Software architects: all in one – planning, developing and advising

Software architects develop programmes and system-specific applications according to the wishes and requirements of their customers and employers. In this context, it is essential to ensure mutual compatibility of the individual software systems or, respectively, compatibility within the existing system.

Which opportunities do software architects have on the labour market?

Software architects are responsible for the planning, the system design and the coordination of the different departments and employees involved in the programming activities. Almost every company relies on smoothly running software that can be adapted to individual requirements and be ideally integrated into the existing IT landscape. Thus, software architects are more and more in demand. They can work, for instance, in the automotive or IT industry, the logistics sector, the online trade area or in system houses.

What are the tasks and responsibilities of software architects?

Software architects have a broad range of tasks not only limited to IT-related activities. They coordinate the expectations and requirements of internal/external customers by acting as an interface between these customers, the marketing and development and other specialist departments.

  • Definition of approaches
  • Budget planning
  • Analysis of the IT environment
  • Adaptation of the software to the existing infrastructure
  • Coordination of all involved parties
  • Testing during pilot phases

Which hard skills and soft skills should software architects have?

Software architects should generally have an academic degree or a vocational qualification in a related field. In addition to technical expertise, social and communication skills are required as well.

  • Profound knowledge of IT technologies
  • An academic degree in computer sciences/a vocational qualification
  • Knowledge of programming languages such as Java or PHP
  • A clear and transparent way of communication
  • Team spirit
  • Networking talent
  • Flexibility – even in case of quickly changing requirements
