Do you want to join an industry leader within cybersecurity and drive important, cutting-edge projects within the field? Then we have the perfect opening for you!

We’re now looking for a Solution Architect for Application Delivery Control to join us – a flexible networker with a collaborative mindset and a curiosity for innovation and improvements.
What’s in it for you?

So, let’s talk about the job
You take care of strategy and implementation, ensuring stable operations for all applications using F5. Your responsibility includes:
Developing and anchoring of technical roadmaps
Managing the lifecycle of the product and services
Validating the quality and design of solutions suggested by our suppliers and partners

To find appropriate technology, solve technical issues and optimize output of our solution designs, you map business requirements into technology solutions through interaction with the business, IT solution stakeholders, vendors and industry experts. You ensure that the designed solutions are successfully implemented by supporting project teams to confirm system evolution and delivery as maintainable finished solutions. Your mission includes reviewing the current technology architecture landscape and seeking new ways to leverage, improve and/or extend corporate technology investments, and you research new and emerging technologies for practical application to business problems and strategic initiatives. You also take part in driving our architectural standards and you bring your technical knowledge as you contribute to various cybersecurity projects.
Where’s the office?
You’ll have flexible working conditions, but for this job, your base is in either Sandviken or Kista (Stockholm). As your colleagues and our partners are spread across different locations, some travel could be included during normal circumstances.
What we need from you
As much as we truly value your customer centric, can-do attitude, you obviously need previous experience from the field, and to thrive in this role we see that you have:
At least five years’ work experience as a solution architect, most likely within cybersecurity, and proven technical aptitude in F5
Understanding of network security and ITIL processes
Good understanding of technical products and components, and an ability to evaluate, future proof and apply them for service effect
An ability to lead and co-ordinate technical development and maintenance of products or services

Good knowledge of LTM, APM and ASM as well as BigIQ is a plus. Experience from an international, complex organization with multiple stakeholders and suppliers, lots of requirements and shifting needs is also useful. You easily connect with people and build trusting relations, and you’re skilled in explaining technical information in ways that makes sense for everyone. Naturally, this means that you communicate fluently in English, while knowledge of Swedish is an advantage.
