# How to Set Up Job Architecture

> Define your organization's departments, job families, bands, skills, and responsibilities as one structure every role resolves against. Upcoming — consolidates today's separate role and jobs-data setup into one entity.

**Core.** Job Architecture is the org-wide structure every role reads against: departments, job families, a fixed set of seniority bands with your own title for each tier, skills grouped into clusters, responsibilities per band, and an optional overlay for regulated roles. It is **Upcoming**, not yet available.
