What awaits you/ Job Profile
We are looking for a strong Platform Engineering Lead to own the technical engineering of the Codebeamer Platform at BMW. You own the engineering side of the platform: code-level fixes and changes building and maintaining integrations and interfaces governing how the platforms APIs are used and the technical execution of upgrades and the cloud migration. The functional configuration of Codebeamer is owned by the business units your focus is the technical platform integrations and architecture.
On top of run and maintenance a changing portfolio of technical and architecture initiatives lands with the team for example integrating a purchased AI capability (now in stable operation) provisioning platform data into a central data hub designing API gateways so the REST API is used correctly and engineering the cloud migration. The concrete topics change over time; what stays constant is the nature of the work: technical and architecture questions you can understand frame classify challenge plan and orchestrate.
We are looking for a lead who is genuinely at home across software architecture AI cloud and on-premise solutions general fluency not building from scratch. This is not a purely steering role: you lead a team of specialists and stay hands-on on your focus topics leading by doing.
What should you bring along
Code & Interface Engineering fix and change code; implement code-level fixes that come out of operations incident/problem analysis; build roll out and maintain interfaces and integrations.
Technical & Architecture Initiatives take ownership of the changing portfolio; scope a new topic classify impact and risk challenge assumptions and orchestrate delivery; hold the architecture view across the platform.
API & Integration Architecture govern REST API usage; design gateways/abstraction layers that protect the platform; integrate via REST and OSLC with the BMW system landscape.
Data & Solution Architecture drive data initiatives (e.g. provisioning platform data into a central data hub); evaluate integrate and bring solutions live then transition to operation; make data-driven trade-off decisions.
Version Upgrades own the technical execution of Codebeamer upgrades; analyse impact on integrations and gateways; coordinate cutover with the Operational Lead.
Cloud Migration (Engineering) drive the technical migration (application to Azure Oracle database to OCI); validate and refine the target architecture against real-world constraints.
Engineering Standards & Quality set and enforce coding standards reviews and definition-of-done; drive test automation and quality gates.
DevOps & CI/CD build and maintain pipelines; drive Infrastructure as Code and automated repeatable deployments.
Team Leadership & Orchestration lead mentor and grow the team while staying hands-on on key focus topics.
Go-Live Gateway Reviews assess business-unit releases for technical soundness and future operability; expand technical acceptance criteria; challenge designs that are hard or risky to run.
Collaboration & Documentation partner with the business units Product Owner Agile Master Operational Lead and Munich; maintain solution designs and interface specifications.
Must have technical skill
Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Software Engineering or a related field.
8 years in software engineering / technical roles including technical lead responsibility on enterprise platforms.
Strong software-architecture and engineering foundation genuinely at home across software architecture AI cloud and on-premise solutions (general fluency: understanding options integrating purchased solutions judging fit and trade-offs).
Able to understand frame assess critically challenge plan and orchestrate technical solutions and to lead hands-on on focus topics (not a pure steering role).
API & integration architecture REST APIs including designing gateways / managed performant API usage; OSLC a strong plus.
Solid programming/scripting ability e.g. Java (Codebeamers technology base) plus Python/Groovy/Bash; able to read review and assess code.
Database & SQL skills Oracle preferred (our target including ); ability to adapt to alternatives such as PostgreSQL; query analysis and optimization.
Cloud engineering building or migrating enterprise applications to a public cloud (Azure and OCI are our targets).
Data & integration architecture moving/provisioning data between systems.
CI/CD IaC and version control Git plus Jenkins GitLab CI or Azure DevOps; automated repeatable deployments.
Experience operating maintaining and extending a purchased enterprise platform Codebeamer strongly preferred (or Polarion JIRA Azure DevOps DOORS Next).
Strong analytical debugging and performance-troubleshooting skills.
Technical leadership leading engineers/specialists code reviews mentoring owning technical outcomes.
Fluent in English (written and spoken); German is a plus.
Good to have technical skills
Hands-on Codebeamer experience (administration REST API RPE upgrades performance tuning).
API management / gateway technologies (e.g. Azure APIM Kong NGINX).
OSLC and ALM/PLM integration experience in an automotive context.
Experience with PTC products and vendor collaboration on technical issues/roadmap.
Data platform & integration experience provisioning data to a data hub/lake.
Evaluating integrating and operating AI solutions (including purchased AI that integrates into a platform).
Knowledge of BMW IT processes and the system landscape.
