As a Senior Advisor IT Architecture, you design IT solutions to meet the business needs of large-scale projects or programs using Desjardins Group’s architecture targets and shared platforms. You ensure consistency with the organization’s structure, as well as current and future needs, and ensure that new elements are compatible with existing architecture.
