Architecture is a core function in Kenvue Tech & Data (KTD), whose purpose is to increase the strategy-to-execution velocity. We provide technology and strategic leadership to all product teams, lines of businesses, rationalization efforts, and modernization programs across the organization, while helping accelerate digital transformation initiatives. Further, to enhance Kenvue's competitiveness and achieve our business goals, we support technology-driven changes and emerging-tech adoption.

• You will play the pivotal role of designing and implementing architecture solutions that support our Commercial function globally. On Kenvue's Architecture team, you will contribute to building roadmaps in partnership with product-owners and help them maintain cutting-edge technological approaches.
• You will collaborate to optimize the application, cloud, security and data architectures that impact our Commercial technologies, while ensuring they are efficient and cost-effective.

Key aspects of the role will include defining standards, developing policies, managing reviews, and offering a blend of technical expertise with architectural acumen.
• You will ensure alignment with our business objectives and technology goals, when designing solutions or frameworks. To communicate your architecture decisions and strategies effectively, you will create technical collateral, not limited to C4 models, ADR, UML, ER, pipeline charts, and other relevant articles, guides, schemas, imagery or diagrams. You would provide participative consulting throughout the lifecycle of projects you manage, offering guidance on emerging technologies and practices.

• Upholding our commitment to security, you will ensure that all architectures meet the highest standards, particularly with data protection and compliance. Furthermore, the role extends beyond individual contribution, to guide KTD teams in fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation.

• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, with a flair for communicating across diverse teams.
• Strong proficiency in a modern programming language, SQL scripting, infra-as-a-code service, data and event streaming platform, microservices containerization, and orchestration tool.
