Do you want to contribute to improving Uppsala Municipality's efficiency and analytical capabilities through digitalization and data management? Are you passionate about mapping, defining, and developing data sets? Do you, like us, believe that data is a strategic resource that can and should be used to develop operations? Then this job is for you!

Organizational Structure

The team is located in the corporate analysis unit, quality and planning department (Municipal Executive Office). The analysis unit works with recurring corporate-wide materials, such as population forecasts and environmental analyses, as well as specific assignments from different parts of the organization. The department as a whole coordinates and supports the municipal group's operations in planning, follow-up, analysis, operational development, and innovation.

Job Description

As an information architect in Uppsala Municipality's data governance team, you will participate in the requirements-setting work of the administrations and municipal companies regarding information architecture, in collaboration with several other professional roles. The work is both close to operations, for example, by helping departments formulate requirements, and cross-functional, by identifying needs and solutions for all or parts of the group.

The position will include:

• Concept and information modeling
• Leading workshops and otherwise supporting change-oriented work
• Identifying, inventorying, structuring, quality-assuring, and describing data sets/flows
• Documenting and standardizing master data and data quality processes.

You will be part of a newly established data governance team, consisting of two other information architects and led by a team leader. The team's mission includes providing an overarching vision for Uppsala Municipality's information architecture and data governance, as well as supporting operations in their data management at both strategic and more operational levels.

The team's work also includes concrete, hands-on work with and review of operational data, including concept testing for the development of appropriate data flows.

As an information architect, you will work closely with those who create, modify, and use operational data – both in ongoing operations and for follow-up, analysis, and operational development purposes.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with an academic education in a relevant field, such as systems/computer science, informatics, or equivalent professional experience in information architecture or informatics that the employer deems relevant for the position. To succeed in this role, you need to have experience in information architecture in accordance with established architecture methods, tools, models, and processes. The work also requires experience in working with operational and/or IT development, leading workshops for information modeling, and engaging with operations based on an understanding of their processes, from caseworker to management level, as well as from investigation and analysis perspectives. Experience in contributing to concrete, operational collaboration for operational development is also a requirement for the position. We also expect you to have good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written.

If you have experience in architectural work within an authority and in large organizations with many systems and varying data sets, this is considered an advantage. It is also beneficial if you have experience in change management or development work within the municipal sector.

As a person, you have high integrity. You take responsibility for your tasks and structure your approach while driving your processes forward. We also see that you work well with others, relate to them in a responsive and smooth manner, and listen, communicate, and resolve conflicts constructively. Furthermore, you have a good understanding of how people absorb knowledge and the different conditions of individuals. You adapt the way you convey your message to the recipient. The job suits you if you plan, organize, and prioritize work effectively and set and adhere to timelines. Additionally, you work well with complex issues. You analyze and break down problems into their components and solve complicated problems.
