Own the target architecture for Falkor’s shared data, knowledge and platform services. You will help ensure that products, integrations and AI-enabled experiences are built on secure, scalable, resilient and governed foundations.
Falkor is a KONGSBERG company helping organisations in heavy-asset industries improve how assets are designed, operated and optimised across their lifecycle. Our industrial intelligence platform connects people, systems, data and workflows, turning complexity into clarity and data into decisions.
As Data & Platform Architect, you will define and evolve the architecture for shared platform capabilities spanning data ingestion, processing, storage, eventing, APIs, metadata, search, knowledge graphs and workflow orchestration. You will set clear architectural direction, establish reusable patterns and work with product and engineering teams to translate business needs into sustainable platform decisions.
This is a senior individual-contributor role with broad influence across product and engineering. It is suited to an architect who can combine strategic direction with practical technical guidance.
Define and maintain the target architecture and transition roadmap for shared data, knowledge and platform services.
Establish reusable patterns for data ingestion, processing, storage, event streaming, APIs, integration and workflow orchestration.
Guide architectural decisions across relational, document, time-series, graph, vector and unstructured data systems.
Drive cloud-native, event-driven and API-first practices, while balancing scalability, resilience, security and cost.
Define and govern enterprise ontologies, semantic models and knowledge graph architectures that connect industrial assets, systems, documents, workflows and operational data.
Establish standards for taxonomy, metadata, lineage, semantic interoperability and the lifecycle of knowledge assets.
Shape architectures for enterprise search, semantic discovery, contextual retrieval and AI-ready knowledge services.
Enable a unified intelligence layer that connects trusted data, knowledge, search and workflows to support discovery, traceability, decision support and AI-powered experiences.
Establish architecture principles, standards and lifecycle controls for platform services, data pipelines and knowledge assets.
Ensure cross-cutting requirements for security, access control, observability, reliability, performance and cost optimisation are designed into the platform.
Promote interoperability across platform modules, applications, AI services and external integrations.
Create pragmatic decision records and reference architectures that make standards easy for teams to adopt.
Partner with Product Managers, Application Architects, Infrastructure Architects and Engineering teams to align platform investments with business priorities.
Provide hands-on technical guidance for data platforms, messaging, search, graph technologies, workflow engines, APIs and high-performance data access.
Mentor engineers and architects in data engineering, knowledge engineering and platform architecture practices.
Support cross-product initiatives that depend on shared data infrastructure, semantic models and enterprise knowledge capabilities.
An agreed target architecture and transition roadmap for Falkor’s shared data and platform foundations.
Clear, adopted standards for data, metadata, ontology, search, knowledge graphs, workflow and integration services.
Reduced architectural fragmentation and stronger interoperability across products and platform capabilities.
Governed, scalable foundations that enable trustworthy AI-assisted and decision-support experiences.
Improved technical alignment between product, engineering, architecture and infrastructure stakeholders.
Significant experience in software engineering, data platforms or distributed systems, including senior architecture or platform leadership responsibilities.
Proven ability to design and evolve enterprise-grade, multi-tenant or SaaS platform architectures.
Strong knowledge of distributed, event-driven and API-based systems, including data pipelines, messaging, storage and integration patterns.
Experience with enterprise data architecture and at least one of the following areas: knowledge graphs and ontologies, enterprise search, semantic platforms or workflow orchestration.
Strong understanding of governance, security, lifecycle management, observability, scalability, reliability and access control.
Ability to communicate complex architectural choices clearly and influence decisions across product and engineering teams.
Enterprise ontology, taxonomy, semantic modelling, metadata management or knowledge graph implementation.
Keyword, semantic, hybrid or vector-based enterprise search and retrieval architectures.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation, vector databases, AI agents or knowledge-retrieval architectures.
Workflow and orchestration platforms, event-streaming technologies and graph databases.
Digital twins, industrial information models, operational technology data or Industrial AI platforms.
Modern web and service architectures, including TypeScript or Node.js environments.
You do not need expertise in every technology. Relevant experience may include relational and document databases, time-series systems, event streaming and messaging, graph databases, enterprise search, vector stores, workflow engines, REST or GraphQL APIs, and cloud-native platform services. We value sound architectural judgement and the ability to select appropriate technologies for the problem.
Work on meaningful challenges with real-world impact in complex industries.
Help shape a platform that connects industrial data, context and workflows at enterprise scale.
Collaborate with specialists across product, engineering, operations and industrial domains.
Influence architectural direction while remaining close to practical engineering decisions.
Grow with a global technology business backed by KONGSBERG’s industrial heritage.
We believe diverse perspectives make us stronger and are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels respected, included and able to do their best work.

Type the gross monthly salary you were offered. We apply the 2026 tax rules and subtract an average rent from SSB.
Method: national insurance 7.6%, standard deduction 46% (max NOK 95,700), personal allowance NOK 114,540, ordinary income tax 22% (assumed unchanged; verify), bracket tax 1.7/4.0/13.7/16.8/17.8%. Ignores pension, union fees, deductions, municipal differences and holiday-pay timing. Rent = SSB 2025 survey average, not a current asking price. Food, energy, transport and insurance must still come out of what is left. Not advice.
