here as Information ArchitectYou will work with the practical building blocks of enterprise information architecture, turning direction and ambition into concrete models, tools, and ways of working.
