About this role
Mid-Level Computing Architect responsible for documenting and driving transitional architectures for engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain systems. The role focuses on migration planning, interim interfaces, canonical data models, and practical transition strategies that minimize business disruption.
Key Responsibilities
- Document transitional (interim) architecture patterns and reference designs for phased migration
- Produce migration roadmaps and sequencing (wave planning) with canonical data models and adapters
- Develop integration and data migration strategies (Extract-Transform-Load (ETL), streaming, API gateways, event meshes)
- Establish architecture standards and guardrails (security, observability, error handling, retry/backpressure, SLA expectations)
- Track risks and technical debt and communicate transition plans to senior leadership
Technical Overview
You will produce interim architecture patterns and reference designs to enable phased migration and ongoing operations. The scope includes migration roadmaps and wave planning, integration/data migration strategies using Extract-Transform-Load (ETL), streaming, application programming interface (API) gateways, and event meshes, plus governance of observability, error handling, retry/backpressure, and service level agreement (SLA) expectations.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is a mid-level computing architect with 3+ years of architecture support across business, application, integration, security, and infrastructure domains. They have deep experience in program or portfolio management for enterprise-scale data migrations/modernizations and working knowledge of cloud, containerization, and automation. They can document interim transitional architectures, build migration roadmaps and wave plans, and translate architectures into actionable work items for delivery.
