Helping our customers to sell more parts & make things easier with our data and solutions based on our globally leading data standards
TecAlliance interconnects global automotive aftermarket data and knowledge from order to invoice. With over 900 colleagues working in 140 countries, we are owned by 34 automotive companies like Bosch, Continental, Rheinmetall, and ZF. We act as an information hub and process facilitator for them, ensuring standardized processes that help clients save costs (process and indirect costs) and time through efficient processes enabled by our software.
We are looking for a forward‑thinking System Architect (m / f / d) to help shape the next generation of our data backbone, which is our core business capability, and strengthen our architecture capabilities.

In addition you will be embedded in the Information Management business unit — a team of roughly 50 experts who design, develop, and operate the applications and tools powering the TecAlliance data backbone. You will play a key role in defining future‑proof architectures and guiding technical evolution.
As a System Architect (m / f / d) in the business unit Information Management, you will collaborate closely with your peer System Architects from other business units to ensure a unified architectural direction across TecAlliance.
The IT teams in TecAlliance innovate by being cloud‑first, serverless‑first, and incorporating AI‑driven tools for coding, architecting and documentation. The IT architecture function in TecAlliance follows a modern collaborative approach free from ivory tower attitude.
