We are dedicated to providing internal digitalization opportunities, strategic platforms, and engineering competencies that will drive efficiency and long-term competitiveness.
We are now seeking a Product Development Data Architect to establish, full-fill and maintain our data and information strategy. The role belongs to our Data & Process Foundation Office, a new Organization within TIN, with the mission to support and scale new demands in the product development data and information stream.

You will need to identify the types of data required at each stage of development, such as customer requirements, design specifications, testing results, and market analysis. Knowing where this data comes from and how it needs to be processed is critical for effective architecture.
