• Support architecture governance, design reviews, integration testing, performance testing, production readiness, cutover, and operational stabilization
• Guide solution development teams through architectural decisions while ensuring alignment with enterprise standards
• Design AI-enabled capabilities using Microsoft Copilot, Azure OpenAI, or Azure AI Services so they can be disabled or restricted without impacting mission-critical operations
• Ensure Government data is protected and not transmitted to external AI services or used for model training without explicit authorization
