This role is an internal ISG Architecture development and enablement role, focused on building and evolving architecture governance, risk, and analysis tooling used by ISG Architecture and its partner teams across Super Departments.
The “Forward Deployed” aspect refers to deep, hands‑on engagement with internal stakeholders and architecture processes, not client products or external delivery. The outputs of this role are internal tools, platforms, patterns, and governance mechanisms, not customer‑facing applications.
This role exists to help the architecture function adapt governance to the speed and volatility introduced by GenAI, while remaining audit‑safe, principled, and scalable.
Must Have
- Build small services, scripts, CLIs, and internal utilities
- Comfortable with REST APIs, JSON, async workflows
- Can connect backend logic to lightweight UIs, notebooks, portals, or CLIs
- Systems and data integration mindset
- Pull data from APIs, documents, tickets, repositories, and architecture artifacts
- Combine structured, semi-structured, and unstructured inputs
- Secure handling of credentials and sensitive internal data
Expected
- Heavy, responsible use of AI coding assistants
- Strong human‑in‑the‑loop discipline
- Reviews and validates AI‑generated output
- Uses AI to accelerate thinking and execution, not replace judgment
- Pragmatic use of LLMs for governance enablement
- Surfacing governance signals and inconsistencies
- Assisting with evidencing and analysis, not making autonomous decisions
- Architecture, Governance & Risk Awareness
Elevated
- Solid understanding of: Architecture principles, standards, patterns, and guardrails
The intent behind governance controls:
- Where flexibility is appropriate
- Where evidencing and rigor are non‑negotiable
- Adaptive Governance & Risk Thinking
Awareness of multiple risk dimensions relevant to GenAI
- Model and data risk
- Security and privacy
- Vendor dependency and lock‑in
- Regulatory and audit sensitivity
Able to reason about risk‑based governance, including
- Team and capability maturity
- Scale and blast radius
- Novelty versus precedent patterns
Designs tools that
- Surface risk signals early
- Escalate only when defined thresholds are exceeded
Governance Tooling & Enablement Responsibilities
- Build and evolve internal architecture tooling that supports:
- GenAI intake, triage, and readiness assessment
- Architecture pattern alignment and deviation detection
- ADR creation, analysis, and comparison
- Architecture evidencing and audit support
- Exception tracking and learning loops for governance improvement
Governance is delivered through
- Tooling and automation
- Embedded guardrails “not through heavyweight process alone.”
What Makes This Role Distinct
- Embedded within ISG Architecture, not a delivery team
- Uses engineering to scale governance capability
- Enables many internal partner teams without owning external products
- Continuously adapts governance mechanisms to GenAI’s pace of change
What This Role Is Not
- Not a delivery or implementation role
- Not traditional centralized architecture review only
- It is an internal architecture enablement and development role, focused on making governance faster, smarter, and more adaptive through engineering
