What is the Opportunity?

The Principal Architect leads the Solution Architecture practice and is accountable for the performance, maturity, and consistency of the team. All Solution Architects report to this role. The Principal Architect establishes the practice operating model, assigns and guides architecture engagements, develops team capability, and provides hands-on leadership for complex or enterprise-impacting solutions.

The role partners and coordinates with Enterprise, Data, Integration, Technology, Security, AI, and application architecture teams to produce cohesive end-to-end solutions. You'll also works closely with the Business Process Management Office (BPMO), business units, Information Services, and functional teams to connect business needs, process design, application capabilities, and delivery requirements.

What You'll Do Here:

Lead the Solution Architecture Practice

Lead, manage, coach, and develop the Solution Architecture team, including work assignment, priorities, quality expectations, and performance objectives.
Define and continuously improve the Solution Architecture operating model, engagement approach, methods, templates, standards, and governance touchpoints.
Ensure Solution Architects are engaged early and remain involved through discovery, design, delivery, and transition to operations.
Build reusable solution patterns, reference architectures, decision records, and knowledge-sharing practices that improve consistency and reduce rework.
Monitor practice demand, capacity, capability gaps, and delivery risks, and recommend actions to maintain effective architecture coverage.

Partner with BPMO, Business Units, and Information Services

Partner with BPMO, business leaders, Information Services, functional teams, project and program managers, business analysts, and product or process owners to shape initiatives and clarify outcomes.
Translate business capabilities, processes, functional requirements, and operational needs into coherent solution options and architecture direction.
Coordinate architecture engagement with delivery planning, functional design, application configuration, implementation, and operational readiness.
Communicate solution options, trade-offs, risks, dependencies, and recommendations in clear business and technical language.

Lead Solution Design and Assurance

Lead architecture for complex, high-risk, cross-platform, or enterprise-impacting initiatives.
Ensure end-to-end designs address business process, applications, integrations, data, platforms, identity, security, non-functional requirements, and supportability.
Guide option assessments using business value, cost, feasibility, risk, scalability, interoperability, and strategic alignment.
Maintain architecture involvement during delivery to resolve design issues, assess material changes, and support implementation and operational transition.

Coordinate with Other Architecture Teams

Partner with Enterprise Architecture to align solutions with enterprise principles, target-state direction, standards, and roadmaps.
Coordinate with Data, Integration, Technology, Security, AI, and application architects or SMEs to incorporate domain requirements and resolve cross-domain dependencies.
Facilitate architecture reviews and escalate enterprise-level risks, exceptions, or conflicts through the appropriate governance forums.
Maintain clear accountability between Solution Architecture and domain architecture teams while promoting collaborative decisions and cohesive outcomes.

What You Bring to the Team:

Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Information Technology, or another related IT program, or equivalent practical experience.
12+ years of progressive experience in solution architecture, enterprise architecture, systems integration, technology strategy, or large-scale IT delivery.
Demonstrated experience leading Solution Architects or a comparable architecture team and maturing an architecture practice, operating model, or governance process.
Experience partnering with business leaders, BPMO or PMO functions, Information Services, functional teams, and technology delivery teams in a complex enterprise environment.
Broad architecture experience across packaged and SaaS applications, cloud and infrastructure, integration, data, cybersecurity, identity, and operational service models.
Experience leading complex solution design, vendor evaluation, option analysis, implementation support, and transition to operations.
Construction, engineering, infrastructure, or project-based industry experience is an asset.
People leadership and coaching skills and cross-functional partnership and influencing abilities.

Reason for vacancy: Replacement

The expected salary range for this role is $130,000-$165,000 per year
