Who are you and what is your main responsibility?

My name is Andreas Lehmann and I work as an IT architect for msg Research, a cross division, and I am assigned to the Cloud Computing Center of Competence within that division. In this position, I assume different roles to support a variety of internal and external projects.

Which msg project are you currently supporting to be exact?

At the moment, I am working on msg’s MultiCloud platform. The platform provides an internal self-service portal through which employees can order a subscription. The subscription is then automatically created by the target hyperscaler and delivered with a secure basic configuration so that development can get quickly underway.

I support a few different product teams that are involved in the project and my work spans a variety of roles, whether architect, scrum master or product owner.

What else do you do?

I provide support for all things cloud architecture and cloud infrastructure.

With over 10,000 employees, msg has many circles, networks and communities that all deal with the cloud. I share know-how through the different channels, organize presentations and different formats for communication and exchange, work on career paths for cloud engineers and cloud architects and also host training courses in cloud-related topics, such as cloud basics, IaC with Terraform or container-based deployments with Docker and Kubernetes.
