Enterprise Architect

Overview

At Holley, we’re not just evolving IT, we’re engineering the blueprint for where the business is going. We're looking for an Enterprise Architect who can see across the whole chessboard, assess our current-state capabilities, and architect a future-ready roadmap that connects strategy to execution.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of technology, business, and transformation. You’ll lead the charge on capability mapping, architecture strategy, and designing the backbone that allows Holley to scale with speed, intelligence, and purpose.

If you're a systems thinker who can align teams, guide decision-making, and turn abstract vision into structured, prioritized action—we want you building with us.

Key Responsibilities

Capability Modeling & Analysis

• Conduct a comprehensive capability assessment of Holley’s current IT landscape—including people, process, technology, and data.

• Map business capabilities to current systems, tools, and pain points, identifying maturity gaps and duplication.

• Partner with functional leaders to define future-state capability needs aligned with Holley’s strategic objectives.

Capability Roadmap Development

• Translate findings into a clear, actionable capability roadmap, prioritized by business value, risk, and readiness.

• Align technology initiatives with enterprise goals, ensuring a phased, pragmatic approach to modernization.

• Build executive-friendly visuals and frameworks that make complex concepts clear and compelling.

Enterprise Architecture & Governance

• Define and evolve architecture standards, reference models, and guiding principles for enterprise technology decisions.

• Establish guardrails for system selection, integration patterns, and data flow across the organization.

• Collaborate with domain architects, IT leadership, and business stakeholders to ensure solution alignment and integrity.

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Act as a trusted advisor to business and IT leaders—connecting strategic intent to technical design.

• Facilitate workshops and discussions that cut across silos and focus on capability outcomes, not just tools.

• Influence investment decisions, tech stack choices, and sequencing based on enterprise-wide priorities.

Execution & Enablement

• Support project teams in aligning delivery with the broader architecture vision.

• Translate architecture into actionable workstreams, with clear definitions of success and value delivery.

• Ensure the capability roadmap is a living, breathing plan that evolves as the business grows.

What You Bring

• 8 years in enterprise architecture, solution architecture, or IT strategy roles.

• Demonstrated experience conducting capability modeling, maturity assessments, and roadmap development.

• Strong grasp of business architecture frameworks (e.g., TOGAF, BIZBOK) and modeling techniques.

• Experience aligning IT strategy with business outcomes—especially during periods of transformation or growth.

• Ability to communicate complex architectural concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.

• High EQ, low ego, and strong facilitation skills—you bring people together to solve big problems.

• Familiarity with SaaS ecosystems, integration patterns, data architecture, and digital platforms.

Preferred Extras

• Experience leading EA efforts in a manufacturing, consumer goods, or distribution environment.

• Background in change management or organizational design around digital capabilities.

• Exposure to product-centric or agile operating models.
