Why this job matters

The Global Fabric Tribe Architect is the role that is shaping the technical direction for the new collection of network-as-a-service product offerings for Business.

The Tribe Architect is a critical join between delivery and architecture.

This role matters because it is the technical leadership of every tribe, it is the thinker that makes sure we have the right roadmap that joins the technical strategy with the business outcomes for the tribe.

It is key as it's moving the architecture decision making closer to then work, speeding up and simplifying making sure the architecture is being rolled out.

The TA maintains the decisions and backlog of technical debt too, for decisions made to not build strategically the TA will be accountable for those decisions balancing the business outcomes vs goal of building the strategic and ensuring we don't have to build tactically because we didn't have the right roadmap.
