Michael Poulin’s Summary

Professional 'pragmatic technologist actually caring about the business'

Enterprise level Solution Architect focusing on bridging between business needs (requirements) and technology capabilities. The core approach to the solutions is resourceful, integral and holistic based on risk mitigation and business objectives.

I specialize in distributed computing, asynchronous communication and integration, application security and service-oriented methodology. Within the latter, I address the full spectrum of business-technology governance (from business services/process/functions/ to domain design and implementation), service/process justification, definition and design, and architectural controls for service development process and implementation management.

I hold certification as TOGAF 8.1 Practitioner, SOA Licensed Architect (Senior Level), Sun Certified Architect for Java Technologies, and IT Project+ Certified Professional manager.

I am savvy in ITIL v.3, programme management, vendor/client relationship management, Business-IT architecture collaboration, EA governance, integration and information functions, cross-functional integration and remote (off-shoring) project delivery process.
