Director, Enterprise Architecture
About The Position
The Enterprise Data Organization (EDO) is a unified team focused on transforming our exceptional data assets. Unity is built and reinforced at each layer of the organization, a principle that helps to establish our core purpose: ensuring coordination, collaboration, and transparency across the entire EDO Technology team. EDO Enterprise Architecture is responsible for ensuring a unified technology strategy that aligns with the goals of the EDO as a whole. This does not mean EDO Architecture will act as a singular body for reviewing individual solutions' architecture choices. Instead, this group will act as the centralization point for information sharing to minimize or eliminate repetition, drift, and other common problems with systems architecture at scale.
