Define clear service boundaries aligned to the enterprise context map and clarify integration seams between domains
Produce solution designs for modernization slices and product enhancements, balancing domain integrity with delivery constraints and operational risk
Plan and execute incremental modernization slices using pragmatic patterns such as strangler, parallel run, phased cutover, and contract-first migration

Define and steward API and event contracts for domain seams, including versioning rules and backward compatibility practices
Guide integration and interface design across synchronous APIs and asynchronous messaging based on workflow, reliability, and scalability needs
Provide hands-on architectural guidance that reduces coupling, improves modularity, and enables decomposition within team scope
Build POCs, demos, and reference implementations to validate approaches and deliver reusable patterns and starter templates
Review key designs and critical implementation decisions for maintainability, testability, performance, and operability
Ensure non-functional requirements are explicit and designed in, including availability, resilience, security, observability, and performance
Promote safe delivery practices including incremental rollout, feature flags where appropriate, safe migrations, and testing strategies aligned to risk
Participate in incident learning and translate recurring issues into improved patterns, guardrails, and playbooks
