Job Description

• Under broad direction, focus on one or more major systems, technology stacks, or products specific either to a Product Service Line or Major Corporate Function.

• Guide solution decisions for the enterprise by analyzing technology and business trends and strategy.
• Define principles and models to guide solution decisions for the enterprise.

• Develop and execute road maps describing the evolution of assigned enterprise solution portfolios from current state to future state.
• Understand and advocate the principles of business and IT strategies, as well as of EA development and service delivery.
