The Position

Solution Architect - Roche Digital Technology

Roche Digital Technology (RDT) is where innovation meets purpose. As a global team at the heart of Roche, we are a community of business-minded technologists committed to help shape tomorrow's digital future of healthcare. Our mission is to power Roche through cutting-edge digital technologies, harnessing the potential of artificial intelligence, data, and scalable tech innovations. Driven by purpose and passion, we're building a future where digital is a core strength across all of Roche, enabling smarter ways of working, unlocking human potential, and driving breakthroughs that truly matter for millions of patients around the world.

At Roche, we offer a hybrid work model that combines flexibility with in-person collaboration. For now, we require our employees to be in our offices on average two days per week. The specific office days may vary depending on business needs, such as workshops, conferences, town halls, team meetings, and other collaborative events.

At Roche, we bridge scientific curiosity with technical excellence to accelerate life-changing medicines. As a Solution Architect within RDT Pharma Medicines TechOps, you will design and govern the technical architecture of digital systems supporting Pharma Technical Development (PTD) - spanning drug substance, drug product, quality, and supply chain domains. Your work will ensure that our technology landscape is compliant, scalable, and aligned with Roche's enterprise standards, enabling the seamless transition of PTD systems into the RDT TechOps model.

In this role, you will be the technical authority across a portfolio of GMP and non-GMP applications, translating complex business and scientific requirements into future-ready architectural solutions - while managing technical debt, driving integration strategies, and ensuring our systems remain audit-ready in a regulated environment.

The opportunity:

In this role, you will be responsible for:
* Architectural Leadership: Design business-driven, standards-based, and future-ready solutions for the PTD systems portfolio within a complex, multi-system context. Define and maintain architecture across the full product lifecycle - from transition and stabilization through to steady-state operations and modernization.
* Solution Design & Integration: Develop end-to-end solution designs, managing complex integrations and data flows across the PTD application landscape. Translate high-level business and scientific requirements into detailed solution designs, integration patterns, and actionable technical backlogs.
* GxP & Compliance by Design: Ensure all architectural designs comply with GxP, data privacy, and Roche security standards. Embed compliance-by-design principles into solution architecture, supporting audit and inspection readiness across GMP-critical systems.
* Non-Functional Requirements & Fitness Functions: Define and govern non-functional requirements (NFRs) including performance, availability, scalability, and security. Establish reference architectures, patterns, and Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) across the product portfolio.
* Roadmap & Technical Debt Management: Maintain the architectural vision and technology roadmap for the PTD systems portfolio. Proactively identify and address technical debt, evaluate emerging technologies, and conduct vendor assessments to continuously improve the solution landscape.
* Knowledge Transfer & Documentation: Ensure architectural artifacts, solution design documents, integration data flows, and technical specifications are captured and transitioned as part of the PTD to RDT TechOps knowledge transfer - establishing a reliable source of truth for future scalability.
* Stakeholder Collaboration: Act as a bridge between business stakeholders, product owners, delivery managers, validation leads, and MSP vendors - communicating complex architectural concepts clearly and building consensus across diverse, cross-functional teams.
* Architecture Governance: Align with the RDT architecture community, contributing to governance practices and ensuring that PTD solutions are consistent with Roche enterprise architecture standards and strategic direction.
* Mentorship & Technical Oversight: Provide technical oversight and guidance to product and delivery teams. Mentor colleagues on architectural best practices and contribute to the development of the broader RDT architecture community.

Who you are:

You are a technically deep and pragmatic architect who thrives in complex, regulated environments and is passionate about building scalable, compliant, and business-aligned solutions. You bring:
* A University degree (Bachelor's or Master's) in Computer Science, Information Technology, Life Sciences, or a related field.
* Demonstrated experience designing business-driven, standards-based solutions within a complex or multi-system product context, ideally in a pharmaceutical, biotech, or regulated life sciences environment.
* Experience maintaining solution roadmaps, assessing technology trends, and conducting vendor assessments across a multi-application landscape.
* Proven ability to create conceptual and logical data models, define integration patterns, and govern non-functional requirements and fitness functions.
* Strong understanding of GxP-regulated environments and Computer System Validation (CSV) principles, with the ability to embed compliance-by-design into solution architecture.
* Experience with integration technologies, API design, and data flow management across heterogeneous application landscapes.
* Proficiency in defining and maintaining Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) and contributing to enterprise architecture governance.
* Exceptional communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences and influence stakeholders at all levels.
* A proactive mindset, focused on identifying opportunities to enhance value, reduce technical debt, and drive architectural excellence.
* Full professional fluency in English.
What you get:
* Salary range 14 175-26 325 PLN gross based on the employment contract.
* Annual bonus payment based on your performance.
* Dedicated training budget (training, certifications, conferences, diversified career paths etc.).
* Recharge Fridays (2 Fridays off per quarter available).
* Take time Program (up to 3 months of leave to use for any purpose).
* Vacation subsidy available.
* Flex Location (possibility to perform our work from different places in the world for a certain period of time).
* Take Time for Charity (additional paid leave of maximum 2 weeks to engage in the charity action of your choice).
* Private healthcare (LuxMed packages), group life insurance (UNUM) and Multisport.
* Stock share purchase additions.
* Yearly sales of company laptops and cars and many more!
