About the Opportunity

We are seeking an Enterprise Architect to help lead the architecture change process governed by our Architecture Review Board (ARB). In this role you will evaluate proposed solutions across the full enterprise architecture landscape Business, Data, Application, and Technology (BDAT) — assess them against our architecture principles, standards, and target-state roadmaps, and guide project and solution teams toward designs that are sound, secure, cost-effective, and strategically aligned.

This is a breadth-first role with depth in at least one domain. You will spend less time building systems and more time shaping how systems fit together, why they should exist, and what the enterprise should stop doing. You will need to be equally credible talking about a value stream with a business VP and a network topology with an infrastructure engineer.

Our environment includes on-premises data centers, mainframe workloads deployed to cloud, and a substantial Microsoft Azure footprint, so practical hybrid-enterprise experience matters.

- Author and maintain Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), conditional approvals, and time-bound exceptions or waivers, including the remediation path attached to each exception.
- Track accepted architecture risk and technical debt created through waivers, and report on it to governance and leadership forums.
