- Develop architecture diagrams, solution blueprints, interface specifications, and technical documentation.
- Promote reuse of enterprise platforms, APIs, shared services, and architectural patterns.
- Collaborate with Enterprise Architecture, Security, Data, Cloud, AI and Infrastructure teams to ensure end-to-end solution alignment.
- Evaluate technology alternatives and prepare architecture recommendations, including Buy vs. Build analyses where applicable.
- Support Architecture Review Boards (ARB) and provide technical guidance during project planning and execution.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of architecture methods, standards, and implementation guidance.
- Develop proof-of-concepts (PoCs), prototypes, and reference implementations to validate architecture decisions, evaluate emerging technologies, and reduce implementation risk prior to production adoption.
- Design and develop reusable software components, sample applications, APIs, automation scripts, and architecture accelerators that demonstrate enterprise architecture patterns and best practices.
- Contribute hands-on to the implementation of strategic initiatives when required, collaborating with Product Teams to validate architecture decisions, troubleshoot complex technical issues, and accelerate delivery.
- Develop integration prototypes using modern programming languages and cloud-native technologies to validate interoperability between enterprise platforms, AI services, APIs, and shared capabilities.
- Support the development of architecture automation capabilities, including reusable templates, infrastructure automation, standards-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and developer tooling that improve architecture governance and delivery efficiency.
- Review application code, infrastructure definitions, and technical implementations to ensure alignment with Enterprise Architecture principles, security standards, and solution architecture decisions.
