Moving from an Azure Architect to a Senior Azure Architect involves a shift towards more strategic planning, leadership, mentoring, and complex problem-solving. Senior Azure Architects are expected to provide high-level guidance, make critical architecture decisions, drive innovation, and ensure Azure solutions align with long-term business goals. They also engage in broader business discussions and possess a deeper understanding of advanced Azure features, scalability, and cost optimization while maintaining strong technical proficiency.
