You will have excellent interpersonal skills, and be able to clearly articulate the architecture to a number of stakeholders, including board members, business partners, system administrators and software developers.

You will be working on multiple projects and initiatives at the same time. You will assist with project scoping and sizing, and help to define solutions using repeatable and reusable patterns.
