- Drive solution workstreams and decompositions that enable needed future-state capabilities while aligning with enterprise architecture standards, platform strategies, and technology roadmaps
- Create and maintain architectural diagrams, conceptual and logical designs, proofs of concept, and design options, including risk, feasibility, and trade-off assessments
- Guide teams on standard approaches to system design and integration, helping them apply architectural principles consistently across cloud-native and commercial off-the-shelf solutions
- Lead and support the adoption of AI in both software development practices and business processes, identifying practical, value-adding use cases in the product lifecycle and customer data domains
- Collaborate with fellow architects to develop a comprehensive view of the architecture landscape and provide holistic approaches to solving complex business problems
- Stay current on industry trends and emerging technologies, assessing where they can be applied to enable new or evolving business capabilities
- Champion innovation, integrity, collaboration, and inclusion in how solutions are designed, delivered, and supported, ensuring they are secure, scalable, and customer-centric
