• Participate in discovery workshops, architecture reviews, and follow-up sessions.
  

• Present architectural decisions and rationale to various stakeholder groups.
  

• Align solution discussions with broader enterprise architecture directions.
  

Architecture & Design Documentation (approx. 50%)

• Develop Solution Outlines (SOs) from partially defined business inputs.
  

• Collaborate with technical leads, architects, and POs to validate solution approaches.
  

• Identify and document reuse opportunities and existing technical debt.
  

• Ensure SOs are updated to reflect evolving business and architectural requirements.
  

• Conduct impact assessments and provide documentation to support governance processes.
  

• Prepare and present documentation for architectural review boards.
  

• Maintain up-to-date documentation of solution architectures and related artefacts.
  

• Ensure traceability between business needs and architectural decisions.
  

Requirements:

• Proven experience as a Solution Architect, Technical Business Analyst, or a similar role.
  

• Strong technical background; experience in enterprise or solution architecture preferred.
  

• Experience working in the airline industry.
  

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  

• Experience working in agile development environments.
  

• Proficiency in preparing technical documentation accessible to both business and technical audiences.
  

• Ability to work independently while collaborating with cross-functional teams.
