Your Opportunity at ARC’TERYX:

ARC’TERYX is growing -- in guest experience richness, in variety and sophistication of business models, in operational volume, and in automated workflows. The Technology group and the architecture practice are a key part of supporting and accelerating ARC’TERYX!

We believe that Enterprise Architecture, done right, is the pinnacle of software engineering practice; led by seasoned IT engineers that bring their experience and judgement to the craft of delivering functional designs and system strategies and have gravitated to the architecture career path. Forging technical plans in an evolving landscape and team collaboration -- from business leader to developer -- is core to our practice.

As we grow, enabling system conservations via domain-oriented functional interfaces and business events, with contract schema aligned with end-to-end information architecture and master data management is imperative. This enterprise architect position requires passion and demonstrated experience in leading and designing SOA and EDA design and contracts.

This role can be hired remote. Remote candidates must be committed to Pacific time zone hours aligned with the ARC’TERYX headquarters location in North Vancouver, B.C.

Meet Your Future Team:

The architecture team is an enabling group in our Technology department supporting our business application, service platform, and PMO teams. We research and produce architecture options for business projects and major initiatives, align projects with strategic priorities and policies, own and maintain explanatory views of extant systems, and guide tool and vendor strategies. Working directly with product management and tech engineering teams, we ensure architectural plans transition successfully to delivery and operation.

As a component of the over-arching engineering excellence practice, the architecture team are also key sponsors and stewards of the engineering guild that provides community, best practice, emerging trends, education opportunities, role definition, and career guidance to our larger family of tech engineers.

If you were in the Senior Enterprise Architect role now, here are some of the core activities you would be doing:

Designing omnichannel platform interfaces and business event schemas consumed by commerce and brand applications in the foundational areas of customer, product, payment, and order.

Leading and aligning data-mapping coherency and synergy end-to-end, bridging operational and analytic use cases; providing guidance to and enabling data teaming across platform engineering, master data and data analytics teams.

Informing and guiding information architecture practice and process need.

Championing EDA and facilitating implementation in our omnichannel platform and commerce and brand experience applications.

Defining and leading engineering guild activities and evangelizing engineering practice excellence

Here are some of the things you could be working on in the future:

Defining and driving cross-cutting initiatives such as carbon-emission and energy reductions in IT deployment and contributing to circularity goals in our overall supply chain and product lifecycle

Developing architecture group common practices and artifact styles

Advising and shaping developer services in support of agile-lifecycle software development and service deployment

Creating scoped logical architecture options for product leaders in the PMO process (select large projects) with trade-offs, required policies, risk advisement, and technology strategy alignment
