Translate product requirements into technical designs, working with product owners to understand business processes and identify challenges.
Design agentic AI and automation solutions where appropriate, including agent orchestration patterns, LLM integration, human-in-the-loop workflows, and tool/API exposure for agent consumption.
Contribute to design standards, guardrails, and reference patterns used by engineering teams.
Evaluate third-party products, platforms, and cloud services; develop build-vs-buy recommendations for architecture leadership.
Review solution designs with engineering teams to surface risks and architectural gaps.
Partner with Security, Compliance, and Risk to embed information security, Business Continuity, and Disaster Recovery requirements into designs.
Collaborate with Data Platform teams on data processing patterns, integration strategies, and access boundaries.
Produce architectural decision records (ADRs), integration specifications, and design documentation.
