The opportunity
Celonis is the trusted platform to industrialize Enterprise AI. At our core is the Celonis Context Model — which combines process data, business knowledge, and intelligence into a living digital twin of the enterprise that AI can actually understand, turning AI's operational blind spots into operational clarity.
What you'll do
Lead, coach, and grow a distributed team of platform engineers; hire, develop: careers, and build a genuine ownership culture with clear responsibilities per platform and no single points of knowledge
Define and own the roadmap for our SaaS platforms, AI enablement, and: supporting infrastructure; align it with the IT strategy and business priorities and communicate trade-offs clearly to leadership
Act as the accountable service owner for our core SaaS platforms: Google Workspace, Slack, and further business-critical applications — covering availability, change and release management, admin standards, and documentation
Take full ownership of our Atlassian Cloud platform (Jira, Jira Service: Management, Confluence): administration, governance, performance, and configuration standards that scale as usage across the company grows
Use AI actively to change how the team works: automating operational routine, ticket and incident triage, provisioning, reporting, and documentation instead of scaling headcount
Drive platform governance: tenant configuration, admin roles, data retention, external sharing, and the approval of third-party apps and integrations
What they're looking for
- Simplify and right-size our application landscape; consolidate overlapping: tooling and retire what is no longer needed
- Own data protection for our SaaS platforms, including the rollout and: operation of enterprise backup and recovery
- Keep our lean cloud infrastructure and core services such as DNS and certificates reliable and secure
- Own the integration layer between platforms: APIs, event-driven workflows, and automated provisioning, together with the IT Identity & Endpoint team
