Oslo, Oslo County, Norway GE Vernova Full time
GE Vernova Lead Software Architecture Facilitator in Oslo, Norway

Job Description Summary

Senior software architect responsible for coordinating across a portfolio of products that are deployed in Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) environments globally.

GE Vernova is the leading software provider for the operations of national and regional electricity grids globally. This includes a wide range of software products, from supporting electricity markets, enabling grid and network planning to real-time electricity grid operations.

This technical role partners closely with lead software architects in the cyber security and data domains to ensure secure, performant, and composable designs and implementations across the portfolio.

Reporting directly to the Chief Technology Officers, this role will facilitate and drive architectural activity across the organization to execute on a scalable and composable microservice architecture.

Job Description

Grid Software (a division of GE Vernova) is driving the vision of GridOS - a portfolio of software running on a common platform to meet the fast-changing needs of the energy sector and supporting the energy transition. Grid software has extensive and well-established software stacks that are progressively being ported to a common microservice architecture and delivering a composable suite of applications. Simultaneously, new applications, providing innovative solutions for enabling our customers to accelerate the energy transition, are being designed and built on the same common platform. This role is a senior software architect, who understands the core designs, principles, and technologies of GridOS and facilitates:

  1. Formalization of the software designs as they evolve (using the established Architecture Decision Record (ADR) process).
  2. Runs and coordinates Architecture Reviews across the organization as part of Architecture Review Boards (ARB).
  3. Works with the Architecture SteerCo (senior software architects from across Grid Software) to enable effective knowledge transfer and establish a backlog and prioritization for upcoming ARBs and ADRs.
  4. Works with the Developer Standard Practices team to ensure standards, best practices, and key reference designs are documented, bringing in SMEs and facilitating collaboration.
  5. Works with documentation teams to ensure the architectures and reference architectures are accurate and well documented.
  6. Works across software teams in the preparation of backlog planning, identifying and managing cross-team dependencies.
  7. Collaborates with the Learning and Development (L&D) team to ensure the right training is in place for software developers.
  8. Collaborates with other software organizations within GE Vernova (including embedded software stacks) to align on common approaches and enabling a unified experience for GE Vernova customers.

This is a critical role within Grid Software requiring both a breadth of knowledge and effective organization and communication skills to drive a common architecture, software standards, and principles across the organization.

Key Knowledge Areas and Expertise

Experience and in-depth knowledge of software microservice architecture. It will be necessary to demonstrate senior expertise in some of the following areas:

  1. Java and Spring Boot software development and software architecture.
  2. Microservice architecture and software development for Kubernetes. A good knowledge of Kubernetes is critical, including software development in an orchestrated microservice architecture. This includes Kubernetes API, custom resources, Kubernetes API aggregation, best practices for Helm, and manifest standardization. In addition, knowledge of supporting sub-systems, such as Identity providers, API Gateways, service mesh, OpenTelemetry, and associated technologies is invaluable.
  3. CI/CD and DevSecOps practice, including use of GitOps. A good understanding of how these technologies work in secure, air-gapped environments (i.e., independent of Cloud services).
  4. Data mesh and data fabric technologies and principles. Understanding how these can enable software composability and a good understanding of the trade-offs of data-centric design.
  5. Mobile software architecture, in particular, software designed for field crew operations, offline support, and near-real-time operation.
  6. It would be advantageous (but not essential) to understand key software technologies specific to the energy industry, such as Common Information Model (CIM), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Geospatial network modeling, etc.
