AWS experience is a plus ## Description As the Software Architect - Healthcare AI & Cloud Solutions, you will be responsible for developing Solution, Application, Performance and Enterprise architectures and designs for solutions that power EXL Health's digital transformation in the U.S. healthcare market. This role blends product leadership, technology execution, and business alignment to drive enterprise value through large scale, data driven, cloud-first solutions that support payment integrity and data intelligence use cases. You will be the force behind building modular, intelligent, and scalable platforms that enhance claims accuracy, reduce cost, and unlock new revenue streams., EXL never requires or asks for fees/payments or credit card or bank details during any phase of the recruitment or hiring process and has not authorized any agencies or partners to collect any fee or payment from prospective candidates. EXL will only extend a job offer after a candidate has gone through a formal interview process with members of EXL's Human Resources team, as well as our hiring managers., * The posted range is the hiring range for this role - a subset of the broader range available to employees over time - and reflects base salary across our national hiring scale. Final offers are based on several factors, including the candidate''s skills and experience, internal pay equity, work location, market conditions for the role, and the specific scope and responsibilities of the position. The top of the range is reserved for candidates who notably exceed the requirements; the lower end applies to those with less experience or fewer preferred qualifications. For positions based in higher-cost zones (e.g., California, New York, New Jersey), actual compensation may exceed the posted range; your recruiter will share specifics during the process. * Develop new designs, architectures, best practices, templates, standards, guidelines, models in direct support of 1 and 5 year payer market strategy and business growth targets. * Create application and database architectures for optimal scaling, configurability, compliance and modular re-use in both cloud (Azure and AWS, Databricks, SqlServer) and on-prem (Windows, dotNET) platforms. * Incorporate the latest in AI LLM approaches to augment the productivity, quality and efficacy of transactional applications and blending of unstructured data with structured data. * Assess existing applications and databases for scalability. Develop solutions for performance bottlenecks and growth. * Evaluate new AppDev technologies. * Develop various POC's for new applications, services and application components showcasing innovative approaches to scalable data architectures. * Evaluate business processes - manual and automated and recommend solutions for improved productivity, quality, flexibility, throughput. * Assist in business proposal development and presentation to management and customers. * Mentor, train and provide expert assistance to development teams. * Production Support - Level 3 as needed. * Assist in project planning and AGILE methodology implementation and daily planning and execution activities. * Act as the tech voice in executive meetings, cross-functional governance sessions, and client-facing solution presentations.
