I'm a midlevel dev at a large company. I don't even have access to make a presentation to the true stakeholders. I can only make suggestions to my lead/boss and have them move it up the chain. On a side note, I've tried moving up th chain when I felt appropriate, but apparently a SQL injection vulnerability with full schema level privileges that was not being prioritized for remediation was not important enough to waste my department head's time.

Sometimes they take my suggestion, sometimes they are already working on it behind the scenes, and sometimes they go nowhere. In this case, they are already measuring most of the metrics like cycle times and mean time to recovery, etc. They already stated that they want microservices and have been building them out. The problem is that they implement it wrong and have no interest in re-architecting. Many of the apps are rewrites of legacy apps. Instead of evaluating the underlying business process, they just want us to build it the same in the new tech but use "microservices". The problem is that some of the business process was designed around the restrictions of the old technology or old industry norma. We should be evaluating the business process before building the technical system, otherwise we will continue to bake in these old constraints and not fully leverage the capabilities of new technology.

Edit: looks like I made someone angry since this is downvoted too.
