Solutions Architect

• Partner with Product Teams and business stakeholders to analyze strategic initiatives and define solution architecture options.
• Produce conceptual, logical, and solution architecture designs aligned with enterprise standards and target architectures.
• Support technical design assessments and architecture governance throughout the delivery lifecycle.
• Identify application, integration, security, data, and infrastructure impacts for new initiatives.
• 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.
