Here's what you can expect on a typical day:

• Blueprints and Strategy. You will influence and govern current and future architectural blueprints and promote architectural initiatives that generate revenue, improve efficiency, and support our business strategy. You will ensure that what we do solves both enterprise and local needs.
• Scrum. You'll start every day with a scrum, working together to understand responsibilities, identify issues, and communicate design and coding priorities.
