- Demonstrated ability to analyze business needs, translate them into architecture recommendations, and contribute to strategies, roadmaps, capability assessments, strategic planning, or technology rationalization activities.
- Working knowledge of emerging technologies, including cloud, data, and AI, and an understanding of how they influence architecture decisions, standards, risk, and governance
- Experience applying architecture principles, standards, guidelines,



and governance processes, with the ability to contribute to their development and continuous improvement.
- Strong interpersonal skills, with demonstrated ability to build effective working relationships, collaborate with diverse stakeholders, and provide constructive input on architecture deliverables.
- Strong verbal communication skills, with demonstrated ability to explain architecture concepts and present recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences.
