Architecture & Design

• Target Architecture

• Architecture-as-Code enablement
• Solution Architecture

What I help design and shape

I work with architecture where it has to survive real-world constraints — existing systems, organisational boundaries, delivery pressure, and long-term ownership.

Typical work includes:

• Defining target architectures that teams can move towards
  Creating clear, realistic target states that balance business goals, technical constraints, and stepwise migration.

• Designing integration landscapes and API strategies
  Clarifying system responsibilities, data ownership, and integration patterns across complex system environments.

• Bringing structure to architectural decisions
  Establishing lightweight but durable decision practices using ADRs, principles, and guardrails — without slowing teams down.

• Enabling Architecture-as-Code
  Helping organisations document and evolve architecture using code, version control, and automation instead of static slide decks.

• Acting as solution architect in critical initiatives
  End-to-end responsibility for architecture across initiatives such as platform modernisation, ERP migrations, data flows, and digital product development.

How I approach architecture

I see architecture as a tool for clarity and alignment, not control.

My focus is on: - clear ownership and boundaries
- pragmatic patterns over theoretical purity
- decisions that can be explained, revisited, and evolved

Good architecture should make it easier for teams to deliver — and harder to make the same mistakes twice.
