RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE:

  • The ESA ensures that the application portfolio evolves at an appropriate rate and does not become unviable as the other related architectures change.
  • The ESA also provides the reusable standards, guidelines, patterns and frameworks to application development projects, including those related to application architecture.

  • Limit choices available during development by choosing a standard way of pursuing application development, creating, defining, or choosing an application framework for the application.

  • Subdivide a complex application during the design phase into smaller, more manageable pieces.
  • Grasp the functions of each component within the application.
  • Understand the interactions and dependencies among components.
  • Communicate these concepts to developers.
  • Review, develop and maintain the organisation's IT architecture.
  • Review and evaluate the current state of the organisation's architecture ('as-is) in order to identify duplications, what is working, what is not working and measure the health of key business processes that are supported by the current architecture.
  • Build the transition architecture to connect the current to the future state by creating an iterative roadmap to get to the desired state.
  • Recommend and provide changes to the business in easily digestible iterative changes.
  • Work in liaison with business stakeholders to develop Business Architecture Roadmaps containing tactical and strategic initiatives to reach target business capabilities.
  • Identify and resolve dependencies and impacts across the architecture landscape.
  • Design solutions based on business requirements that align with Reference Architecture policies and standards.
  • Provide expertise in designing solutions for custom requirements.
  • Collaborate with internal / external stakeholders and conduct stakeholder reviews of architecture roadmaps and designs.
