Yes, she's Sumeru's Archon. Our god, as it were, and our leader. The Sages also oversee the Akademiya, but they're outranked by the Archon, naturally.

[ she is a god, after all.. not that that matters very much to tighnari, personally, but he does respect and believe in nahida. that she's a god is irrelevant, it's her heart and intent that matter most. ]

No archons in your Fodlan, I take it?
