• Lead discovery and service design efforts to uncover real user and operational needs 
• Drive implementation of cloud-native platforms and modernization of applications 
• Champion automation, standardization, and self-service to improve how teams build and deliver 
• Ensure solutions are secure, reliable, scalable, and built for real-world use

• Build, mentor, and grow high-performing, multidisciplinary teams 

Required

• Experience with solution architecture and service design in enterprise environments 
• Familiarity with human-centered design methods (e.g., discovery, journey mapping, service blueprinting) 
• Experience with distributed systems, APIs, integration patterns, and containerized environments 
• Ability to translate complex needs into practical, scalable solutions 
• Strong communication, leadership, and stakeholder engagement skills 

Preferred

• PMP or Scrum Master certification
