- Establish and govern shared UI frameworks, reusable component libraries, design systems, accessibility standards, and performance best practices.
- Partner with modernization and reverse-engineering teams to ensure legacy application behavior, validations, workflows, and navigation patterns are accurately reflected in modern Angular experiences.
- Collaborate with Java and API architects to define front-end and back-end integration standards, REST service consumption patterns, caching strategies, and error-handling frameworks.
- Provide architectural oversight for AI-assisted development initiatives, including defining guardrails, quality standards, review processes, and acceptance criteria for AI-generated code.
- Lead architecture reviews, mentor development teams, resolve complex technical challenges, and drive delivery excellence throughout the modernization program.
