Job Description:

Enterprise Architect - Omni‑Channel Commerce & Order Management (Consultant)

Overview

We are seeking a senior Enterprise Architect to support critical Order Management System (OMS) initiatives across a large‑scale omni‑channel commerce ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of commerce architecture, AI-enabled platforms, and customer experience, shaping how orders flow from cart to checkout to fulfillment and warehouse execution, while supporting a rapidly maturing AI SDLC and agent-based architecture.

This position partners closely with Product, Engineering, and Business leaders to design scalable, resilient architectures for high‑volume digital commerce, retail, and fulfillment operations.

Key Responsibilities

Architecture Strategy & Domain Ownership

• Own and evolve the enterprise architecture for the OMS domain, including:

• Cart, checkout, promotions, payments

• Order orchestration, inventory visibility, fulfillment, and WMS integrations

• Define and maintain domain-level architectural roadmaps aligned to business priorities, scalability, and platform modernization.

Omni‑Channel Commerce & CX Enablement

• Architect seamless, end‑to‑end omni‑channel experiences across digital and physical channels.
• Ensure solutions support upper‑funnel customer experience decisions (cart, checkout, loyalty, personalization), not solely post‑purchase fulfillment.
• Collaborate with CX, Digital Product, and Retail stakeholders to enable conversion, flexibility, and reliability.

Modern Platforms, APIs & Distributed Architecture

• Lead the design and governance of modern, distributed architectures, including:

• Microservices and event-driven patterns

• API‑first platforms

• GraphQL schemas, routers, federation, and distributed graphs

• MCPs and domain-aligned service boundaries

• Guide integration patterns across commerce, OMS, fulfillment, and enterprise systems.

AI, GenAI & Agent-Oriented Architecture

• Support heavy AI adoption as the organization operationalizes its AI SDLC.
• Define architectural patterns for AI- and agent-based systems within the commerce and OMS domains.
• Manage and govern agent outputs, ensuring observability, reliability, and alignment to business workflows.
• Partner with Data and AI teams to embed AI/ML capabilities into personalization, conversion optimization, and operational decisioning.

Technology Evaluation & Architectural Leadership

• Lead or support RFI/RFP efforts for OMS, commerce, and adjacent platform capabilities.
• Serve as a senior architectural advisor to engineering teams, guiding design decisions, tradeoffs, and execution in complex environments.
• Provide architectural governance while enabling delivery teams to move quickly and independently.

Required Experience & Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in IT or Enterprise Architecture, with deep specialization in digital commerce or retail platforms.

• Proven experience supporting OMS domains in high‑volume e‑commerce or retail environments.

• Strong hands-on experience with:

• Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, and/or GCP)

• Microservices, APIs, and event-driven systems

• GraphQL and distributed schema architectures

• SQL and NoSQL data platforms

• Experience leading architecture in large, distributed organizations with multiple product and engineering teams.

• Strong ability to translate business requirements into scalable, durable technical solutions.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Nice to Have

• Experience with enterprise OMS platforms (e.g., Sterling or similar).
• Prior exposure to agent-based or AI-orchestrated systems in production.
• Background supporting loyalty, payments, or personalization platforms in retail or commerce ecosystems.
