- Cross-Domain Solutioning: Partner with technical and functional leaders to design resilient, scalable, cross-domain architectures for our most critical strategic initiatives.
- Emerging Technology & Innovation: Research industry trends, run hands-on POCs, lead technology vendor evaluations, and determine how cutting-edge tools and frameworks can create competitive advantages.
- Stewardship & Asset Reuse: Drive the creation, adoption, and reusability of enterprise architectural patterns, frameworks, and digital assets.
- Mentorship & Advocacy: Provide hands-on guidance, coaching, and mentorship to domain architects, engineers, and IT specialists.
- Documentation & Metrics: Document architecture designs, blueprints, and decision records, while establishing and tracking architectural health and performance metrics.
When you will work:
