- Manage technical risks: Identify, escalate, and mitigate technical risks and blockers. You have the authority to pause development or escalate issues when non-functional requirements are at risk, always providing impact analyses and recommended solutions.
- Maintain the technology roadmap: Partner with clients to identify emerging technologies, recommend new tools, and propose long-term scalability options to keep solutions at the forefront of industry standards.
- Final sign-off: Provide final approval on all technical designs, architecture trade-offs, and deviation requests to ensure decisions support the project’s long-term health.
- Technical oversight: Act as the ultimate guardian of the project’s technical quality, with the authority to pause development when necessary.
