  • Manage architecture exceptions for the application, including identifying, documenting, taking through exception approval process, and remediation where and when possible
  • Monitor application services to ensure performance consistently meets non-functional requirements (response time, security, etc.)
  • Work with the Application Manager & Delivery Lead(s) in defining, analyzing, planning, measuring and improving product availability and continuity
  • Leads the DevOps team and developers in targeted use of DevOps for their application platform assets.

The Technical Architect reports to the Release Train Engineer - Middle Markets.

  • Deep understanding of enterprise integration patterns (API, middlewear and / or data migration)
  • Ability to work closely with cross-functional teams, including developers, product owners, and operations to ensure alignment on technical goals and priorities
