The End User Computing (EUC) Architect is a senior technical leader responsible for the strategic design, governance, and evolution of the organization's end user technology ecosystem. This role serves as the primary subject matter expert for the Microsoft 365 platform and related productivity, collaboration, and security services — driving adoption, standardization, and innovation across the enterprise.

The EUC Architect partners closely with business stakeholders, IT operations teams, security, and enterprise architecture to ensure the end user environment is modern, resilient, and aligned with organizational objectives.

• Conduct architecture reviews for EUC-impacting projects and provide design authority sign-off

Security & Compliance

• Partner with the Information Security team to integrate Zero Trust principles throughout the EUC environment

• Architect solutions leveraging Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Microsoft Defender for Office 365, and the broader Microsoft Defender XDR suite

• Ensure EUC architecture aligns with regulatory and compliance requirements (e.g., SOX, HIPAA, FINRA, GDPR) as applicable to the business

Stakeholder Engagement & Leadership

• Act as a trusted advisor to business and IT leadership on EUC and M365 capabilities, roadmap, and investment priorities

• Collaborate with enterprise architecture, infrastructure, networking, and application teams to ensure integrated, cohesive solutions

• Mentor and provide technical guidance to EUC engineers and administrators

• Represent EUC architecture in governance forums, architecture review boards, and vendor engagements
