Responsibilities:
Solution Architecture and Technical Leadership
• Lead architecture and technical strategy for Azure modernization and transformation programs that
span multiple teams and workstreams.
• Translate client goals into scalable designs that align with business priorities, non-functional
requirements, delivery constraints, and program-level outcomes.
• Drive architecture across teams so designs follow shared models, standards, and patterns.
• Collaborate with architects and engineers in other domains to integrate solutions and maintain a
cohesive end-to-end architecture.
• Provide ongoing architectural guidance during implementation, including reviews of key designs and
code, and define patterns and guardrails that teams can reuse.
• Apply solid engineering practices in your primary domain—modular design, clear interfaces,
testability, and observability—so solutions remain robust and maintainable.
• Use AI-assisted tooling to accelerate design, code, tests, documentation, and analysis, and help
teams adopt effective practices at program scale.
Delivery and Consulting Excellence
• Lead or co-lead discovery and roadmap work for programs or large workstreams, turning inputs into
integrated, testable backlogs with clear non-functional requirements and dependencies.
• Use structured problem solving to clarify scope, dependencies, and risks at program scale, and
explain options in terms of value, cost, risk, and time-to-impact.
• Communicate architecture strategy and decisions clearly to technical and non-technical audiences,
including executives.
• Build trusted relationships with product, engineering, and technology leaders, and help shape
modernization roadmaps in the client’s best interest.
• Provide architecture oversight so designs, interfaces, and integration points support predictable
delivery and stable team velocity.
• Align multiple teams on shared outcomes, contracts, and integration points, ensuring dependencies
are identified, owned, and tracked through to delivery.
• Help define delivery approaches, working agreements, and documentation practices that keep
3Cloud and client teams aligned across locations and time zones.
• Support effective use of Agile at scale by ensuring architecture and backlog structure enable
incremental delivery, clear definitions of done, and data-informed adjustments based on telemetry
and feedback.
• Apply a consulting mindset by anticipating client needs, proposing options, and tying solutions to
clear results and adoption, and handle challenge and pushback by explaining trade-offs in simple,
direct language.
Mentorship and Team Development:
• Mentor architects, senior engineers, and technical leads, building their design skills, architectural
judgment, and ability to work effectively across systems and teams.
• Provide architectural oversight across teams or workstreams, modeling pragmatic decision-making
and showing when to keep solutions simple and when new patterns or technologies are justified.
• Support hiring and growth by participating in technical interviews, calibration discussions, and
mentorship, and by helping shape development plans for future architects.
Growth and Innovation:
• Contribute to business development by identifying opportunities beyond the current assignment
across all our capabilities and assisting the sales director in pursuing them.
• Intentionally builds relationship networks within client accounts to deepen partnership and identify
opportunities to provide additional business value.
• Partner with sales and account leaders on strategic pursuits by setting the technical vision,
contributing to solution strategy, and participating in client workshops, demos, and roadmap sessions.
• Create solution options, high-level designs, and estimates for programs, clearly documenting
assumptions, dependencies, and risks and tying them back to business value and risk reduction.
• Build and evolve reusable assets—such as reference architectures, runbooks, workshops, starter
repositories, and templates—that become standard paths for delivery teams.
• Champion adoption of modern frameworks, patterns, platform capabilities, automation, and AIassisted tools that improve quality, speed, or reliability in a safe and secure way.
• Actively participate in enablement initiatives, share lessons from complex engagements, and help
build a culture of collaboration, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing.
