  • Solution/Platform Architecture practice leadership
  • Cross-domain architecture: cloud, infrastructure, network, application, integration and platform services
  • Design authority, architecture governance and standards

  • End-to-end service architecture and integration across technology domains
  • Technology simplification/rationalisation
  • Enterprise Architecture and senior stakeholder engagement
