## Description

* Own and articulate bounded contexts across Duck Creek product domains; demonstrate deep ownership of modules (Policy, Billing, Claims, DMS, and Agency/Distribution).
 * Build shared understanding of domain encapsulation, decompose new business concepts into bounded contexts (configurations, rules, integrations).
 * Create and maintain context maps detailing inter-context interactions; design inter-context communication specifications to meet current and future needs.
 * Decide on extending, refactoring, or building new software within Duck Creek across modules; govern decisions with Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).
 * Design and evolve HTTP APIs and messages; establish domain concepts in API resources that mature over time.
 * Produce clear design artifacts (OpenAPI, diagrams, data models) to facilitate implementation and testing.
 * Lead integration patterns with upstream/downstream/core legacy systems via REST/SOAP and Duck Creek Anywhere frameworks; define reusable integration approaches.
 * Define Non-Functional Requirements (performance SLAs, availability, data retention) for Duck Creek-hosted services; validate solutions meet targets.
 * Elevate enterprise communication about technology strategy; translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
 * Champion product-domain capabilities to stakeholders and other teams; influence product decisions with technical insight.
 * Mature architectural thinking: evaluate trade-offs (speed, debt, cost, complexity) and document rationale.
 * Educate teams on Duck Creek design principles; drive platform knowledge growth across IT.
 * Establish standardized integration patterns and maturity metrics; guide when to configure within Duck Creek vs extend with custom code or adjacent tools.
 * Manage multiple initiatives with competing priorities; provide clear, timely guidance.
