• Coordinate with other teams (middleware, DevOps, support, business) to ensure smooth delivery of solutions.
• Guarantee quality and reliability of systems by putting in place best practices, processes, and governance.
• Drive innovation: evaluate new solutions and continuously improve our systems to keep pace with the fast-moving renewable energy sector.

You will act as a bridge between business needs and technical implementation, ensuring that architecture choices and team activities are always aligned with ENGIE's strategic objectives in the energy transition.
