Advisor Enterprise Architecture - E-Commerce

Key Responsibilities Architecture & Roadmap Leadership Target-State Architecture:
Own and evolve the target-state architecture across commerce, inventory/order management, and finance systems — balancing mainframe systems of record against a growing SaaS and cloud footprint.

Stakeholder Partnership:
Partner with engineering, product, and business stakeholders to translate roadmaps into architecture decisions, reference designs, and build-vs-buy recommendations.

Architectural Oversight:
Provide architectural oversight and design review for major initiatives, from early scoping through implementation.

Integration & Platform Governance Integration Standards:
Set and govern integration standards (API, event-driven, iPaaS, batch/EDI) so new systems connect through consistent, supportable patterns rather than one-off point-to-point links.

Vendor & Technology Evaluation:
Evaluate new vendors, platforms, and technologies (commerce, integration, data) against the existing estate and long-term strategy.

Documentation & Risk Management Architecture Documentation:
Maintain and communicate current- and future-state architecture diagrams, data flow maps, and technology inventories for the commerce estate.

Risk & Technical Debt:
Identify architectural risk — single points of failure, unsupported integrations, technical debt — and drive remediation plans with clear priority and business justification.

Qualifications & Tech Stack Education & Experience

Education:

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Experience:

10+ years in enterprise or solutions architecture roles, including at least 3 years focused on retail, commerce, or supply chain systems.

Legacy-to-Modern Integration:
Demonstrated experience architecting integrations between legacy/mainframe systems of record and modern SaaS or cloud-native applications.

B2B & B2C Commerce:
Experience architecting for both B2B and B2C e-commerce environments, including order, inventory, and pricing data flows.

Technical Skills Integration Stack:
Working knowledge of integration patterns and tooling: API management, iPaaS, ETL/data pipelines, and message and event brokers.

Communication:
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of documenting architecture for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Preferred Skills Integration Platforms:

Experience with Mulesoft, Azure API Management, Azure Data Factory, or comparable iPaaS/ETL tooling.

Enterprise Applications & Data Platforms:
Familiarity with Salesforce (CRM or Data Cloud), Snowflake, or similar CRM and data platform ecosystems, as well as enterprise applications such as Salesforce and Oracle Fusion.

Mainframe Modernization:
Exposure to mainframe modernization or coexistence strategies — API-enabling legacy systems without a full rip-and-replace.

Multi-Platform Commerce:
Experience supporting multiple concurrent commerce platforms (e.g., a phased migration or multi-brand storefront environment).EDI & VAN Integration:
Familiarity with EDI (customer and vendor) and value-added network (VAN) integration models.

Architecture Frameworks: TOGAF, Zachman, or similar enterprise architecture framework experience or certification.

Development Background: .NET or Java development experience, sufficient to review or prototype integration and API code.

Industry

Experience:

Retail or specialty retail industry experience strongly preferred.
