As a Senior Enterprise Architect at Matrix42 Professional Services, you are responsible for the end-to-end architecture and solution design of Matrix42 Enterprise Service Management (ESM) initiatives. You translate customer goals into robust target architectures, lead architectural decision-making, and ensure technical excellence across delivery. You act as a technical leader and coach, enabling consultants and solution architects to deliver consistent, scalable, and supportable solutions.

As part of the Professional Services Organization (PSO), you operate at the intersection of business advisory, process design, and technical architecture. You lead architectural workshops, drive the solution conception from discovery to implementation blueprint, and provide guidance on complex configurations, integrations, and customizations beyond standard capabilities when required.

You define and approve work packages, provide effort and feasibility assessments, and de-risk delivery through proactive governance and troubleshooting for complex challenges. You communicate architecture clearly to multiple audiences (C-level to admins), including decision-ready slide decks and documentation. Additionally, you actively contribute to team enablement through coaching, knowledge transfer, and training (e.g., Matrix42 Academy formats or customer-specific enablement).
