Senior Manager, Enterprise Architecture

Job Overview

As the Sr. Manager of Enterprise Architecture, you are accountable for Hubbell’s enterprise-wide architectural direction, including principles, governance, strategy, reference architectures, and lifecycle management. You lead a federated EA team, ensuring consistent cross-domain guidance across applications, data, security, infrastructure, and integration. Partnering with business and technology leaders, you translate strategy into actionable roadmaps that accelerate delivery while reducing risk and fragmentation. This role positions architecture as an enabler—not a bottleneck—through clear guidance and pragmatic governance.

A Day In The Life

• Partner with executive leadership and key stakeholders to translate business strategy into enterprise architecture direction, target states, and prioritized roadmaps.
• Define and run EA governance to promote speed, coherence, and value; ensure architectural decisions are made by the right role (enterprise, solution, domain) at the right time.
• Define and establish and maintain enterprise-wide principles, standards, and reference models that enable consistent solution design and reduce fragmentation.
• Facilitate cross-domain improvements; arbitrate architectural conflicts and tradeoffs across applications, data, security, infrastructure, and integration.
• Lead creation of enterprise modernization roadmaps and lifecycle strategies (e.g., platform and technology lifecycle management) aligned to business capabilities and risk posture.
• Ensure Solution Architects and Domain Architects have clear guardrails, patterns, and reusable assets so delivery teams can move quickly while remaining enterprise aligned.
• Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing EA core that serves as the custodian of enterprise direction, governance, standards, and best practices.
• Establish operating rhythms, forums, and collaboration mechanisms that align Enterprise Architects positioned in other teams (e.g., Security, Data) and architects embedded in delivery.
• Maintain clear role boundaries across Enterprise, Solution, and Domain Architects (and Domain SMEs), including expectations, artifacts, and engagement points.
• Promote an “interoperability first” mindset; prevent point-to-point sprawl through enterprise integration principles, reference architectures, and governance aligned with data and security.
• Ensure architecture guidance supports regulatory and privacy requirements (e.g., HIPAA/PHI), cybersecurity posture, resilience, and operational supportability.

What will help you thrive in this role?

• Experience:
• 15+ years in architecture roles with demonstrated enterprise-level impact (enterprise, solution, and/or domain architecture).
• 10+ years proven leadership of an EA function, including governance, standards, and roadmap development in a complex organization.
• Technical Expertise:
• Strong understanding across key enterprise domains: applications, integration, data, security, and infrastructure (breadth with the ability to go deep when needed).
• Familiarity designing and operating federated models that embed architecture into delivery without sacrificing enterprise coherence.
• Deep understanding of API management, legacy application support, and security best practices.
• Methodologies & Leadership:
• Proven experience with Agile frameworks, sprint planning, and delivery management.
• Demonstrated ability to balance business value, speed-to-delivery, risk, security/privacy, and operational supportability in architectural decisions.
• Executive-level communication and stakeholder management; ability to influence without direct control across federated teams.
