- Create and maintain architecture documentation, technical decision records, diagrams, standards, and implementation guidance.
- Evaluate and recommend frameworks, libraries, platform capabilities, and architecture patterns based on scale, performance, security, accessibility, maintainability, and business fit.
- Lead architecture reviews and engineering governance, ensuring teams follow agreed patterns and resolve deviations deliberately.
- Partner directly with senior client stakeholders to clarify requirements, explain trade-offs, manage technical risk, and align roadmaps and investment decisions.
- Provide delivery leadership across estimates, scope, staffing, dependencies, release planning, quality, and escalation management.
- Guide implementation through design reviews, code reviews, prototypes, and hands-on technical intervention when required.
- Mentor technical leads and senior engineers, build architecture capability, and strengthen engineering practices across teams.
- Support pursuits by shaping solutions, estimating delivery, defining team models, and presenting technical approaches to clients.

- Experience defining architectures for single-page applications, server-side rendering, micro-frontends, design systems, API orchestration, and enterprise content platforms.
- Strong understanding of RESTful and GraphQL APIs, cloud integration, identity and access management, web security, observability, performance, and resilience.
