Create and maintain the modernization roadmap: iterative cutovers, strangler fig patterns, co existence strategies, and rollback plans.
Establish non functional requirements (NFRs) and SLAs/SLOs for availability, performance, security, compliance, resilience, and cost.
Data Strategy (Rationalization, Cleanup, Migration)
Lead data discovery and profiling; build a data rationalization blueprint (canonical models, golden records, de duplication rules, survivorship logic).
Define and govern data quality metrics (completeness, accuracy, timeliness), data lineage, and metadata standards.
Architect migration waves for historical data (bulk loads + change data capture), including schema mapping, validation, and reconciliation.
Select and guide tooling for ETL/ELT, CDC, data quality, MDM, and catalog/lineage.
Implement archival/retention strategies and PII masking/tokenization aligned to regulatory needs.
Application Re Write / Platform Modernization Experience
Cloud, Security, and Compliance
Lead cloud landing zone decisions (AWS/Azure), including networking, identity, secrets management, KMS, backup/DR, observability, and cost governance.
