As our Enterprise Architect, you own the technology vision and you have the mandate to make it real.

You will define and drive standards, guidelines, and the architecture strategy across our products: how systems are designed, how services communicate, how infrastructure supports scale, and how every major technology decision maps back to business outcomes. This isn't an advisory role — you set the direction, align the stakeholders, and take responsibility for the results.

You'll work directly with IT professionals (Engineering Managers, Software Architects), and business leaders (Product Managers) across dedicated product teams — with the authority and organizational backing to make decisions that stick. You'll have a seat at the table with IT Top Management, to whom you report directly, ensuring architectural vision and business strategy move in lockstep.

If you see a risk, you own the mitigation. If you see an opportunity, you drive it forward. We'll give you the tools, and the trust — the outcome is yours.

Key responsibilities:

Own the architecture

take full ownership of the overall applications architecture — driving design, discovery, and assessment of solution architectures across the organization
translate architectural vision into tangible business impact, actively shaping both product and technology roadmaps
evaluate technology choices and architectural trade-offs with a clear eye on cost, scalability, maintainability, and long-term capacity

Drive decisions, manage risk

navigate architects and technology experts toward solid architectural decisions, standards, frameworks, and tooling — you set the direction, they help get there
identify risks and architectural challenges early, and own the mitigation strategies that keep delivery on track
closely collaborate with Infrastructure, DevOps, and IT Security teams to ensure every architectural decision is grounded in operational, security, and quality realities

Shape the technical direction

facilitate alignment across technical and non-technical stakeholders to define and prioritize architectural drivers for solutions being built
drive or actively support implementation estimation and roadmap construction — bridging the gap between architectural vision and delivery planning

Raise the bar across teams

provide mentorship, technical expertise, and hands-on guidance to architects and development teams — your knowledge is a force multiplier, not a bottleneck
own architecture guidelines and documentation standards, and take responsibility for keeping them current and consistent across multiple product teams — without slowing their autonomy
