- Build and lead a community of practitioners across the organization to drive the adoption of modern application patterns, integration standards, and Agentic AI. Partner with Line of Business teams to identify opportunities for modernization and transformation.
- Establish and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the success of architecture initiatives. Continuously optimize processes, tools, and technologies used to deliver our products.
- Provide product leadership and mentorship to our team of engineers and partners, fostering a culture of innovation and excellence.
- Author white papers and points of view. Communicate technical concepts and project updates effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Oversee architecture governance practices, including the automation of governance activities using AI, GitOps, Policy as Code, and LeanIX. Ensure technical reference models and patterns are up to date.
- Get hands-on with agentic development. Demonstrate vibe coding using AI tools from a Product Manager angle and help prototype concepts rapidly.
What do you need to succeed?
Must have:
- 6+ years of Product Management & Agile experience: Proven track record in driving product discussions, market scans, user experience research, software development, and delivery.

- Experience with Jira, Agile methodologies, GitHub, and CI/CD practices.
- Familiarity with cloud-native architectures, microservices, and containerization/orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
