Job Description:

Role Purpose

The Business Architect – Manufacturing & Quality is accountable for defining and evolving the target business capability architecture for Manufacturing and Quality within the end‑to‑end Supply Chain.

While functionally aligned to Manufacturing and Quality, this role operates horizontally across Plan, Source, Deliver, and Enterprise functions, ensuring that capabilities, data, and digital investments work together to deliver scalable, compliant, and resilient outcomes.

The role acts as a capability steward and architectural integrator, translating business strategy into coherent capability roadmaps and guiding cross‑functional initiatives through architecture governance.

Capability Architecture Ownership (Manufacturing & Quality)

Define, maintain, and evolve the L1–L3 business capability architecture for Manufacturing and Quality, independent of systems or organizational structure.
Ensure capability definitions are stable, outcome‑oriented, and reusable across regions and products.

Own capability dependencies and interfaces with adjacent domains (Plan, Source, Deliver, Finance).

Cross‑Functional & Value Stream Architecture

Actively operate across end‑to‑end value streams (e.g., Sense & Shape Demand, Promise to Customer, Manufacture & Release etc), identifying cross‑functional constraints and architectural trade‑offs.
Partner with Business Product Owners to ensure initiatives optimize value flow, not local functional efficiency.

Translate value‑stream performance gaps into capability‑level interventions.

Architecture Governance & ARB Leadership

Serve as the single accountable Business Architect for Manufacturing & Quality initiatives entering architecture governance forums.
Lead architecture assessments, ensuring alignment to:
- Enterprise capability standards
- Data and integration principles
- Target‑state ecosystem architecture.

Clearly articulate architectural impacts, options, and trade‑offs to senior stakeholders and ARB members.

Digital & Data Alignment

Connect Manufacturing and Quality ways of working to digital, data, and AI capabilities, ensuring solutions are compliant, scalable, and explainable.
Partner closely with Technology, Information, and DS/AI Architects to align on:
- Integration and data flows
- Data ownership and semantics

Innovation‑to‑scale pathways

Strategic Influence & Stakeholder Engagement

Act as a trusted advisor to Manufacturing and Quality leaders on capability maturity, investment prioritization, and architectural direction.
Influence across global, regional, and enterprise teams.
Maintain awareness of external trends and emerging technologies relevant to Manufacturing and Quality ecosystems.
