Your average day is going to include leveraging your understanding of high-level end-to-end business workflows, mapping them to technology solution, and from there you translate business opportunities to technology solutions, building an overview of the business case as well as a roadmap to make improvements.

Responsibilities:
  • Work with senior members across the organization to understand large-scale opportunities, develop our enterprise architecture
