Description
• Drives enterprise-wide adoption and optimization of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), AI/ML and Agentic AI capabilities — including services such as Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Azure AI Foundry, Azure AI Agent Service, and Google Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform — and modern integration patterns to enable secure, scalable, and intelligent solutions across the organization.
• Evaluates and applies industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices — including agentic AI orchestration frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, Microsoft Agent Framework (converging AutoGen and Semantic Kernel), Google Agent Development Kit (ADK), Strands Agents SDK, and OpenAI Agents SDK pragmatically to advance the World Bank Group's digital transformation and modernization objectives.
• Collaborates effectively with business leaders, solution architects, platform engineers, and Agile teams to co-create solutions — including AI agent workflows, RAG pipelines, multi-agent systems, and human-in-the-loop designs — that balance innovation, feasibility, and enterprise alignment.
• Demonstrates openness to feedback, fosters inclusive decision-making, and integrates diverse technical and business perspectives into architectural recommendations.
• Architects and governs enterprise integration strategies leveraging API management platforms (Azure API Management, AWS API Gateway, MuleSoft, Apigee), integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) solutions (Azure Logic Apps, Azure Integration Services, AWS Step Functions, Workato), and enterprise service buses to enable seamless, secure, and governed connectivity across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments.
• Leads the definition and governance of API-led connectivity patterns — including experience APIs, process APIs, and system APIs — establishing API lifecycle management standards, versioning strategies, contract-first design, and developer portal governance to promote reusability and interoperability across enterprise systems.
• Defines enterprise integration standards for data interoperability and exchange, including master data management (MDM) integration, ETL/ELT pipeline architectures (Azure Data Factory, AWS Glue, dbt), real-time data streaming, and canonical data models to ensure data consistency, quality, and traceability across enterprise systems and analytics platforms.
• Establishes and enforces integration security and governance standards — including OAuth 2.0, mTLS, API key management, rate limiting, payload encryption, and zero-trust network access — to ensure all enterprise integrations meet organizational security policies, data protection requirements, and regulatory compliance mandates.
• Oversees the creation and maintenance of comprehensive architecture documentation — including standards, blueprints, decision records, and solution guides — to promote knowledge sharing, institutional learning, and consistent adoption across teams.
• Manages and conducts architectural reviews and Well-Architected Framework assessments, ensuring adherence to enterprise standards, security requirements, and organizational goals.
• Evaluates vendor solutions, platforms, and tools through structured decision frameworks and comparative analyses to inform enterprise technology selection and adoption strategies.
• Manages collaboration with business leaders and program teams to elicit, analyze, and translate business requirements and strategic priorities into actionable technical specifications and architecture direction.
• Engages cross-functional teams — including security, compliance, operations, and platform engineering — to ensure holistic architectural coherence and adherence to enterprise guardrails.
Selection Criteria
• Enterprise Architecture certification required (TOGAF, EACOE, or equivalent issued by The Open Group).
• Strong hands-on experience designing and governing cloud reference architectures (AWS, Azure, or GCP) for large-scale, mission-critical environments.
• Proven experience driving enterprise-wide cloud adoption and optimization, ensuring scalability, resilience, and cost efficiency.
• Demonstrated expertise in integration strategies and patterns, including API-led, event-driven, and data-based architectures.
• Proven ability to monitor industry trends and emerging technologies and apply them pragmatically to enterprise contexts.
• Demonstrated ability to communicate complex architectural concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
1. Sense of urgency: Anticipate and quickly respond to the needs of internal and external stakeholders.

The World Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world. Our vision is to create a world free of poverty on a livable planet. We are not a bank in the common sense; we are made up of two unique development institutions owned by 189 member countries: the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). Each institution plays a different but collaborative role in advancing the vision of inclusive and sustainable globalization. The IBRD aims to reduce poverty in middle-income and creditworthy poorer countries, while IDA focuses on the world's poorest countries. Their work is complemented by that of the International Finance Corporation (IFC), Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) and the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID). Together, we provide low-interest loans, interest-free credits and grants to developing countries for a wide array of purposes that include investments in education, health, public administration, infrastructure, financial and private sector development, agriculture and environmental and natural resource management.
