SAP Architecture Advisor Insurance Customer Advisory Switzerland

Lead key customer engagements in the Swiss insurance market as a trusted architecture advisor — from initial discovery through roadmap design and adoption. Shape and communicate the SAP Autonomous Enterprise vision by defining the future-state business capabilities, target architecture, AI adoption path, and phased transformation roadmap required to move from current-state complexity to an intelligent, adaptive, and scalable enterprise architecture. Design and position the SAP Business AI platform and agentic AI use cases — from underwriting automation and claims processing to fraud detection and customer self-service — translating AI capabilities into quantified business value and concrete deployment roadmaps. Map SAP solution capabilities to insurance-specific business requirements across core lines — property & casualty, life, health, and reinsurance — and demonstrate the end-to-end value proposition of RISE and GROW with SAP. Apply Responsible AI design practices: embed governance guardrails, auditability, and safety controls into every AI architecture recommendation. Swiss and EU regulatory requirements (ICS, FINMA guidance, EU AI Act applicability) are not afterthoughts — build them in from the start. Build and maintain a strong network within the SAP insurance community and the Swiss partner ecosystem; define and manage joint go-to-market activities. Contribute to demand generation as Industry Lead — challenge customers with new ideas, inspire innovation, and identify cross-sell opportunities grounded in architectural insight.
