We are looking for a Head of Technology (Industrial IoT & AI) to join Endress+Hauser Digital Solutions and shape the
technology direction for connected products, digital services and artificial intelligence. Based in Reinach,

process-industry data.
What is the role about?
Are you excited by the opportunity to shape technology strategy across connected products, digital services and AI? Do
you enjoy turning complex technology landscapes into clear architectures, priorities and roadmaps? Can you bring
together technical leaders and engineering teams across products, platforms and locations to create scalable solutions?
As Head of Technology, you will provide the technology direction that connects cloud services, locally deployed

for the process industry.
Which tasks will you perform?
You will:
- Define and maintain a multi-year technology strategy for Industrial IoT and AI, translating it into clear roadmaps
covering cloud, edge, connected devices, industrial communication, data and AI capabilities.
- Establish target architectures, technology principles and decision guidance that enable products, platforms and
deployment models to work together consistently and evolve sustainably.
- Align technology roadmaps, dependencies, investment priorities and lifecycle decisions across products and
development locations, making key trade-offs and capacity constraints transparent to decision-makers.
- Lead the responsible adoption of AI and automation across software development and product improvement, establishing
appropriate governance, human oversight, quality controls and protection of confidential information and intellectual
property.
- Provide direction to technical leaders, architects and engineering teams, while developing technical capabilities
through coaching, communities of practice and effective governance.
- Promote reuse, standardization, automation and continuous improvement to increase delivery speed and engineering
effectiveness without compromising security, quality or compliance.
What do we expect from you?
You:
- Bring substantial experience in technology leadership, software architecture, platform development, engineering
enablement or a comparable role within a complex software environment.
- Have demonstrated experience providing technology direction across multiple teams, products or organizational units
and influencing stakeholders across organizational boundaries.
- Have a strong understanding of distributed systems, cloud-native architecture, edge and hybrid deployment,
industrial connectivity, data architectures, identity, observability, resilience and security-by-design.
- Are experienced in translating technology strategy into executable roadmaps and aligning stakeholders around shared
priorities, dependencies and investment decisions.
- Have a practical understanding of AI-assisted software development, including human oversight, traceability, quality
assurance, security and responsible governance of AI tools.
- Are able to balance technical judgment with customer orientation, commercial awareness and long-term lifecycle
thinking, while managing portfolio-level dependencies, capacity constraints and strategic trade-offs.
- Communicate confidently and facilitate effectively in an international environment.
- Professional English is required; additional languages are an advantage.
