• Oversee solution design, code structure, integration patterns, and component ownership across the full stack from services to UI to communications.
• Ensure consistency, scalability, and security across all delivered solutions, aligning with enterprise standards and architectural direction.
• Collaborate closely with internal product owners, delivery managers, QA teams, and security / compliance partners to ensure seamless and secure execution.
• Lead code and design reviews, define technical checkpoints, and proactively mitigate delivery and architectural risks.
• Act as a technical bridge between vendor teams and internal leadership, providing transparency, confidence, and technical oversight throughout program execution.
• Identify opportunities to improve performance, automate testing, reduce technical debt, and optimize developer efficiency.
