  • Identify and describe multiple solution options for new and maturing business capabilities and work with others to understand financial, compliance, and technology impact of solution architecture alternatives.
  • Coordinate with Portfolio, Solution, and Enterprise Architect(s) to understand the appropriate business portfolio direction.
  • Understand and potentially augment technology domain strategies to ensure the solution under consideration supports the direction for technology domains.
  • Identify, assess, document, and communicate any deviations from EA standards.
  • Collaborate with Data and Integration Architect(s) and other solution architects to ensure alignment with data, integration, and infrastructure domains.
  • Generate support, critique, and acceptance of proposed solutions.
  • Review and potentially influence Test Strategy, Test Plan, and Test Cases to ensure adequate test coverage for the solution.
  • Participate in defect resolution process and escalations as required.
  • Provide oversight and guidance to technical leads and test leads to ensure the architecture is adhered to and implemented 'as designed.'
  • Demonstrate accountability for the overall quality of the solution design; not limited to 'as designed,' but also 'as implemented.'
  • Provide oversight for resolving technical issues that arise during any project phase from construction to post-implementation.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or related technical major/discipline.
  • Seven (7) years of combined experience within information technology, operations, engineering, enterprise architecture, application development, and/or technical-related field.

  • Creation of high-quality presentations, proposals, statements of work, and assessment deliverables.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to translate complex technical information and synthesize for senior executive decision-making.
