- Decompose epics into technically coherent slices with product owners and lead engineers
- Arbitrate cross-team technical decisions spanning development, data, and security
- Ensure designs meet performance, scalability, Section 508 accessibility, and regulatory requirements
- Maintain architecture documentation, decision records, and interface contracts
- Mentor lead engineers and review high-impact designs
PHYSICAL DEMANDS:
- Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions
