  • Develops and maintains the Business Capability Model, enterprise application portfolio inventory, and technology investment rationalization frameworks that inform strategic planning and capital prioritization decisions.
  • Governs enterprise technical debt identification, prioritization, and remediation roadmaps, partnering with delivery and operations leaders to ensure systematic reduction of architectural risk across the technology portfolio.
  • Mentors and upskills Principal, Domain, and Solution Architects across the organization, advancing architectural thinking, standards adoption, and governance participation at all levels of the architecture practice.
  • Partners with the DTS leadership, and clinical, operational, and research leadership to advise on strategic architecture decisions, technology investment trade-offs, and long-range platform direction.
  • Produces executive architecture briefings, strategy documents, and board-level presentations that communicate enterprise architecture direction, portfolio health, and strategic technology recommendations in terms accessible to non-technical leadership.
  • Flexes to lead or support any strategic initiative, program, or architecture assessment assigned to the EA backlog by the Vice President, Enterprise Architecture, Research & Strategy, providing domain-agnostic architectural leadership as organizational priorities evolve.
  • Monitor current and emerging technology trends across the healthcare, research and enterprise technology landscape. Evaluates strategic and architectural implications and communicates findings to executive leadership to inform long term technology investment decision.
