- Next-Gen Platform Implementation: Provide architecture leadership for implementation of iPaaS, MDM, DXP, IAM, API management, cloud, data platforms, automation, intelligent document processing, and AI-enabled capabilities.
- Discovery & Stakeholder Alignment: Facilitate discovery, capability assessments, current-state/future-state mapping, and decision alignment across business, product, engineering, security, data, and operations teams.
- Executive Communication: Prepare concise recommendations, roadmaps, trade-off analyses, and decision summaries for senior leadership and governance forums.
- Business Case & Value Realization: Partner with business and finance teams on investment justification, total cost of ownership, ROI modeling, and measurable business outcomes.
- Delivery Partnership: Work closely with product, program, engineering, and vendor teams to keep implementation aligned to architecture intent, business outcomes, quality, timelines, and constraints.
- Modernization & Reuse: Identify opportunities to simplify, consolidate, modernize, and reuse technology capabilities across the enterprise.
- Risk, Security & Compliance: Identify technical, security, compliance, data, and operational risks and recommend practical mitigation strategies.
- Architecture Artifacts: Create practical artifacts such as capability maps, target-state diagrams, integration patterns, reference architectures, decision records, and roadmaps.
- Standards & Best Practices: Promote architecture standards, patterns, and practices that enable secure, consistent, and effective use of enterprise platforms.
Qualifications:
- Education : Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field; Master's degree preferred.
- Experience : Minimum of 10 years in IT architecture, including 5+ years in healthcare, diagnostics, biotech, or life sciences, with demonstrated experience implementing modern enterprise platforms.
- Skills : Strong architecture, analysis, communication, and stakeholder alignment skills; practical experience with enterprise architecture frameworks such as TOGAF; exposure to cloud, APIs, data platforms, Salesforce, Oracle, laboratory systems, portals, and SaaS ecosystems.
- Life Sciences Knowledge : Strong understanding of healthcare, diagnostics, biotech, or life sciences operating models, including regulatory, privacy, data, and interoperability considerations such as HIPAA, PHI, and FHIR.
- Technologies : Hands-on implementation exposure to iPaaS, MDM, DXP, IAM, API management, cloud, data platforms, intelligent document processing, AI-enabled workflows, and related integration and automation patterns.
Preferred Attributes:
