## Description

We're looking for a Software Architect to define the architecture, design standards, and technical direction of SONIFI Health's software solutions. Reporting to the VP Healthcare Engineering, you'll work across Engineering, Product, Program Management, Infrastructure, and Security to design end-to-end solutions that balance innovation, cost, maintainability, performance, security, compliance, and business objectives.

This is a remote, individual contributor role with significant technical leadership responsibility. You won't directly manage a team, but you'll influence how solutions are designed and delivered, establish architectural best practices across the Healthcare product portfolio, and provide technical direction, coaching, and development to software engineers.
What you'll do

 * Define and document solution architectures for SONIFI Health applications, ensuring alignment with enterprise standards, performance requirements, regulatory needs, and business objectives.
 * Lead high-level design decisions for complex projects, setting direction for system components, integrations, and technology selection while maintaining architectural consistency across applications for scalability, maintainability, and interoperability.
 * Partner with Product Managers and Program Managers to ensure architecture supports business strategy, budget, and delivery timelines, and collaborate with Software Engineering teams to translate architecture into detailed technical designs and guide implementation throughout the development lifecycle.
 * Evaluate and recommend technologies and frameworks, including AWS cloud platforms, messaging systems, databases, and integration tools, and champion microservices and modular architectures where appropriate to support maintainability and independent scaling.
 * Provide architectural oversight for system performance, reliability, security, and compliance, including HIPAA and SOC 2, while working closely with Infrastructure and Security teams to validate system design, cloud configurations, and deployment strategies.
 * Contribute to architecture governance through review boards, documentation standards, and technical decision records that promote consistent, high-quality technical decisions across the Healthcare product portfolio.
 * Mentor and coach software engineers in design thinking, code quality, architectural awareness, and technical decision-making while providing technical leadership without direct supervisory responsibility.
 * Collaborate across Engineering, Product, Operations, and other cross-functional teams to support successful integrations with financial and operational systems, and communicate effectively with company leadership, customers, and vendors when needed.
