Platform Manager Integration Reengineering

Company Description

Hej! Ready to help shape the future with smart, innovative solutions?

At IKEA, you can feel at home while making a difference for millions. We’re a place where everyone is welcome, encouraged to explore new tech, try new things and grow from mistakes. As our Platform Manager, you’ll have the chance to stretch your skills, experiment and work in new ways.

We are transforming the Technology and Platform organisation to build a modern and scalable technology foundation for Inter IKEA. To make this shift possible, we need an organisation that is fully aligned with our Operating Model: one that works with a strong product‑ and platform‑thinking mindset and is ready to take full accountability from strategy to operations.

We are looking for passionate people who are energised by change, motivated by learning and driven by the opportunity to make a positive difference.

Job Description

As Platform Manager for Integration Reengineering, you are at the centre of our modernization and adoption of Common Technology Foundation. Enterprise integration is a strategic capability at the heart of our digital transformation, and you will be part of leading the full platform lifecycle of our integration technologies and defining the path forward for our legacy landscape.

While driving modernization is an important part of the role, an equally important responsibility is to ensure stable operations, lifecycle management and continuous improvement of the platform landscape. You are expected to make balanced decisions between transformation, operational stability, technical debt reduction and platform lifecycle management. Success in this role comes from sustainable platforms that are secure, resilient, cost-efficient and trusted by engineering teams across the organisation.

Leading people is a big part of the job. As a leader, you drive performance and remove friction though a Platform-as-a-Product mindset. You grow high‑performing teams and through competence development and succession planning, you create conditions for teams to thrive today and tomorrow.

Qualifications

You move confidently between technical depth and business context, drawing from solid experience in platforms, architecture, service management and digital product development. You are comfortable navigating frameworks such as Agile, DevOps, ITIL and TOGAF, and you understand how to apply them in practice to achieve meaningful outcomes.

You have a strong appreciation for operational excellence and understand what it takes to run business-critical enterprise platforms at scale. You are comfortable navigating both strategic discussions and the practical realities of platform operations, support models, governance, reliability and lifecycle management

You communicate with purpose, collaborate naturally across units, and build trusted relationships with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders. With a growth mindset, you continuously explore and guide teams through change and opportunities.
