Job description

Our large healthcare client is seeking a Solution Architect to support enterprise application architecture across public cloud and highly integrated platforms. This role sits within an Architecture team that is intentionally hands-off, focused on strategy, design, standards, and enablement rather than direct development.

This architect will partner closely with business stakeholders, engineering teams, and platform owners to design scalable, secure, and pragmatic solutions across a blended ecosystem of custom-built applications and out-of-the-box platforms, including Salesforce and other enterprise systems.

The ideal candidate brings deep experience in public cloud architecture, strong integration patterns, and the ability to guide teams through architectural decisions without being rigid or overly framework-driven. This environment favors architects who balance nimbleness with thoroughness and who enable teams to execute rather than owning delivery.

Key Responsibilities

Evaluate incoming business requests for technical feasibility, architectural fit, and strategic alignment

Design application and integration architectures across public cloud environments (AWS and Azure)

Develop and present multiple architectural options based on cost, scalability, security, and time-to-market

Create and maintain solution design documents, architectural diagrams, and standardized artifacts

Enable engineering and delivery teams with clear architectural guidance while remaining hands-off in execution

Drive integration strategy across Salesforce, HR systems (e.g., Dayforce), billing systems, and other enterprise platforms

Act as a bridge between technical teams and business stakeholders, translating business needs into scalable solutions

Requirements

7-10+ years of experience in software engineering, systems design, or application architecture

-Strong public cloud experience (AWS and/or Azure) with the ability to operate across both

-Salesforce knowledge with experience designing native or integrated solutions

-Experience with application integration patterns, including APIs and event-driven architectures

-Experience with Communication Platform as a Service (CPaaS) tools such as Twilio, SendGrid, or similar

-Strong communication skills and ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

-Experience designing architectures that blend custom-built applications with platform-based solutions -Experience in healthcare or other regulated enterprise environments

-Exposure to TOGAF or other architecture frameworks (pragmatic application preferred)

-Familiarity with modern architectural patterns (microservices, cloud-native, event-driven systems)

-Experience contributing to structured intake processes and architectural governance
