Chur-based IT company Inventx has appointed Torsten Böttjer as Head of Cloud Services.

In this role, he is responsible for the further development of Inventx’s hybrid cloud strategy for the Swiss financial and insurance market.

The newly created position combines public and private cloud services under a single strategic leadership and aligns them with the current requirements of the financial and insurance sector.

Torsten Böttjer reports directly to the CTO, Fabio Cortesi.

Torsten Böttjer brings extensive leadership experience in the development and operation of cloud platforms.

At Swisscom, Cisco and Oracle, he led key cloud initiatives, including the introduction of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure in Europe.

Most recently, he headed cloud and infrastructure operations at Avaloq and advanced the automation of compliance processes in hybrid operating models for core banking services.

The consolidation of responsibility for private and public cloud offerings allows for full flexibility: sensitive data and core systems operate securely in the ix.cloud, while the public cloud provides capacity for innovation-driven applications.

Inventx operates its infrastructure independently across four highly available data centres in eastern Switzerland.

The offering is complemented by managed public cloud services for organisations seeking to implement hybrid scenarios with a trusted Swiss partner.

“In a time of increasing geopolitical complexity, the combination of ix.cloud in our own Swiss data centres and leading public cloud platforms provides a significant advantage: our clients retain full control over their data while benefiting from maximum innovation potential. This hybrid architecture represents a tangible benefit for all Swiss banks and insurers. I look forward to further developing this advantage,”

said Torsten Böttjer.
