This role ensures solutions are fit for purpose, aligned to target state, and governed from concept through delivery and conformance. The role requires strong technical depth across Enterprise IT platforms and architecture patterns, but it is not a primary software engineering role.\nBe a Contributor - What You’ll Do\nLead the design and strategy of project, capability, platform, and solution architecture across front-office, middle-office, and/or back-office functions, supporting initiatives and projects from early planning through design and delivery\nBuild an end-to-end capability-centric technology landscape to connect capability models, value-streams, processes, and domain architectures into a cohesive architecture stack in both current and various target state formulations\nDevelop contextual, conceptual, component, and physical architecture views that place the solution in both business and technical context ensuring appropriate functional and non-functional requirement coverage as well as orienting the implementation scope and approach and account for strategy, risks, issues, and urgent constraints that affect delivery decisions\nDevelop and maintain capability-level roadmaps that sequence platform, solution, and architectural evolution in alignment with business priorities, dependencies, and target-state outcomes\nOwn and evolve the standards and patterns library across architecture domains (AI, integration, data, infrastructure) and non-functional control requirements (security, compliance, regulatory, etc.). Partner with the architecture community to develop these standards and patterns and maintain them over time\nSupport architecture governance through high-level design reviews, design conformance, decision management, risk identification, and exception handling\nIdentify opportunities for reuse, simplification, modularity, automation, and zero-touch experiences within and across capabilities, applications and technologies\nBuild effective partnerships across business, product, engineering, platform, security, data, and delivery teams to drive aligned solution outcomes\nCommunicate architectural direction, tradeoffs, dependencies, and risks clearly across executive, leadership, delivery, and technical stakeholders\nDemonstrate strong executive functioning through roadmap management, issue resolution, design coordination, and disciplined follow-through across initiatives\nMaintain strong technical expertise across architecture patterns, integration approaches, platform considerations, and non-functional design requirements\nBe Prepared - What You Bring\n10 or above years of experience in solutions architecture, sales engineering, consulting, network engineering, cybersecurity, cloud architecture, or a related technical field\nDemonstrated technical depth across the Enterprise IT platform stack, with the ability to evaluate options, define architecture direction, guide delivery teams, and make pragmatic tradeoffs without serving as the primary software developer\nEnterprise platform architecture: Experience shaping architecture across ServiceNow, Salesforce, Oracle (Finance & HR), Microsoft 365, Glean/AI-Clients, and other SaaS business platforms, including platform lifecycle, rationalization, integration, governance, and target-state planning\nIntegration and data architecture: Strong knowledge of application programming interfaces (APIs), iPaaS or enterprise service bus patterns, data movement, data quality, metadata, and governed data products across enterprise applications\nCloud and data platforms: Practical architecture experience across AWS, and Microsoft Azure, plus enterprise data and analytics platforms such as Databricks and Amazon Redshift. Understands cloud foundations, storage, resiliency, scalability, and cost considerations\nIdentity, security, and controls: Working knowledge of single sign-on and multifactor authentication, role/policy/attribute-based access control, entitlement-aware access, data classification, privacy, auditability, security architecture, and compliance requirements\nObservability and operations: Experience defining operational readiness and non-functional requirements for logging, metrics, application performance monitoring, availability, latency, usage, cost, risk, and service health across platforms and integrations\nArchitecture methods and governance: Proficiency in current-state and target-state architecture, capability mapping, reference architectures, reusable patterns, technology roadmaps, vendor and platform evaluation, architecture review boards, design conformance, and exception management\nEnterprise AI architecture: Experience defining or implementing AI capabilities across approved foundation models, model routing or gateways, prompt management, evaluation, safety guardrails, human-in-the-loop controls, and usage or cost management\nGrounded intelligence and agents: Experience with enterprise search, knowledge retrieval, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), permission-aware context, agent workflows, tool routing, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) or comparable governed tool-integration patterns\nAI platform integration: Ability to connect AI experiences to enterprise platforms such as Glean, Microsoft 365 and Teams, Salesforce, Oracle, and ServiceNow while preserving identity, authorization, data boundaries, and auditability\nApplied delivery judgment: Track record moving AI concepts from discovery or proof of concept toward production-ready architecture, with clear decisions, non-functional requirements, measurable outcomes, and adoption roadmaps\nFirst 90 Days: Immerse in our culture, connect with mentors (Blox Buddies), and map the systems and meet with key stakeholders that rely on your work. Discuss and create short/long term goals.\nSix Months:\nOwn and publish current-state capability and architecture views for your core domains, including key systems, integrations, and data flows\nEstablish and socialize a target-state vision and prioritized roadmap for at least one major capability area, including early, low-risk AI and automation use cases\nStand up or refine architecture governance routines (design reviews, decision records, standards updates) for your domain with clear engagement models\nInfluence the design of 2-3 major initiatives to align with target architecture, security/compliance expectations, and non-functional standards\nIntroduce or refine AI-powered tools for architecture documentation, options analysis, and impact assessments, demonstrating tangible productivity gains\nOne Year:\nDrive a measurable shift toward a unified, capability-centric architecture within your domains, with increased reuse, reduced complexity, and stronger traceability from strategy to solutions\nDemonstrate realized business outcomes from your roadmap (e.g., simplified integrations, better data consistency, faster delivery, or cost efficiencies) with clear metrics\nMature the enterprise architecture standards and patterns library, including AI, integration, data, and infrastructure patterns adopted by delivery teams\nEmbed AI and analytics into at least one end-to-end value stream to improve decision quality, automation, or user experience under responsible AI guidelines\nBecome a trusted strategic advisor to senior business and technology leaders on major investments, technology choices, and operating-model changes\nBelong -Your Community\nOur culture thrives on inclusion, rewarding the bold ideas, curiosity, and creativity that move us forward.
