Exp need – 10+ years

Must Have Technical/Functional Skills

• Define the target state architecture spanning application, data, integration, security, and operations—including domain boundaries, service decomposition, and cloud reference patterns.
• Create and maintain the modernization roadmap: iterative cutovers, strangler fig patterns, co existence strategies, and rollback plans.
• Establish non functional requirements (NFRs) and SLAs/SLOs for availability, performance, security, compliance, resilience, and cost.
• Data Strategy (Rationalization, Cleanup, Migration)
• Lead data discovery and profiling; build a data rationalization blueprint (canonical models, golden records, de duplication rules, survivorship logic).
• Define and govern data quality metrics (completeness, accuracy, timeliness), data lineage, and metadata standards.
• Architect migration waves for historical data (bulk loads + change data capture), including schema mapping, validation, and reconciliation.
• Select and guide tooling for ETL/ELT, CDC, data quality, MDM, and catalog/lineage.
• Implement archival/retention strategies and PII masking/tokenization aligned to regulatory needs.
• Application Re Write / Platform Modernization Experience
• Cloud, Security, and Compliance
• Lead cloud landing zone decisions (AWS/Azure), including networking, identity, secrets management, KMS, backup/DR, observability, and cost governance.

• Translate architecture into epics and technical stories; guide squads through iterative delivery and incremental cutovers.
• Run architecture reviews, threat modeling, and design clinics; resolve tech debt and make trade offs visible.

Mentor engineers; build a culture of observability, reliability, and automation
