We are seeking a strategic and business-focused Solution Architect to join our Enterprise Architecture (EA) team in New York City. This role is onsite 3 days a week in Manhattan, 2 days a week remote. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in shaping process and strategy, rather than hands-on development or delivery. You will play a key role in building out the Architecture Portal, guiding long-term vision, and mentoring junior team members. This is not a delivery-focused role — there are no active sprints or engineering builds — but rather a strategic position focused on content deployment, stakeholder alignment, and enterprise-wide architecture enablement.

o Track progress toward EA goals, with a target of 80% portal completion by year-end.
Solutioning & Strategic Conversations:
o Facilitate solutioning discussions around portal design, long-term strategy, and business alignment.
o Translate architectural needs into actionable plans without direct engineering execution.
• Stakeholder Engagement & Communication:
o Set meetings with key stakeholders to drive historical context migration from Confluence into the EA portal.
o Communicate technical concepts in clear, business-friendly language to non-technical audiences.
Mentorship & Team Support:
o Provide guidance to entry-level team members working on database and code-related projects.
