  • Contribute to architectural standards, governance, and development guidelines to ensure compliance, quality, and consistency across teams.
  • Drive project scope, timelines, and delivery plans aligned to solution complexity and business priorities.
  • Work effectively within Agile methodologies, supporting iterative delivery and continuous improvement.
